Direct small business lending

Capital that moves with
your busy season.

Flexible notes for capacity-constrained small businesses, with repayment tied to what you actually bring in, not a fixed date on a calendar.

The product

One idea, built around your business

Instead of a fixed monthly payment that doesn’t care whether business is slow or booming, repayment scales with your revenue. When it’s a good month, you pay more. When it’s not, you pay less. And every note is structured around the shape of your specific season, not a template.

Flexible repayment

Flexible by design

Whether you need capital for a busy season, new equipment, inventory, or just breathing room ahead of your best months, terms are set individually around your revenue pattern and what you’re financing, not a fixed product menu.

Who we fund

Good fit looks like this

We’re not underwriting a credit score. We’re underwriting your season.

You’re turning away demand, not chasing it: a busy season you can’t fully capture without more capital.

Capital has a direct line to revenue: inventory, a rental fleet, equipment that pays for itself once it’s running.

A year or more of trading history we can actually verify against your POS or books.

Room in a slow month: enough cushion that a quiet stretch doesn’t put repayment at risk.

Process

Trailing revenue, seasonality, and what a slow month looks like for you.

One note, one structure, explained plainly before you sign anything.
