Partnership underscores the value of lending APIs in accessing real-time and forward-looking accounting data, improving access to Small- and Midsize Business (SMB) loans
ForwardAI, a fintech providing aggregated access to accounting & business data and analysis, announced its partnership with Swoop Funding, the one-stop money shop for businesses in Australia, Canada, Ireland, and the UK. Through the partnership, Swoop Funding will be augmenting its current data collection process and leverage ForwardAI’s premium API for access to normalized and standardized accounting data.
The partnership enables Swoop Funding to implement a more secure, faster, and more accurate lending workflow that also creates a positive experience for potential borrowers. Instead of relying on manual documentation or a simple connection to one or more accounting platforms, ForwardAI’s Precise API streamlines access to critical financial data points and analysis from over 17 accounting software companies. By standardizing and normalizing the data, Precise provides it in one coherent format, which makes it easy for lenders to customize the information they’re seeking. By utilizing historical, real-time, and predictive performance data, Swoop will be able to determine a business’s future viability more accurately and therefore expand access to small business loans.
