  • Company Description Able is an Austin-based financial technology company that serves the Fortune 5 Million – the 5 million small businesses in the US that create two-thirds of all jobs, yet can’t access credit they need to grow their business. We solve this problem with a novel, collaborative loan structure. At Able we make 1, 2 or 3-year term loans up to $250,000 starting at a low interest rate of 8%--but with a twist. Borrowers raise the first 25% of the loan from friends and family, called Backers. Those Backers join Able, as being lenders in the loan to the small business and help the borrowers get the lowest interest rate.
