Company
Lendflow
Embedded lending infrastructure for software companies
We build an API and platform that lets software companies add lending services directly into their products. Instead of users having to seek loans elsewhere, our infrastructure helps companies offer capital to their customers where they already interact with the product. This drives engagement, retention, and revenue growth for the software company, while helping their users access credit without friction.
We live in Austin, TX, and plan to base the company here after YC.
Austin has become a strong hub for fintech and software talent and gives us access to the right engineers and partners. It's also where both founders live and work, so it makes sense to stay local and grow the team here.
