Casca Has Arrived (and Will Drastically Change How We Make SBA Loans) feat. Lukas Haffer | Ep. 184

This week on The Art of SBA Lending, we're joined by Lukas Haffer, co-founder of Casca, to discuss how AI is set to revolutionize small business lending. With a unique background that includes building software for major European banks and earning Standform MBA, Lukas brings a fresh, outside-the-box perspective to our industry. He shares how his company is taking on the "disaster" of small business financing by arming SBA lenders with cutting-edge technology to fight back against predatory online lenders. We dive deep into how new technology can solve the industry's biggest pain points, from a closing process that takes months, to underwriters bogged down with manual data entry. Lukas reveals how his team's mission-driven approach and dedication to understanding the day-to-day work of lenders led them to build a solution that automates the tedious tasks and lets professionals focus on what they do best: building relationships and solving complex financial puzzles. 🎯 In this episode: ➡️ How a software CEO "walked a mile in a lender's shoes" to understand the industry's problems firsthand. ➡️ The key to building a seamless borrower experience and why 63% of applications start on nights and weekends. ➡️ Why a simple online form is a game-changer for reducing human error and saving weeks of back-and-forth. ➡️ The future of SBA roles and why the traditional "assembly line" model is due for an upgrade. ➡️ Why the mission to empower entrepreneurs is what truly drives innovation in this space. 💬 If you could automate one task in your lending process, what would it be?
