AI is embedded in every layer of our data gathering, processing, and analysis.

Data & Analytics
Data & Analytics
Our proprietary database, the Capital Finder, is the most powerful alternative finance database in emerging markets. With over 7,000 investors from around the world — and thousands of businesses being added to the database — we have created an ecosystem that allows us to analyze macroeconomic trends, spot opportunities for investors to capitalize on, and match SMEs with the appropriate funders.
Digitization

We take paper files and old disjointed data and bring it together under one central, comprehensive system. This allows organizations to increase efficiency and transparency by making records rapidly available in an intuitive interface, and sharing siloed data with other departments, third parties, and the public.
