Liquidity is a growth capital fintech that used its proprietary artificial intelligence technology to deploy more than $1.1 billion in capital to businesses in 2021. For high-growth startups, time is of the essence when it comes to financing expansion and hitting valuation benchmarks. In addition to providing scaled funding faster than anyone in the industry, Liquidity’s technology achieves a less than 1% default rate vs. the industry norm of 5%.
