Ratio announced a $15.8 million venture financing round on April 16, 2026, aimed at accelerating the development of its AI-powered agents for B2B lending. In addition to the equity raise, the company secured a $100 million extension to its lending capacity, which underpins its embedded buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) product for business customers. Ratio operates as a B2B lendtech platform enabling software companies and other businesses to offer embedded financing at the point of sale.
The AI agents under development are expected to streamline underwriting and credit decisioning within Ratio's platform.
