The AI diligence team
for asset‑based lenders.

Agents check every invoice, payment and unit of stock against the borrower’s books, bank and shipping data. See risk earlier, with evidence, in a fraction of the time.

The difference

Your software trusts the numbers.
Credbase checks them.

A few invoices, confirmed by phone.

Every invoice traced to order, shipment and payment.

→ Catch bad collateral before you fund it.

Deep testing waits for the next field exam.

A full re-check in less than 15 minutes, whenever you need it.

→ See trouble months sooner.

Borrower’s numbers, spot-checked by hand.

Every check run twice. Every flag backed by evidence.

→ Decisions you can defend.

Analysts spend hours keying agings.

Agents do the legwork. Analysts review the flags.

01

Connect

The borrower connects books, bank and shipping data once, read-only. Make it a loan condition, like cash control.

02

Rebuild

Agents rebuild receivables, cash and stock from source transactions, not the borrower’s spreadsheet.

03

Trace & Verify

Every invoice traced to order, shipment and payment. Ineligibles, liens and stock verified too.

04

Report

Re-run it in minutes whenever you need. See what changed and why, then approve.

What we check

Six risks, checked on every
borrower, every cycle.

Each with the evidence attached.

Every invoice, with evidence

Order, delivery proof and payment history. Every open invoice, not a sample.

Grow your book

Not your collateral team.

Each analyst covers more borrowers. Smaller loans become worth doing.

What you get

Your borrowing base,
verified in minutes.

Every check, on every invoice, with your rules applied. Run it whenever you need it.

  • Check before a draw or renewal

    A full re-check takes minutes, not hours.

  • Catch risk while there’s time to act

    Alerts when availability nears a trigger, or the numbers stop adding up.

  • Lend on new invoices sooner

    Availability grows as soon as invoices are verified.

Plus a plain-language review each cycle, with evidence behind every line.

AI you can audit.

Lenders are right to be careful with AI. Credbase is built to be checked, line by line.

  1. 01
    It flags. You decide.

    Availability changes only when a person approves.

  2. 02
    Every finding has a receipt.

    Each flag links to the invoice, shipment, bank line or filing.

  3. 03
    Rules where rules work.

    Your formula runs as plain rules. AI only reads and matches messy data.

  4. 04
    Every check runs twice.

    Independent agents redo the work. Disagreements go to a person.

  5. 05
    Proven on your loans first.

    Tested on closed borrowing bases, against your own exam findings.

AI can slip on a single try. Lending can’t. So every check is repeated, cross-examined and backed by evidence you can open.

FAQ

Questions lenders
ask us.

Does Credbase replace our ABL software?

No. Your system stays the record. We check what goes into it.

Do you replace field exams?

No. We do the desk work continuously, so visits focus on counts and judgement.

Do you value inventory?

No. Appraisers set value. We check that the stock reported adds up.

What if a borrower won’t connect their systems?

Exports work too. Many lenders make a read-only connection a loan condition.

How do you stop the AI from making mistakes?

Every check runs twice, plain rules run the formula, and every flag shows its evidence. Nothing changes without your approval.

What data do you access, and who sees it?

Read-only and borrower-authorised. Encrypted, used only for your review, never used to train shared models.

How long does setup take?

Cloud accounting connects in minutes. We draft your rules from the credit agreement; you confirm.

What does it cost?

Priced per borrower. The pilot is free.
