The platform is built for asset managers, direct lenders, and third-party servicers, offering a unified system that streamlines lending operations such as loan servicing, deal management, trade management, and document automation. By consolidating processes that are typically spread across outdated internal tools and manual workflows, LendOS provides seamless integration with existing client systems while offering real-time portfolio visibility and full auditability across funds, facilities, and counterparties. Essentially, LendOS positions itself as the operating system for private credit and syndicated lending.
John Olesky, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of LendOS, emphasized the growing demand from institutions for intuitive, reliable software. “This investment enables us to accelerate our roadmap and support a growing customer base that expects their software to evolve with them,” he said. Josh Herrera, President and co-founder, added that while private credit has grown rapidly, middle- and back-office systems have lagged. “LendOS provides a modern operating layer, reducing cycle times, improving controls, and freeing teams to focus on higher-value work,” he noted.
