Findigs raises Series C

For years, residential operators were caught in a trade-off with no good answer: approve more applicants to hit occupancy targets, and delinquency climbs. Tighten the criteria to protect revenue quality, and units sit empty. More occupancy meant more risk. Less risk meant higher vacancy. The tools available gave operators no way around that choice. Findigs was built to end it.

From screening to decisioning

Most rental screening tools hand operators a score. A number between 0 and 1,000, weighted toward credit history and income ratios. The leasing team reads it, makes a judgment call, and moves on. That judgment call is the problem. Not because leasing teams are unreliable, but because no score tells you how an applicant will actually behave after they sign. And the process takes 2 to 3 days per application, long enough for a qualified applicant to sign somewhere else.

Decisioning is a different thing. Screening verifies facts about an applicant: identity, income, employment, document authenticity. It produces inputs. Decisioning takes those inputs and produces a yes or a no, automatically, without a leasing agent in the loop, grounded in post-lease performance data: how applicants with similar profiles actually performed after they moved in.

An operator running on decisioning doesn't manage an application queue. They wake up to decisions that are already made.

That's what we built. The category Findigs occupies is decisioning, the same evolution that lending went through when credit scoring gave way to automated underwriting. Screening is one feature inside that platform. The yes or no output is what operators actually need.

Where we are

Findigs now covers more than 400,000 units across hundreds of operators. Customers have seen up to 80% fewer evictions and up to 90% lower delinquency rates. McKinley saw a 46% decline in eviction rates across its portfolio in 2025, reduced acquisition costs by 33%, and reached 98.6% occupancy.

Every application gets an automated yes or no in a few hours, not a few days.

As Steve Carroll, our co-founder and CEO, put it: "Operators don't need higher occupancy. They need occupancy that pays. We built Findigs to end the trade-off between filling units and protecting revenue. Every application gets an automated yes or no in a few hours, grounded in how applicants actually perform after they sign. That's what gets operators better revenue quality, and that's what grows NOI."

Where we're going

We closed a $32 million Series C led by Marc Weiser of RPM Ventures, with participation from Nyca Partners, Frontier Venture Capital, and Western Technology Investment. That brings total funding to $80 million.

The capital goes toward three things: advancing the decisioning platform, expanding affordable-housing capabilities (including LIHTC and Section 8 workflow support), and launching Rent Guarantee products that protect operator revenue across the full lease term.

Marc Weiser put it plainly: "Every rental application in the country runs through screening, underwriting and leasing decisions. Tens of millions a year. Almost all of them still go through tools built for a different decade, and rely on manual decisions by leasing teams. Findigs is the only product we've seen that rebuilt the decision itself, and they have the data to prove it works."

The market is there. The proof is there. The next phase is extending the same decisioning engine to more operators, more housing types, and across the full lease term.
