LendSaaS Embeds AdvanceIQ.ai’s SRI to Help Originators Filter, Price, and Allocate with Confidence

NEW YORK, April 29, 2025 — AdvanceIQ.ai, a data intelligence platform powering smarter risk assessment and portfolio optimization in the SMB alternative lending sector, today announced a strategic partnership with LendSaaS, a leading Merchant Cash Advance (MCA) origination and servicing platform. Through this partnership, AdvanceIQ.ai’s SMB Risk Index (SRI) — a purpose-built scoring model for SMB financing — is now fully integrated into LendSaaS, providing users with fast, actionable insights directly within their existing workflows.

With SRI embedded into the platform, LendSaaS customers can seamlessly filter opportunities, price risk with greater precision, and allocate capital more effectively — all without disrupting current processes.

“LendSaaS has established itself as a key platform for MCA originators,” said Tomo Matsuo, Founder and CEO of AdvanceIQ.ai. “By integrating SRI, LendSaaS users gain instant access to tailored risk scores and portfolio intelligence, empowering them to make smarter, data-driven decisions at the top of the funnel and improve portfolio performance.”

The SMB Risk Index (SRI) is engineered specifically for the alternative SMB financing space. Trained on real-world MCA performance data, it leverages intuitive, widely adopted underwriting attributes to help originators reduce operational overhead, improve pricing strategies, and optimize capital deployment. Fully integrated into LendSaaS, SRI enhances underwriting workflows, minimizes manual effort, and supports confident, scalable growth.

“As competition in the MCA space intensifies, our customers need every advantage to assess risk quickly and confidently,” said Josh Carcione, Owner and Founder of LendSaaS. “Partnering with AdvanceIQ.ai gives them access to a purpose-built scoring model and portfolio tools that cut through the noise and drive faster, more informed decisions.”

This integration further reinforces LendSaaS’ commitment to offering a comprehensive and customizable platform that supports MCA originators from application to funding — and beyond.
