Onyx IQ — make every deal follow your credit

Trusted by lenders running high-velocity, high-volume operations

Why funders LEAVE SPREADSHEETS

Spreadsheets are costing you deals

Spreadsheets and email get you off the ground, and they start breaking the moment your volume climbs. Every deal lives in a tab and a thread, so the manual work between them is what decides your ceiling.

 

No real system of record

You're running the book on spreadsheets and email. Nothing is the single source of truth, so numbers drift and you can't trust what you're looking at.

 

One wrong cell costs you

Almost every business spreadsheet has errors in it. In a lending book that's a misrouted ACH pull, a deal approved on the wrong number, or a disclosure that never makes the file.

 

ACH and servicing by hand

Manual ACH and servicing eat the whole day, and the moment volume climbs, the process breaks and missed pulls start costing you money.

 

Underwriting with no rules

Underwriting is manual and inconsistent with no enforced credit box. Two analysts price the same deal differently, and bad paper gets through.

 

Syndication in spreadsheets

Investor allocations live in error-prone spreadsheets, and your capital partners have zero visibility. One wrong formula and you pay the wrong person.

 

Reporting always behind

Reporting runs days late, so every audit or capital-partner request turns into a scramble that makes your shop look unready for their money.

 

It all breaks at volume

A spreadsheet holds up at twenty deals. At eighty you're hiring people just to keep the book moving, and pulls, renewals, and payouts start slipping through.

 

No clean audit trail

State disclosures and edits aren't tracked in one place, so when an examiner or partner asks who changed what, you can't show it without a manual hunt.

Why Onyx IQ is better THAN SPREADSHEETS

Why funders move to Onyx IQ

Spreadsheets got you this far, and they can't take you further. Here's what your operation looks like once every deal runs on one system instead of tabs and email threads.

 

A live command center for your whole book

Active RTR, today's payments, and your top industries update in real time. The number is always live on the screen, instead of a figure someone rebuilds in a sheet every week.

You stop rebuilding the picture by hand, and your source of truth is always current.
 

One system for the entire deal

Every stage, from the first submission to the last payment, runs on one deal record. Nothing gets copied from a tab to an email to a portal, and no deal shows paid in one place and past due in another.

You run the whole book from one screen and stop losing hours to reconciliation.
 

Underwriting rules you change yourself

Your credit policy lives in no-code scorecards that approve, decline, or refer each deal the same way every time. No more eyeballing a deal off a line in a spreadsheet.

Every deal gets underwritten consistently, and you can change the rules the day the market moves.
 

Native syndication with an investor portal

Allocations calculate on their own and your investors log into a portal to see positions and statements. No allocation tab, no payout formula by hand, no investor calling to ask where their money is.

You raise and deploy more capital without rebuilding the split in a spreadsheet.
 

Reporting your investors trust

Payment reports, collection curves, month-end, and borrowing base pull straight from the live book. When an investor or partner asks for numbers, they're ready, instead of a weekend spent rebuilding them in Excel.

You hand over clean, current numbers on demand and look ready for bigger money.
 

Built by funders, proven by audit

Onyx IQ was built by people who have funded deals and passed real audits, so the controls a spreadsheet can't give you are already in place: SOC 2 Type II, automatic state disclosures, and a full audit trail.

You get the record and controls examiners and partners expect, without building any of it yourself.

Frequently asked questions

What is Onyx IQ? +

Onyx IQ is an AI-powered, end-to-end lending platform for MCA and alternative lenders. It runs the full lifecycle of a deal on one system, from origination and underwriting through funding, servicing, collections, syndication, and reporting, so your whole book lives in one place instead of a stack of spreadsheets and email threads.

How do I know I’ve outgrown spreadsheets? +

The usual signs are missed ACH pulls, a book no one fully trusts, month-end that eats nights, and an investor or capital partner asking for a report you can’t pull quickly. Spreadsheets work fine at low volume, and they start breaking as your deal count climbs. If reconciliation and manual entry are now capping how much you can fund, you’ve outgrown them.

How do I move my deals off spreadsheets and into Onyx IQ? +

A dedicated onboarding team maps your book straight out of your spreadsheets, including active deals, balances, and payment schedules, and sets up your credit rules with you. Everything gets checked against your spreadsheets before cutover, so nothing goes live until the numbers tie out. There’s no legacy platform to untangle, so it’s lighter than a typical migration.

Is Onyx IQ overkill for a small or growing shop? +

No. Onyx IQ is built for funders who have outgrown spreadsheets but don’t want the cost or setup burden of a heavy enterprise build. You go live on the parts you need now, and the rest of the platform is there as you scale, so you’re not paying for complexity you won’t use yet.

Do I need to be technical to run it? +

No. Your credit rules run in no-code scorecards, and your team configures the platform without an engineer. The onboarding team does the setup with you, and after go-live, operators run the platform day to day, not developers.

How long does it take to go live? +

Most funders go live in about two to four weeks. A cleaner, smaller book moves faster. Your deployment covers the full setup, including configuration, contract mapping, and integrations, and a dedicated onboarding contact works with your team through the whole process.

Does Onyx IQ handle syndication and investor reporting? +

Yes. Onyx IQ tracks participants and ownership, calculates allocations through an automated ledger, and gives investors a portal where they can see balances, deals, and downloadable statements. Your investor numbers stop living in a fragile spreadsheet, and repayment activity flows into the records on its own.

Does Onyx IQ support more than MCA? +

Yes. Beyond MCA, Onyx IQ supports commercial products such as SBA loans, commercial mortgages, equipment finance, and term loans, using the same audit trail, SOC 2 Type II coverage, and configurable scorecards. You can expand into new products without moving your operation onto another platform.

Is Onyx IQ compliant and secure? +

Onyx IQ automatically generates the disclosures required for each state, keeps a full audit trail of changes made inside the platform, and uses role-based access to limit who can see and change deal and borrower information. It also holds a SOC 2 Type II report, which gives institutional partners third-party documentation of the controls around the system.
