The Sharpei Team

We’re Building the Intelligence Layer for Equipment Finance

Sharpei AI was founded on a simple belief: lenders shouldn’t lose deals because their back office can’t keep up. We build AI that automates the entire origination workflow, so your team can focus on what matters: funding more deals, faster.

Our Mission?

Our Mission?

To make equipment financing as fast, accurate, and frictionless as the lenders and businesses it serves.

How we get there: By giving lenders AI-powered workers that handle the operational heavy lifting (application intake, document collection, data validation, and credit file preparation) so underwriters receive decision-ready packages instead of incomplete paperwork.


The result? An origination cycle that used to take 8–10 days now happens in hours. Lower processing costs. Higher conversion rates. And a vendor experience that keeps deal flow coming back.

Our Core Values

We Ship Results, Not Demos

Every line of code, every AI model, every integration is measured by one thing: did it help a lender close more deals? We consistently go the extra mile and never settle for good enough.

We Build What Doesn’t Exist

Equipment finance has been underserved by technology for decades. We see that as an opportunity, not a barrier. We create and innovate where others see legacy systems and shrug.

We Stay Relentless

Markets shift. Regulations evolve. Deal flow fluctuates. Through it all, we stay optimistic and trust the process, because the lenders who depend on us can’t afford a team that flinches.

We compete to win

We entered a market dominated by manual workflows and slow incumbents. We’re here to set a new standard. No matter the obstacles, we fight for what we believe in and deliver outcomes others said couldn’t be done.

We Have Each Other’s Backs

Great products are built by great teams. We support each other in reaching goals and grow together, because the best outcomes come from people who genuinely care about each other and the mission.

We Learn at the Speed of AI

Equipment finance. Credit policy. Machine learning. API architecture. If there’s something we don’t know, we learn it. Fast. Our lenders need a team that understands their world, not just the technology.
