    CrediFi offers a software-as-a-service big-data platform serving the commercial real estate finance market, providing data and analytics driven by a database of over seven million commercial properties. The platform tracks $13 trillion in both balance-sheet and securitized loans to increase transparency around borrowers, lenders and transactions. Customers include American financial institutions and banks, property companies, hedge fund managers and US government agencies. The company intends to use the new funding to expand go-to-market efforts and to recruit executive and team talent in New York and Israel. CrediFi was founded in 2014 and is led by CEO Ely Razin; it is dual headquartered in New York City and Tel Aviv and currently employs 65 people. CrediFi is a New York City- and Tel Aviv-based provider of cloud-based data services and analytics for commercial real estate finance. Its platform collects and analyzes data across loan origination, portfolio management and competitive analysis, and includes visualization technologies to map lending and property activity as well as services to provide ultimate ownership information. The company serves premier asset holders, hedge funds, large institutional banks and other CRE market participants. Led by CEO Ely Razin, CrediFi leverages technology and human expertise to surface opportunities and risks across property types from multifamily and offices to distribution centers and senior housing. The company has 75 employees and intends to use the funds to accelerate growth, expand its sales and marketing organization, and support a major upcoming product launch. As of this round the company has raised $23 million to date. CrediFi operates a cloud-based critical data and analytics platform for the commercial real estate (CRE) finance sector, led by CEO Ely Razin. The platform provides institutional-grade loan, financial, property, and market information and asset analytics accessible on desktop and mobile. Available information includes detailed breakdowns of property loans, building tenants and occupancy data, amounts of capital invested in properties, and legal and compliance data. At launch the company had coverage relating to over 10 billion square feet of U.S. property and $1 trillion in commercial real estate loans. Its service is in use by several institutions, including premier asset holders, hedge funds, and large-scale institutional banks. CrediFi plans to use new funding to expand its customer-facing organization while continuing platform expansion.
