Kayanda Capital · Liquidity Optimization Layer for Receivables

The Fastest Path to Cash
at the Lowest Total Cost.

Kayanda Capital is the liquidity optimization layer for receivables, starting with U.S. government receivables. The Kayanda Liquidity Optimization Engine™ estimates time-to-cash, true cost, and approval odds across participating funding partners, then recommends the lowest-cost route that still meets your cash deadline.

No obligation to accept. Funding amounts, timing, pricing, advance rates, reserves, recourse, and eligibility are determined by the funding partner after verification and underwriting. Funding is not guaranteed.

Kayanda LLC founded ·

Not a bank or lender.  Kayanda creates your Money File™ and routes qualified files to a third-party funding partner, who independently verifies, underwrites, and funds. Kayanda may earn a referral fee when a transaction funds — funding is never guaranteed.
The proprietary system

Other brokers find money.
Kayanda optimizes money.

The Kayanda Liquidity Optimization Engine™ is designed to do one thing: recommend the path that turns a receivable into cash by the business's deadline at the lowest estimated total cost among Kayanda's participating funding partners. Five layers work together, and the fifth makes the other four more accurate with every file. Kayanda starts with one market, U.S. government receivables, and one question: what is the cheapest way to turn this government receivable into cash by the date the contractor needs it?

The fastest money is not always the best money. The best money is the cheapest money that still arrives on time.

A contractor holding a $500K invoice that needs $200K in 4 days does not need the 1-day offer at $9K if a 3-day offer costs $5K. It also cannot use the 8-day offer at $3K, however cheap. The Engine ranks every eligible option against the deadline first, then against true cost.

LAYER 01

Time-to-Cash Score™

Estimates actual time-to-cash by funder, payer, invoice type, and document quality, rather than the advertised timeline.

How fast will this really fund?
LAYER 02

True Cost Score™

Normalizes every offer to total dollar cost and estimated effective APR, including fees, reserves held back, and recourse exposure.

What does it really cost?
LAYER 03

Approval Probability™

Estimates which funding partner is most likely to approve this file, so the business does not lose days on a likely decline.

Who is likely to say yes?
LAYER 04

Smart Routing™

Recommends the lowest-cost option that still meets the cash deadline and clears the approval threshold. The business makes the final choice.

Where should this go first?
LAYER 05

Outcome Graph™

Records quoted terms against actual funding speed, cost, and repayment outcome. Every closed file recalibrates layers one through four.

Illustrative only. Routes are unnamed examples; figures are not quotes and do not represent any actual partner's terms. Speed, cost, approval, and APR figures are estimates from a model in calibration and have not been validated against a funded outcome set. Estimated APR is a simplified comparison figure (total cost ÷ amount, annualized over the days until the payer pays) and is not a disclosure; funding partners provide any legally required cost disclosures and independently verify, underwrite, price, and decide every transaction. Kayanda recommends and the business decides. Kayanda is not a lender, does not guarantee funding, speed, or cost, and may receive compensation from funding partners; compensation is not an input to the routing ranking.
The proprietary asset
"For this exact receivable, who will fund it fastest at the lowest real cost?"

Quoted terms are public. Realized terms are not. Every file routed through the Outcome Graph™ adds a record of what was promised against what was delivered, a dataset a new entrant cannot buy and can only build with time in market. Funders, factors, brokers, and contractors can contribute anonymized outcomes through the Kayanda Receivables Intelligence Network™.

Kayanda's core product

Every Application Becomes
a Money File™.

Kayanda's Money File™ converts fragmented receivable information into a standardized, permissioned package intended to reduce intake friction and improve preliminary funding-partner review. Kayanda assesses preliminary readiness. Funding partners independently verify, underwrite, establish terms, and make all funding decisions.

The layer underneath the money

Kayanda does not fund invoices.
Kayanda scores the payer.

Every lender in receivables finance underwrites the same thing: the business borrowing the money. That is the wrong question. A receivable is not repaid by the borrower — it is repaid by whoever owes the invoice. The decisive variable is when that payer actually pays, and almost nobody prices it directly.

The Payment Certainty Score™ answers when this invoice pays — not whether the borrower is creditworthy.

Federal receivables carry a structural feature commercial invoices do not. Under the Prompt Payment Act (31 U.S.C. §3901–3907), an agency that receives a proper invoice generally must pay within 30 days of receipt or acceptance, or owe automatic interest. Payment timing on that paper is governed by statute and internal process, not by the borrower's balance sheet — which means it can be modelled.

Kayanda scores five inputs on a 0–1000 scale and returns a tier, an estimated payment window, an indicative advance band, and reason codes explaining every point lost. Kayanda takes no credit risk and makes no funding decision. The score is an input that funding partners may use inside their own independent underwriting.

    Illustrative only. The Payment Certainty Score™ is a model in calibration and has not been validated against a funded outcome set. Nothing shown here is an approval, an offer, a financing commitment, or a prediction of payment. Advance bands are indicative ranges, not quotes — funding partners independently verify, underwrite, price, and decide every transaction. Kayanda is not a credit bureau and is not a consumer reporting agency; the score evaluates commercial receivables and institutional payers only, never consumers, and is not a consumer report under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
    01 / Score

    Every Money File™ is scored

    Scoring runs on the file Kayanda already builds. No extra work for the applicant, no new data collection, no separate product to sell.

    02 / Observe

    The outcome comes back

    Funded, declined, priced at what advance rate, paid on what day. Each closed loop is a labelled training example against the score that preceded it.

    03 / Sharpen

    The model recalibrates

    Observed payment behaviour updates the payer's own curve. The next business invoicing that same agency or prime is scored more accurately than the last.

    How it works

    Five steps from receivable
    to funding decision.

    01Submit the receivable. Provide an invoice, approved contract, purchase order, or evidence of completed work and money owed.
    02Kayanda builds and scores the Money File™ instantly. The documentation is organized, missing items are flagged, and the payer is scored — automatically, in seconds.
    03The file is routed automatically. Payer class, score tier, transaction size, and partner criteria determine which funding partner receives the file first.
    04Qualified files move to a funding partner. FundThrough or another selected third-party funding partner independently verifies the receivable, underwrites the transaction, and presents its own terms.
    05The business decides. If the applicant accepts and the transaction funds, the business receives the proceeds. Kayanda may receive compensation under its agreement with the funding partner.

    Defensibility

    Two moats. One compounds with
    volume, one compounds with adoption.

    A referral business has no moat — the fee is one-time, the relationship is non-exclusive, and anyone with a landing page can compete for the same borrower. Kayanda's strategy is to keep origination as the entry point and build two assets underneath it that get harder to copy every month they run. Both are stated here as the design of the business and its intended trajectory, not as completed positions.

    MOAT ONE

    The Payer Graph™

    A proprietary record of how institutional payers actually behave — built one Money File™ at a time, and impossible to buy because nobody is selling it.
    What accumulates
    • Observed payment timing by agency, contracting office, prime, and contract vehicle
    • Which document defects actually delay payment, and by how long
    • Where a proper invoice stalls between submission and acceptance
    • How assignment, offset, liens, and disputes change realised timing
    • Funded versus declined outcomes scored against what the model predicted
    Why it holds
    • Payment-behaviour data on federal agencies and primes is not a purchasable dataset — it exists only as a by-product of running files
    • A competitor starting today starts at zero history and cannot backfill it with capital
    • Accuracy is a function of closed loops, and closed loops are a function of time in market
    • The asset is owned by Kayanda even on deals funded entirely by a partner's balance sheet
    More files scored → more observed outcomes → sharper payer curves → better routing and fewer declines → more partners want the flow → more files scored.
    MOAT TWO

    Written into the workflow

    Once a funder prices off the score and a business carries a score history, leaving costs both sides something they cannot take with them.
    How it embeds
    • Kayanda holds referral partnerships with FundThrough and Square, with additional partners intended — distribution is deliberately non-exclusive
    • The Money File™ schema is the format partners receive; the score is a field inside it
    • The score is licensed back to partners as an API call inside their own intake, not a document they read — live at /api/v1/score
    • Kayanda's federal comment filings across OCC-2025-0372, FINCEN-2026-0100, and RIN 3064-AG19 put the standard in front of regulators before it is asked for
    Why it holds
    • Two-sided: each new funder pricing off the score makes the score worth more to businesses, and each scored business makes the feed worth more to funders
    • Switching cost for the business — score history is portable within Kayanda and lost outside it
    • Switching cost for the funder — replacing a scored feed means rebuilding intake around an unscored one
    • A standard adopted by several competing funders is far harder to displace than any single contract
    More funders pricing off the score → businesses must be scored to get the best terms → more scored businesses → the feed becomes the default intake → more funders adopt it.
    Why the layer matters

    A broker earns once.
    A scoring layer earns every query.

    The same origination produces two completely different businesses depending on where the value is captured. This is the structural argument for building the layer rather than expanding the referral desk.

    Non-exclusive by design
    Kayanda routes to multiple competing funders. A layer that serves the whole category is worth more than a desk tied to one balance sheet.
    No credit risk
    Kayanda carries no capital and no losses. Revenue scales with query volume rather than with a balance sheet that has to be funded.
    Category precedent
    The durable businesses in lending are the ones that scored rather than lent — the rating agencies and the credit bureaus outlast the lenders that use them.

    FAQ

    Common questions.

    What is the Payment Certainty Score™?
    A 0–1000 score that estimates when a receivable is likely to be paid, based on the payer rather than the borrower. It reads five inputs — payer class, payment mechanism, documentation completeness, days outstanding against terms, and payer concentration — and returns a tier, an estimated payment window, an indicative advance band, and reason codes. The model is in calibration and has not been validated against a funded outcome set. It is not an approval, an offer, or a guarantee of funding.
    What happens after I submit?
    Your Money File™ is built, scored, and routed automatically in seconds. You see your score, tier, estimated payment window, and reason codes on screen, and a copy with your funding-partner link is emailed to you. If you do not continue right away, Kayanda sends up to three reminders and, two weeks later, a one-click question about how it went — that answer helps calibrate the score. Nothing is shared with a partner until you click through to them.
    Is there an API?
    Yes. Score a receivable with POST /api/v1/score using an X-Api-Key header. A free developer key (100 queries a month) is issued instantly from the API section; Growth and Scale plans issue keys automatically on checkout. The OpenAPI spec is at /api/v1/openapi.json.
    Is Kayanda a credit bureau?
    No. Kayanda is not a credit bureau, a rating agency, or a consumer reporting agency. The Payment Certainty Score™ evaluates commercial receivables and institutional payers only — never consumers — and is not a consumer report under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Funding partners make every underwriting and funding decision independently.
    Is Kayanda Capital a bank?
    No. Kayanda Capital is an AI-powered receivables fintech and referral platform. It does not operate as a bank or directly lend money.
    Does Kayanda approve financing?
    No. Third-party funding partners independently verify, underwrite, establish terms, and decide whether to fund.
    What receivables may qualify?
    Eligibility varies by partner. Stronger files commonly involve completed work, valid invoices, identifiable debtors, clear payment terms, and supporting documentation.
    How quickly can funding occur?
    Timing depends on documentation, debtor verification, underwriting, and the selected funding partner. No timing is guaranteed.
    How does Kayanda get paid?
    Kayanda may receive a referral, revenue-share, origination, or platform fee from a funding partner when a transaction funds.
    Is invoice factoring always a loan?
    No. Some transactions may involve the purchase of receivables rather than a loan. The funding partner explains the legal structure and terms.
    Can government contractors apply?
    Yes, subject to contract terms, assignment requirements, debtor verification, and partner underwriting.
    Is funding guaranteed?
    No.
