The problem

Why it matters

Eligibility is checked late and by hand against a long SOP; an ineligible loan found at default can cost the lender its guaranty.

What it does

How the solution handles it

Agents read the application, map every owner and affiliate, test size against the NAICS standard or the alternative ($20M net worth, $6.5M net income), and check use of proceeds and ineligible business types, each finding cited to the SOP. An SBA underwriter reviews and signs the checklist.

How it works

How an application moves

Five agents read the file, map owners and affiliates, test size and use of proceeds, and draft credit elsewhere; an SBA underwriter signs.

What it changes

The difference, in numbers.

Every figure is labelled: a target the solution is built to, an estimate, a typical published result, or a proven one.
