Why this exists

Why the usual lenders say no.

Your revenue is real. The problem is the form. Here is why traditional underwriting turns away healthy operators in this space, and what we do differently.

01

Insufficient years in business

Traditional banks often require five years of operations to approve equipment loans.

We work with lenders who look at machine utility and shop throughput potential.
02

Specialized equipment concerns

Generalist banks struggle to value niche CNC or laser cutting machinery for collateral.

Our partners specialize in fabrication and understand the market value of your assets.
03

Imperfect credit history

Traditional lenders use rigid credit scoring models that ignore shop performance.

Lenders here review overall business health and equipment ROI, not just FICO scores.
