Levelset helps thousands of contractors secure billions of dollars in construction payments each month. Clunky document requirements and complex construction payment laws slow payment to 83 days on average. This locks up capital and causes cash pain for millions of contractors, 98% of which are SMBs that don’t always have access to traditional sources of capital. Levelset wants to break this cash clog for small contractors by integrating capital products into our platform and finding new ways to extend credit using our unique data assets, backed by expertise in lien rights to secure payment.
