Go Beyond Commercial was a specialist lending offer for LMG brokers, and from 1 July 2026 it operates as Thinktank by LMG: the former Go Beyond team now sits under that brand on LMG’s broker pages. So if you were searching for a standalone broker portal, the honest answer is that the offer lives inside LMG’s broker resources today.
This article explains what changed with the rebrand, what brokers actually get from Thinktank by LMG, and how to work the arrangement well now that the old name has gone.

What Thinktank by LMG offers
Thinktank by LMG is an LMG-broker-only specialist lending offer covering commercial, SMSF, private and residential lending. Because access runs through LMG membership rather than open accreditation, the value starts with your aggregator relationship rather than a public sign-up page.
LMG’s current broker material lists what supports a specialist file: scenario support, BDM backing, product and rate information, guidance on niches, team contacts and a resource centre. For commercial deals especially, scenario conversations before lodgement are where these offers earn their keep, because specialist credit decisions turn on details a generic portal would never capture.
What never existed in the first place
Older articles described a configurable analytics dashboard, a built-in CRM database and secure document storage as portal features. Current official material does not substantiate any of that, so treat those descriptions as fiction about the old offer too. Claims of a forty per cent workload reduction or a fifteen-per-cent lift in deal closure had no supporting source when they appeared, and they should not shape your expectations now.
If you want those capabilities around your brokerage, build them separately. When deal details live only in someone’s head, client relationships suffer, so build that visibility separately: a dedicated customer relationship management system paired with connected accounting software will do far more for file visibility than any lender login ever promised.
Working the offer well today
- Confirm your LMG access covers Thinktank by LMG and save the team contacts listed on the broker page.
- Take borderline scenarios to scenario support before quoting anything to the client.
- Pull current rates and niche guidance from the resource centre rather than older saved documents.
- Log every specialist-file outcome in your own records so you can see which niches suit your clients.
- Update any internal checklists that still say Go Beyond so your team quotes the current name.
The common mistake after a rebrand is assuming everything written under the old name still describes something real. Half-remembered portal features can waste hours of hunting for logins that do not exist. When in doubt, ask your LMG BDM directly what the current process is, then record the answer for your whole team.
A specialist lending partner used well strengthens your standing with commercial and SMSF clients, because they judge you by whether their unusual deal found a home. If your book includes those files, contact your LMG BDM this week, confirm the Thinktank by LMG process end to end, and send one live scenario through scenario support to see the response quality for yourself.
