20 checkpoints between your client and a funded business
Lenders run through a compliance checklist before reading a single financial statement. Most declines happen here, before creditworthiness is even evaluated. Once all 20 checkpoints clear, clients move into full pre-qualification for 20+ funding programs.
Lenders check compliance before they check credit
When a lender receives an application, underwriters run AI compliance screening before a human ever looks at the file. Gaps in entity structure, business address, licensing, or bureau registration trigger immediate soft declines.
The frustrating part: these are all fixable. The AI 150-point business scan identifies every gap and walks clients through correcting each one.
Without compliance review
A business with excellent personal credit and solid revenue is auto-declined in 48 hours because their DUNS number doesn't match their business address, or their entity isn't registered in the state where they operate.
With Bankable IQ compliance
The proprietary Bankable Method clears all 20 checkpoints before the client applies anywhere. The lender sees a clean, complete, consistent profile that signals low risk from the first automated scan.
