Recordent’s platform enables businesses to submit their customer dues/invoices to reduce their efforts on collection. Inspired by the Credit Bureau model, Recordent informs customers how their positive payment history can be evaluated by other businesses & lenders to offer better terms on credit or a loan.

Recordent is ISO certified and currently has over 11,000 businesses in the ecosystem, 50,000+ customer dues, and over INR 2,500 crore of dues submitted by the members that have registered on Recordent.

Commenting on the funding Gopala Krishna of Kantamaneni Family Office said, “A large number of businesses continue to face a massive gap in cash flow, and that is directly linked to the long-pending overdue invoices by their customers.


“There is an immediate need for businesses to first improve their collections and reduce credit risks to unlock future growth of their business, and Recordent is a perfect tech solution for that. We were an early client of Recordent and having benefitted from the platform, we decided to lead this round.”
