We had several growth tactics we wanted to try going into Q3 of 2022. As we started executing and growing, we got an M&A offer we couldn't refuse. The extra cash in our bank gave us more confidence going into the negotiation. We got a higher valuation and closed last month. Founderpath's capital was hugely strategic during our M&A process. They let us pay off early without paying any fines once we finalized our acquisition," Josh, SaaS Founder

Founderpath couldn't be an easier. I have experience with some of their competitors and they are leaps and bounds better. Here's what stood out:1. They took time to understand my business and our unique dynamics2. They offer a pro-rated early payoff schedule3. They are extremely responsive to communication (even on weekends)4. Most important: the cost of capital was about 20% lower than what competitors quoted.So far, its been a joy to work with founderpath.

Founder and CEO of ZoneReporting & Tactical Connect
After interviewing 23 lenders - it was wonderful to meet Founder Path. Their terms, process and understanding of speed was simply incomparable. Within 1 week we had completed diligence (and we aren't a small SaaS company). A few days later a seven figure wire hit our bank account and we were able to turn on the growth engine! In a nut shell, this is how lending should be done - great terms, super fast diligence and super fast to close.
