Plensy™, The World’s First NFT Auto Smart Loans, Announces Launch of Wefunder Equity Crowdfunding Campaign

Plensy™ Inc. is the World’s First End-to-End Credit & Lending Solution for Car Buyers and Dealerships, allowing consumers to regain control of their purchasing power and credit score while benefiting from interest rates and loan terms that won’t break their bank or threaten their family’s survival.

On the Plensy™ Wefunder campaign page, the general public can now make reservations. Wefunder is a website that connects startups with investors through crowdfunding. The “Kickstarter for Investing” platform makes use of a provision in the JOBS Act of 2012 that allows unaccredited investors to purchase equity in early-stage private companies.

The Points-based Lending System – Plensy™, teamed with Wefunder to offer their future customers the opportunity to purchase Plensy’s initial equity, which offers discounted shares to early Seed Round investors.

The disruptive FinTech company has achieved many milestones in the previous three years prior to the campaign’s launch, including:

• First company to create the Idea to apply NFTs to Vehicles and coin the term, Auto Smart Loans

• Patent filed in 2020

• 120 Dealerships across the United States Signed Agreements to Offer Plensy’s Alternative Lending Solution to its Customers 

• Some of the dealerships are under Warren Buffet’s Berkshire Hathaway Automotive Group and Lithia Motors, Inc., one of the largest automotive group retailers in the United States and is among the fastest-growing companies in Fortune 500

• Built a more streamlined and modern Dealer Management & Inventory System 2019-2020

• Auto Finance Innovation Award Nominee – Sam Errama, Founder & CEO

• Inspirational Woman of the Year Los Angeles Times – Brandi Kolosky, Founding Member & CGO

• Completed Friends & Family Round with $150k raised 

• Tested 3.3m data points showing a 97% efficacy of predicting default by accurately reflecting the customers’ true ability to pay a loan and their actual creditworthiness

“We are extremely excited about the opportunity to provide a superior value proposition to the consumers and dealerships while providing a significant return for our investors,” Miami Resident and Floridian, Chief Growth Officer / Founding Member of Plensy™, Brandi Kolosky, states. “The vote of confidence and eagerness from everyone over the past year shows that Plensy™ is needed now more than ever to provide a more accurate and faster solution with less risk for the credit and lending industry. We have already made significant headway on our target well before ‘going live’ on Wefunder and look forward to connecting with more fans of Plensy™!” 

Erik Day, VP & CFO of the Warren Henry Auto Group’s 14 South Florida dealerships, clarified on the 2021 CXAuto Conference panel with Ms. Kolosky at 1:34:30, “absolutely Plensy™ is needed….we are missing out on a lot of customers due to many factors…” 

“We’ve created statistical models and a loan approval prediction to increase the likelihood of a consumer qualifying while reducing missed payments and default rates. We’re employing a logistic regression model with real-time accurate data analytics and smart algorithms to assess a buyer’s true ability to pay, while our predictive analytics algorithm allows us to determine individual interest rates.”, said Plensy’s Founder, Sam Errama.

Plensy™ uses the blockchain to ensure that the above data is accurate, secure, and transparent by combining data points and risk mitigators such as rental history, gig economy income, additional assets, and more. It generates a buyer’s authenticated creditworthiness using its own patent-pending AI without increasing credit risk or creating any discriminatory racial consequences. Plensy™ is the most intricate and necessary part of the equation to disrupt the monopolized for-profit credit score firms, Experian, Transunion, and Equifax, by extending the marketplace, diversifying risks, and creating a social effect. Finally, Plensy™ has built in a 20% reserve into its financial model, greatly beyond the industry standard of 5%.

Plensy™ will use the crowdfunds for working capital. The early-bird investment offering, which includes a discount on the valuation cap and perks, will end on February 24, 2022.

Visionary Marketplace Entrepreneur and Community Builder, Todd Haselhorst, Creates Storm Advisor™

Miami-Dade County resident, visionary entrepreneur, and community builder, Todd Haselhorst, announces his newest venture launched in October of 2021, StormAdvisor™. Throughout his career, he has chosen highly fragmented and antiquated industries where he can apply tech-enabled marketplace solutions and automated processes to reduce fraud, waste, and cost such as Auto Transport Plus sold to NYSE-KAR and CubeMonk, a transportation and labor marketplace for the logistics industry that is currently undergoing a merger.

In November 2020, after Hurricane Sally hit Florida and caused widespread property damage, Todd and his friend Nick created Hercules Construction to support the recovery efforts of people’s homes. They found that contractors were exploiting homeowners by providing poor quality work or sometimes even running off with their money. Haselhorst then began to realize how large and widespread the problems were facing homeowners in need of repairs. He quickly understood that much like in the logistics industry, that homeowners didn’t have the information, experience, and resources necessary to safely and quickly navigate the process of restoring their home.  

With Todd’s background in building marketplaces, he creatively and innovatively formed StormAdvisor™ so families could quickly and easily access their network of pre-vetted contractors, insurance adjusters, and restoration experts who could be trusted to restore their biggest asset back to pre-storm conditions, focusing first on Florida and Louisiana. 

Part of StormAdvisor’s mission is providing homeowners with a curated network of professionals to assist them throughout the entire process of filing a claim and repairing their home after a major storm. Most people have little to no experience with this lengthy process. Insurance companies, adjusters, and contractors take advantage of this fact—costing families time, money, and sometimes even their home.

Climate change increased the number of destructive storms by 40% over the last 20 years. In 2020 alone, 22 major storms caused over $1B in damage, breaking previous records. As a result, scammers flock to devastated communities to take advantage of these vulnerable homeowners. It’s gotten so bad, states are passing legislation to eliminate the predatory practices of these contractors, but it’s not working

“Our solution is an online marketplace that is hyperfocused on a niche experience overlooked by companies like Angi, HomeAdvisor, and Thumbtack. None of these platforms focus on storm restoration – a dramatically different experience than home improvement,” says CEO & Founder Todd Haselhorst. “StormAdvisor™ is the first company to focus on building software tools and providing unbiased information in this underserved $100 billion dollar market.”

More About Todd Haselhorst: Todd Haselhorst is a serial entrepreneur who has been building businesses since the age of 12. He was born in Hays, Kansas amongst a family of construction company entrepreneurs. Todd followed suit at the age of 12 by creating a pipeline of lawn service clients and has never looked back. Since then he has built businesses in many different industries including: Auto Transport Plus sold to NYSE-KAR and CubeMonk, a transportation and labor marketplace for the logistics industry that is currently undergoing a merger.

He attended the University of Kansas studying Economics & Game Theory while playing a key role as Defensive Line Tackle on the best team in school history which later won the Orange Bowl in Miami, FL. Haselhorst’s vision was always innovative from a young age. Todd, who studied the science of decision making, developed a passion for creating systems that align the incentives of all the participants. 

During his moments of rest or activity, he enjoys reading, learning, traveling, hiking, camping, fitness, and practicing daily yoga, meditation, and self-development. His colleagues, family, and friends describe him as a genuine listener and goal-oriented human being who cares deeply about helping others. Todd is thoroughly happy with the city he lives in and sees Miami-Dade County as an opportunistic, culturally forward place to call home.

Tonight, you have seen for yourselves how your involvement with GlobalSoko is already making a social impact in Africa, empowering thousands of young women entrepreneurs and transforming their lives and benefiting entire communities of underserved people.”

Kenya Television Network KTN sent a reporter to attend the event, as the DadaSoko project has attracted a large amount of national interest in Kenya among prominent government officials, including senators and Members of Parliament.

“The technologies that empower these talented young women entrepreneurs to expand their business opportunities to the world outside of their neighborhoods and villages were conceived and built right here in Las Vegas. This includes technology for financial aid and a unique split-payment system that is the foundation for creating DadaSoko as a self-sustaining economic ecosystem,” said Moses Kusasira, President of GlobalSoko Foundation, Inc. in a post-event interview.

Is Plensy™ Leading the Race Against The Cabinet of US’s Proposed Public Credit Reporting Plan?

The Credit Reporting and Lending Industries have long needed a breakthrough in alternative scoring and lending. Now more than ever, especially due to the COVID-19 economic hardships brought on by COVID-19, creditworthiness is perilous for citizens of the United States and globally. In March of 2020, then-Senator, now Vice President publicly Tweeted, “We must suspend wage garnishment, car repossessions, credit card interest and penalties, and any negative credit reporting for the duration of the pandemic (including for at least 120 days after this is over).”

Several years ago, the Founder & CEO of Plensy™ Sam Errama, who provides Lead Generation services for Automotive Dealerships through his company Pownder®, recognized crippling profit margins and punished consumers. These dealerships’ sales departments expressed their inability to provide loan options to customers, and Mr. Errama dived into creating a new points-based lending system and platform called, Plensy™.  

Sam Errama further elaborates, “After witnessing firsthand numerous potential buyer’s credit reports with low or no scores at all in the automotive market, I knew the painful car buying and lending process needed disruption.”  

The credit scoring system used by Americans today was implemented in the ‘80s using an antiquated mathematical algorithm equation. Plensy™’s new lending-points system leverages modern data analytics and algorithmic models to accurately assess a borrower without Increasing credit risk or any basis of discriminatory racial effects and is set to begin beta testing with the automotive market in 2022. By expanding the marketplace, diversifying risk, and creating social impact, Plensy™ is the most intricate and needed part of the equation to disrupt the monopolized for-profit companies —Experian, Transunion, and Equifax.   

Two hundred twenty million US Citizens’ social security, lending collections, and payment data are absorbed by these companies without consumers’ permission or approval, punishing them on race, hospital bills, inquiries, and everything in between. In addition to charging a subscription fee to view credit scores, the big-3 even lower consumer scores when their credit is pulled for lending or applications for homes. 

Demos, a think-tank organization, published a paper written by Associate Director Amy Traub in April of 2019, titled “Establish a Public Credit Registry”; now under Biden’s plan, the monopoly is under a financial microscope. Plensy™ is leading the race and well ahead of this proposed campaign.  

“Plensy™ has solved it. It’s time we evolved with it. So, humanity can thrive, not just survive, by bringing blockchain technology and asset-backed tokenized loans to the credit and lending industry. We are ready to engage with like-minded VC’s and Angel Fund Groups to pursue this endeavor further,” Brandi Kolosky, Chief Growth Officer of Plensy™, further expresses.  

While past performance may be a sufficient indicator for a borrower whose financial circumstances have not changed, that is not the case for many borrowers. In addition to traditional jobs and professions, many borrowers supplement their income through non-traditional means such as e-commerce, multi-level marketing, app driving, and food delivery services. Financial conditions change rapidly, and failure to acknowledge those changes puts a borrower at a significant disadvantage. 

Under the traditional model, a borrower’s credit score can be updated monthly or at least every 45 days. This lag in real-time data is woefully inefficient for today’s fast-paced economic environment, where transactions can be completed within a matter of nanoseconds using blockchain technology.

The current credit scoring system does not consider other important factors, such as government regulations, market conditions, the borrower’s expenses, employment history, the loan terms, or the total down payment the borrower is willing to pay on the transaction.  

The process to obtain lending-points is simple and without cost, through the Plensy™ App. Connect your bank accounts, add proof of rental or mortgage payment history, upload copies of your legal identifications such as driver’s license or passport, as well as additional variables that can raise your lending points.  

Plensy™ issues these lending points based on a lending point application programming interface (API) that inputs the data into the Plensy™ algorithm. The API is available to sellers and calculates the borrower’s tier-based upon relevant data inputs. A borrower may change their tier anytime, without penalty or fees, by changing input variables, such as the amount of down payment, the purchase of warranties or additional insurance, or liens on other assets. 

Once the loan terms are agreed upon, and the parties enter into a contract to repay the loan, the loan contract is uploaded on the Plensy’s digital platform. A smart contract created by blockchain technology allows full transparency of terms to all interested parties. The asset, title, and tokens associated with the loan are all linked by a smart contract. Tokens are released to the network for trading based on the value of the asset. Plensy™’s Blockchain technology allows for transparency of a digital asset’s current value by maintaining a decentralized public ledger available to the public.  

More About: Plensy™ is a patent-pending points-based lending platform on the blockchain. We seek to disrupt the antiquated automotive lending system by offering asset-backed tokenized loans.

Plensy™, A Points-Based Lending-System Opens Seed Funding Round to Offer NFT Auto Smart Loans to Dealership Customers

August 24, 2021 – Los Angeles, CA – The Los Angeles-based FinTech startup Plensy™ announces the opening of its $25M seed funding round. Plensy’s patent-pending Points-Based Lending System will compete with digital lending platforms and banks by elevating the vehicle buying experience for both customers and automotive dealerships. For 3 years the team has been self-funding the developement of the technology and systems solving problems holding back the adoption of DeFi into the antiquated automotive sector by applying NFTs to Auto Smart Loans. Plensy™. 

Plensy’s mission is to replace outdated, discriminatory, and draconian credit scoring and lending systems with a smarter, honest, more ethical, and equitable approach to risk assessment and financing, based on real-time data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and blockchain technology using asset-backed Non-fungible Tokens

The AI algorithm authenticates protocols and information between the dealership and consumer that are inputted into the Plensy™ DMS (dealer management system) with both transparency and secured methods of verification stored on private and public nodes. Instead of a monolithic credit score often based on outdated or inaccurate information and prone to misuse, Plensy™ evaluates prospective borrowers based on their current buying power and true ability to repay a loan.  

Plensy™ not only brings innovation and a fresh perspective to risk assessment but also revolutionizes the broader credit and finance market by tokenizing with NFTs (converting to a digital format), coined as Smart Loans into programmable, yield baring, new and attractive digital asset class which can be purchased and sold on a state-of-the-art platform cryptographically secured with blockchain technology. The low interest rate that Plensy™ will compete with is desirable among investors looking for a good return on their investments and higher monthly income for dealerships. 

Plensy’s Unicorn pedigree includes addressable market, scalability, unfair advantage, timing coincidence, and its founding team:  

  • Sam Errama, Founder & CEO with 20 years of experience in the Automotive Dealerships and Data Marketing industries,  
  • Murali Margapuri, Co-Founder & CTO with 20 years of experience as CTO & VP of Citibank / Banamex global, and  
  • Brandi Kolosky, Chief Growth Officer with 14 years’ experience in Brand Marketing, Capital Raising, Blockchain & Mining Solutions, Global B2B & B2C Business Development and certified in Innovations in FinTech

 

Approximately one hundred twenty (120) dealerships have signed agreements with Plensy™, because of their attention in cross-pollinating and growing the $98B DeFi ecosystem together. Some of the largest automotive groups in the United States, which collectively operate over a thousand (1,000) dealerships, are ready to offer Alternative Financing to their consumers, beating the quota goal before the funding round began. Plensy’s current financial model only predicts 1% of the $1.4 trillion auto loan market (300 dealerships) — proving the Plensy™ model is the future of car buying. There isn’t competition. There is only coopetition. 

This new approach creates a net positive social and economic impact as millions of previously ostracized consumers are welcomed into the marketplace and new financial opportunities are created for both lenders and borrowers.    

In 2015, the US Congress declared credit scoring to be a monopoly controlled by just one organization, FICO. This monopoly provides credit scoring for more than 90% of the top US lenders. FICO’s credit scoring system leaves over 26 million Americans “credit invisible” and an additional 19 million un-scorable.  

Sam Errama, Chief Executive Officer of Plensy™, expresses: ”We intend to disrupt the antiquated automotive financing ecosystem by delivering asset-backed tokenized loans.””
