NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Sep 11, 2013) - Small business lender QuarterSpot revealed that it has funded more than $1M in loans within two months of its launch. Small business owners have responded to QuarterSpot's lower cost loans and more favorable terms as a way to avoid the high cost of capital offered by merchant cash advances and most other online lenders. <\/p>\n
Through its use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in underwriting, QuarterSpot can reduce borrowing costs by as much as 85% compared to other well known online lenders. Further, QuarterSpot does not require small business owners to provide personal guarantees. <\/p>\n
\"QuarterSpot offers a lower-cost loan that is custom designed to meet the needs of small business owners,\" said QuarterSpot CEO and co-founder Adam Cohen. \"By incorporating Artificial Intelligence into our platform, we can constantly evaluate and improve our underwriting to more accurately gauge risk and reduce borrowing costs.\" <\/p>\n
QuarterSpot's innovative AI-driven underwriting platform will incorporate millions of pieces of real time data from business bank accounts, customer reviews, social media, and more to execute a pre-approval decision in milliseconds. This is significantly faster than traditional lenders that can take up to six months to make a decision. The QuarterSpot AI is also able to learn on the fly by monitoring loan repayment and trends to improve its scoring and approval terms in real time. <\/p>\n
\"The resulting organic data set is much deeper and broader than available commercial credit scores and gives us a more detailed picture of the creditworthiness of a business,\" continued Cohen. <\/p>\n
Through this use of AI-driven underwriting and as one of the only online lenders to amortize interest on loans, QuarterSpot offers a much lower cost of capital for small business owners. Other QuarterSpot loans features include: <\/p>\n
