Corefin - Open-source lending platform

✨Star us on Github!

Hey YC! We’re building Corefin, an open-source loan management system that helps companies build and launch lending products.

Problem

With the growing popularity of embedded lending, many tech marketplace and fintech companies want to offer lending products to their customers. For example, Shopify, DoorDash, and Flexport offer loans to their merchants.

However, building the software infrastructure to launch a lending product is extremely complex and technically challenging— existing solutions in the market, which include traditional loan management systems (LMS), are inflexible and hard to integrate with.

When Hubert’s team evaluated different software building out consumer lending at Square, he learned that even the best solutions out there were hard to use, had poor uptime, and could not handle the performance and reliability requirements of a 24/7 e-commerce business.

Solution

We’re building a flexible and scalable way for companies to build lending products. Corefin has all the necessary features to build a powerful and compliant lending service in-house, including loan management, servicing, and reporting.

Also, we’re making Corefin open-source to give developers complete transparency and control to customize the code to their needs, with a simple and clean API spec.

About Us

We’re both software engineers with extensive experience in distributed systems, having worked at companies like Afterpay/Square, Uber, Rubrik, and Palo Alto Networks.

Hubert previously was a tech lead at Square, helping build, launch, and scale the loan engine powering Square’s lending program from 0 to over $300M GMV/year. Albert previously worked at Uber, where he helped build their membership service (Uber One).
