Peer to Peer Lending Automation - The Key to Investing in Lending Club
Over the last couple of months, we have featured 3 tools for automating your investments in Lending Club.

Q & A with BlueVestment - FREE Automated Investing Tool for LendingClub
BlueVestment is a third party tool for automation with LendingClub. Recently, they have made their product completely free for investors. Not only does the tool allow you to select your own custom filters, but it also ties into P2P-Picks for loan picking - a feature that I’m currently using. (If you haven’t heard of Bryce Mason from P2P-Picks, you may also be interested in the podcast he did with LendAcademy here)
Nathan from BlueVestment was nice enough to participate in our third part in a series of posts about third party tools. If you have any questions for Nathan, please feel free to post in the comments.

LendingRobot - Introduction Video
Automated Investing with LendingRobot
This is our first video featuring LendingRobot, which is an automated tool for investing in Lending Club. They just opened registration to the public a few weeks ago and my investing in Lending Club has become a lot easier. I’m starting to realize just how nice it is to not have to login to Lending Club during the feeding times.
If you missed any of our coverage of LendingRobot, you can view all of our content (including our Q & A session) here: http://www.peersociallending.com/lendingrobot
If the feedback is positive, we will try and feature short videos of many automated investment tools for Lending Club/Prosper. As always, please feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.
