Contract Credit Rating

We grade the contract, not just the company. Who pays, what is obligated, and how close you are to delivering.

Every grade starts from the paying counterparty and steps down, one notch at a time, for each risk we can name. Each notch keeps its reason and its evidence, so a bank can trace the grade back to the source documents.

This score is an indicative, non-binding view of how this contract compares to our eligibility criteria. It is not a credit decision, a commitment to lend, or an offer of terms. Any financing is subject to full underwriting and approval by a partner bank.

The financing question

What is the customer committed to pay?

A headline contract value is only the starting point. Identify the committed work and the conditions attached to payment.

1Contracts and extracted terms
Confirm the payer, committed scope, payment terms and signed amendments.
2Supporting bank documents
Include letters of credit where applicable. The bank remains responsible for issuance.
Your preparation brief

Committed obligations, payment conditions and open questions in one reviewable brief.

Completed work → customer acceptance

The parts are ready. What evidence unlocks the next payment?

The financing question

What proves the milestone is complete?

Connect each delivery requirement to the records the customer needs to accept the work.

1Milestones with evidence
Link inspection records and customer acceptance to the contractual milestone.
2Invoices and receipts
Keep acceptance, invoicing and cash receipt distinct. An invoice does not establish that cash has arrived.
Your preparation brief

A traceable milestone record, with acceptance evidence and outstanding items clearly separated.

Production costs → expected payments

Materials are due now. Customer payments may come later.

The financing question

Where is the cash gap, and what needs review?

Compare the production schedule with expected payments. Make the funding need and unresolved conditions clear to a credit team.

1Cash-in calendar
Map costs against payment dates. Label estimates separately from confirmed milestones and receipts.
2Financeability checkpoints

From milestones to expected payments

See what is earned, invoiced and still ahead.

Explore an illustrative year of contract payments. Every status stays distinct, so expected work is never mistaken for cash received.

Three dates to keep distinct

  1. 01
    Acceptance date

    When the customer confirms the delivery or milestone.

  2. 02
    Invoice due date

    The payment date under the confirmed contractual terms.

  3. 03
    Receipt date

    When cash is actually received and recorded.

Built with banks

The bank holds the senior note. We hold the risk beneath it.

Partner banks hold the senior A-note, keep control of the collection account and move every dollar on their own rails. Yeki sends the instructions, records the outcomes and runs the waterfall to the cent. We never hold borrower money.

Verified Work™

Evidence for the work behind each contract.

Review defined work outcomes alongside their source evidence, contract milestones and correction history.

Open Verified Work™→
Source evidence
Keep the work type, quantity, evidence reference and original date together. An observation alone does not establish verified work.
Reviewed outcomes
Record verification and customer acceptance separately. Keep corrections, disputes and rework visible; acceptance and payment remain distinct.
Financing context
Review milestone progress alongside contract obligations and remaining completion needs. Work evidence alone does not approve financing or release funds.

Toekyn generates work evidence. Qaieo develops and evaluates simulations and forecasts. Yeki brings these inputs together with external context for financing review.

Explore the app with synthetic records saved in this browser. It does not update facility records, and financing remains in shadow mode.

Financeability checkpoints

Turn financing questions into a clearer preparation brief.

01Costs arrive before payments+

Materials and delivery costs may fall due before the customer accepts and pays for the work.

Map the payment timeline
  • When are the major costs due?
  • Which milestones allow you to invoice?
  • What payment terms are stated, and which dates remain estimates?
02Contract value has conditions+

A signed contract’s headline value may include options, ceilings or conditions that still need to be met.

Clarify the contract terms
  • What amount is obligated now?
  • What delivery, acceptance or cancellation conditions apply?
  • Which signed amendments change those terms?
03Evidence is scattered+

A credit review needs a traceable record connecting the contract, delivery and customer acceptance.

Prepare an evidence brief
  • Signed contract and current amendments
  • Milestone records and customer acceptance evidence
  • Confirmed invoices, receipts and unresolved gaps
