Small Business Credit Risk Assessment, Reimagined
Credit risk scoring and assessment technology for origination, portfolio monitoring and targeting.
Uplinq provides powerful, highly predictive scores and analytics via API in real-time, as part of a lender’s existing workflow. No need to replace anything.
Risk & Power Score
The Uplinq risk score is a probability of default (PD) score. Furthermore, we also provide a power score. Uplinq’s power score is a confidence measure that helps a lender understand the variability in credit risk. In statistical terms, it is the Gini/KS value.
Uplinq’s scores hold their ground in information scarce environments and population segments, not just data rich urban areas. Whether it’s protected or unprotected classes, unsecured or secured loans, agricultural or trade guarantees, Uplinq’s scoring methodology helps lenders price effectively and exceed ROA targets.

Business Reasons & Market Conditions
Uplinq believes in transparency in credit decisioning.
Today, when lenders reject a loan, the small business has no idea as to why. Underwriters have a difficult time explaining their decisions to business bankers, who find it difficult to explain the reasons to the end customer. To solve for that, Uplinq provides detailed positive and negative reasons on a scale of -100 to +100.
