Purpose Built Business Lending Platform

Built for Professional Business Lenders.
Not Retrofitted for Them.

Most business lending software was built for something else and adapted to fit — which is why it never quite does. mysherpas was purpose-built for business lenders from day one.

Capabilities

Built for the REAL Work.

Four capabilities that change how your team works. Everything else, the platform handles quietly.

  1. Centralized Loan Package

    Loan Document Management

    Centralize every document, checklist, and borrower request in one place. No more chasing emails or juggling shared drives. Every file, every version, always where you expect it.

    Eliminates email-thread file hunts.

  2. Workflow

    Workflow Automation

    Automate the routine so your team focuses on relationships. Trigger tasks, route approvals, and track pipeline progress without touching the repetitive stuff.

    Eliminates manual routing and reminder follow-up.

  3. Data

    Direct Data Integration

    Credit reports, background checks, insurance, UCC filings, and environmental reports — pulled automatically into the loan package, no re-keying.

    Eliminates re-keying credit and third party data

  4. Borrower

    Frictionless Borrower Experience

    Give borrowers a guided, professional portal that reflects your brand. Collect documents, answer questions, and keep them informed every step of the loan journey.

    Eliminates phone tag and "where are we?" status emails.

Also handles
  • Dynamic digital applications — captures every qualified lead, politely redirects misfits.
  • Professional file editing — Microsoft and PDF, inside the platform. No download / re-upload loop.
  • Centralized Loan communications — every message and file stored in the loan file. Auditable forever.
  • Borrower data & document reuse — saves you 60%+ of repeat data entry on every follow-on deal.

Client Experience

If It's Just Software.
It's Not Enough

This isn't software. It's a real human operator on your business lending team—and a cadence that keeps you advancing.

  1. 01

    Real Humans, Not Just Software

    Your team gets direct access to a dedicated CX partner—a real human who works as an extension of your team, with an average response time of one hour. No ticket black holes. No bots, just fast, expert support.

  2. 02

    Efficiency Tracking That Actually Proves ROI

    We don't "set it and forget it." We assess your team's efficiency over time, identify what's improving, and ensure you're on an upward trajectory. This is a measurable, data-drive CX relationship—not a passive help desk.

  3. 03

    Optimization That Never Stops

    Most vendors stop after onboarding and initial training. We don't! We coach your team on new features, new workflows, and emerging best practices, ensuring your business lending operations keep improving month after month.

On the record

What changed when six teams
switched to mysherpas.

Loan setup time, after switch

10 minutes

to setup a SBA 504 loan and send every request — work that is impossible on my old system.

It's incredibly smooth and efficient. With mysherpas, I was able to complete a loan and send out my requests in about ten minutes. That would've been impossible with our old system!

Amy Brinkman Loan Officer Frontier Community Resources

The leading competitor's tool helped us digitize processes, but it lacked the adaptability we needed. mysherpas offered a more tailored approach, ensuring that our lending infrastructure aligns with both regulatory requirements and our business objectives. The transition was seamless, thanks to their hands-on support and strategic guidance.

Mikel Bowman Chief Credit & Servicing Officer InterMountain Business Lending

As a lending institution, we need more than just automation—we need a partner that understands our long-term goals. With our previous tool, we had a functional solution, but it lacked the strategic alignment and hands-on support we needed to scale effectively. Switching to mysherpas was a game-changer.

Caryl Eriksson President & CEO InterMountain Business Lending

This platform has transformed the way we work, streamlining document collection so our team can focus on what matters most… closing deals!

Chad Witcher Client Advisory AVANA Companies

I've found that mysherpas is more transparent and intuitive than HubSpot and Box, allows private team collaboration on documents, and replaces Slack for loan communication without manual setup.

Kristine Sanchez Client Advisor AVANA Companies

mysherpas is doing something completely different and innovative. Their approach to solving the decades-old problem stands out, and I love how they are redefining how things should be done. You should definitely check them out!

About mysherpas

Pioneering the new era in business lending.

Business lending technology was failing lenders and borrowers alike—disjointed systems, endless email chains, and frustrated teams. As active business borrowers, my co-founders and I experienced this friction firsthand. We built mysherpas from the ground up to handle the complexity—so your team can focus on relationships, not workarounds, and deliver results.

"We didn’t set out to build software. We set out to give business lending teams a trusted guide—one that makes the climb not only possible, but scalable."
