About

Casca is a United States-based AI-native small business lending platform — backed by Y Combinator (S23) with $33 million in total funding including a $29 million Series A in August 2025 led by Canapi Ventures, following a $3.9 million seed in February 2024 from Peterson Ventures and Y Combinator — providing community banks and credit unions with an AI-powered loan origination system that enables lenders to process 10x more small business loans with 90% less manual effort, replacing the spreadsheets, email, and document-chasing workflows that make small business lending unprofitable for most community financial institutions. Founded by Stanford graduates, Casca (formerly Cascading AI) embeds AI agents into each stage of the commercial lending workflow from application intake through underwriting decision.
