This platform approves loans in hours, not days and is used by 3.53 crore+ people. In this episode, we sit down with Bhavin (Co-founder & CEO) and Dipesh (Co-founder & CTO) to unpack how one of India’s most impactful fintech platforms was really built. One of the founders is Nepali, who coded the first version himself and today the platform has enabled ₹17,000+ crore in loans and operates at a speed traditional banks struggle to match.
