Idea Financial, a small business lender for plaintiff law firms, partnered with Cobalt Intelligence to automate their verification process. The API integration led to increased efficiency in their high-volume operation and was implemented faster than with traditional bureaus. This demonstrates the value of API-based verification in alternative lending, especially with the shift towards permission-based and cashflow data.

1West's marketplace approach and ABLE software automate the lending process, making it more efficient for both borrowers and lenders.

Their partnerships and real-time offers set them apart from other marketplaces. Integration with Cobalt API further streamline the process. Overall, 1West's data-driven approach and focus on automation make them an attractive partner for lenders.
