Who we are

The founders.

CORA was founded by operators from asset-based lending, private credit and enterprise software. We build in Boston, MA, close to the credit teams who use the platform.

How we work.

Operators first

The founders come from asset-based lending, private credit and enterprise software. The product follows the way a deal team actually works the agreement.

Small team, big surface

Engineers talk to credit officers. Domain experts shape the product. Everyone ships things customers see within weeks.

Boston roots, flexible setup

We are headquartered in Boston, MA, and we build the team around great people, not the other way around.
