AI-powered underwriting for SME merchant cash advances

Calion preview

Problem

Traditional merchant cash advance (MCA) underwriting takes 3-5 days and relies on manual review of bank statements. SMEs need faster decisions. Investors need real-time portfolio visibility and risk metrics.

Approach

Built ML pipeline that scores live SME transaction data (revenue patterns, cash flow volatility, seasonal trends) to generate same-day offers. Investor dashboard shows portfolio health, repayment curves, and deal-level performance. Explainable scoring prevents black-box decisions.
