Why We Built Liminal

Getting financing shouldn't mean filling out 15 different applications or being sold a product you don't understand. You shouldn't have to wait as you apply to multiple lenders. We built Liminal to fix that. Our platform matches you with lenders based on one application centered around your industry, revenue, and goals. You fill out one application. You get multiple options with real answers.

Stop wasting time on endless applications. Fill out one and be done.

Who's Behind Liminal

“There's gotta be a better way to do this. That's what I said right after hearing how people get business financing. It felt almost like that Six Million Dollar Man quote, 'we have the technology,' you know? I didn't understand why people weren't making this easier. It should be simple, and that's why I decided to do it.”

— Max Black, Founder

We decided to take our experience in tech and finance to ride the wave that's pulling financing into the future.
