Fully managed AI outbound infrastructure for commercial lenders.
Tentt identifies companies approaching refinancing events, expansion capital needs, and acquisition financing requirements – and starts conversations before they go to market. White-labelled. Fully managed.
What the first 90 days looks like
From signed agreement to a compounding borrower pipeline – here's exactly what happens.
Week 1–2 – Foundation
Lending criteria, borrower ICP, and infrastructure setup
We align on your credit box, deal size range, sector and geographic focus, then build the borrower universe around it. Sending infrastructure goes up in parallel – authenticated inboxes, warm-up protocols, deliverability controls.
Week 3–4 – Launch
Borrower universe built, enriched, and scored. First wave launched.
Borrower targets are enriched with verified CFO and owner contacts, existing debt structure, and credit-box qualifiers. Highest-fit borrowers get the first wave of contextual outreach tied to a capital-event signal.
Week 4 – First result
First qualified borrower meeting (average)
Within four weeks of launch, most engagements see their first pre-qualified borrower conversation land on an originator's calendar – with full context on who, why, and what capital event triggered outreach.
Day 30–60 – Optimisation
Campaigns optimised on response data. Second and third waves running.
Response patterns, open rates, and engagement data feed back into targeting logic and messaging. The system improves – month two outperforms month one, with sharper signal weighting and tighter credit-box fit.
Day 90 – Compounding
Full borrower pipeline operational. Compounding begins.
By day 90 your borrower acquisition engine is running at full capacity – a self-improving system producing a predictable, growing flow of qualified borrower conversations into your originators' calendars.
Outcome
A borrower pipeline that compounds over time
Every borrower engagement, response, and closed facility feeds back into the system. The longer it runs, the better it performs.
Tentt against the alternatives.
No hedge. No asterisks. A real side-by-side against doing this yourself and against the traditional outbound agency.

Native sync, full context
Your lender signal engine.
Every component runs under your firm's brand. You own the data, the borrower relationships, and the system.
Live signal intelligence
We monitor loan maturities, covenant triggers, leadership changes, and growth signals daily – surfacing borrowers before they're shopping term sheets.
Scored and ranked borrowers
Every target is enriched, scored against your credit box, and ranked by timing signals. You see the best borrowers first – not a flat list.
Delivered where you work
Signals, scored borrowers, and outreach updates flow directly into your CRM, email, or Slack. No new tool to learn – the system fits your origination workflow.
Outreach done for you
We write, send, and manage every sequence – personalised to each borrower's capital-event context. Replies land in your inbox. Meetings land on your originators' calendars.
Why broker-led origination has a ceiling

Pipeline Impact
Built across the commercial lending spectrum.
Commercial banks
C&I lending teams at national, regional, and community banks. We surface middle-market borrowers approaching maturities, expansions, and acquisitions – timed to your credit box and treasury cross-sell strategy.
Private credit & direct lenders
Unitranche, senior secured, and mezzanine providers. We map sponsor-backed and non-sponsor borrowers approaching capital events – before the deal goes to broad syndication.
Asset-based lenders
ABL teams underwriting against receivables, inventory, and equipment. We identify working-capital-intensive borrowers with covenant pressure, growth-driven facility needs, or coming off a less-flexible structure.
Specialty & SBA lenders
Equipment finance, SBA 7(a) and 504, factoring, and vertical-specialty lenders. We surface companies whose capital need fits your specific structure – sector, ticket size, collateral, and timing.
Three playbooks. Each built for a specific lending motion.
Every engagement runs one or more of these – configured to your credit box, sector focus, and lending strategy.
Playbook 01 – Full TAM
Full credit-box universe
High-volume, systematic outreach against your complete addressable borrower market. We build the full universe of companies fitting your credit box – thousands of targets – enrich every record with verified CFO/owner contacts and existing debt structure, and run multi-channel sequenced outreach across the universe. Designed for maximum borrower market coverage and pipeline density.
Playbook 02 – Niche Directory
Curated specialty list
Concentrated outreach within a tightly defined niche – specific borrower profile, vertical, or geography. We hand-build a curated directory (hundreds, not thousands) of borrowers fitting your specialty – SBA-eligible healthcare practices, equipment-finance manufacturers in the Southeast, owner-operated industrial distributors. Deep niche intelligence drives sharper fit and higher conversion.
Playbook 03 – Signal
Capital-event activated outreach
Outreach triggered by a specific capital event – loan maturity approaching, covenant pressure, leadership change, sponsor acquisition, growth or expansion announcement. We monitor lender-relevant signals in real time and launch contextual outreach within days of the trigger – before the borrower starts shopping term sheets.
