Our take

Nav, previously known as Creditera, is a fintech aiming to help small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) gain easy, transparent access to available financing and credit options.

Nav gives free access to personal and business credit reports from major consumer and commercial credit bureaus including Experian, Dun & Bradstreet, Equifax and TransUnion, and hosts a robust marketplace with more than 100 business financing products including loans and credit cards. Its emphasis on reducing administration for SMBs, and matching them with their best financing options, has helped lighten the workload for many SMBs applying for finance.

Nav is used by over a million SMBs across the United States. SMBs, albeit as a loose category, make up about 99% of firms nationwide, and over half of these firms report that needs like credit services are going unmet, especially so during a period of economic downturn. So the potential market in which Nav operates is fertile ground, and the company has been proving this through expansions and acquisitions.
