LendUs offers a turnkey, embeddable platform that allows consumer-facing brands to embed home loan comparison and origination tools directly into their ecosystems. The platform enables customers to compare rates and connect with lenders without leaving the host brand’s environment, positioning consumer platforms as the distribution channel rather than traditional mortgage brokers. The company reports early traction with more than 20 integrated partnerships, over 10,000 users who have compared home loans via the platform, and 150% platform growth between January and May. LendUs was founded and is led by Dean Mendelowitz, a former data scientist at Zip Co, and has founding shareholders including Brad Lindenberg and Graham Mendelowitz. Following its $5 million seed raise led by Carthona Capital, LendUs plans to expand its partner network and deepen its technology stack to pursue broader national integrations.
