We have been really happy with the funding ECL has given us. We were able to increase our growth by 150%. As a software startup, this funding was easier to access than a bank loan. This financing has been really the last push that we needed this year, so we are really eager to recommend ECL.

Our experience was very easy, no complaints - quick and very good. ECL’s financing is more fair for everyone, you know what your margin and costs are and can put it in a budget - it is more simple than other forms of financing which can be complicated for a small company.

What Is Non-Dilutive Capital?

Non-dilutive capital is funding that lets you access growth capital without issuing equity or giving up ownership. Instead of selling a slice of your company, you raise capital against the strength of your business which is your revenue, contracts, and fundamentals. 

For AI and SaaS companies, this means you can: 

Invest in growth without expanding your cap table

Keep control of your roadmap, pricing, and exit strategy

Use capital as a lever, not a trade you regret later

If your business is already generating predictable revenue, non-dilutive capital lets you pull future cash flow forward to fund what’s working now. 

Why Founders Choose Non Dilutive Capital? 

Keep Your Ownership 

You’ve done the hard work to build something real. Non-dilutive capital lets you access funding while keeping your equity, decision-making power, and upside.

Lower Cost Than Equity

Every percentage of equity given away early compounds into a huge cost later. Non-dilutive capital can be a more efficient way to fund growth, especially between institutional rounds.

Flexible Fundraising

Non-dilutive capital doesn’t lock you into one funding path. You can still raise venture later, ideally at a better valuation, on your terms.

Align Capital With Revenue

Instead of raising a massive round “just in case,” you can match capital to growth: pull more when you’re accelerating, and protect dilution when you’re not.

Who can apply for ECL’s Non Dilutive Fund?

Cross-border non-dilutive capital is a strong fit if you are: 

A B2B AI or SaaS company with recurring revenue

Growing across US, India, or Southeast Asia, or selling globally

Looking to extend runway, fund growth, or smooth working capital without expanding your cap table every 12–18 months

You’re likely a fit if you: 

Generate

$500K+ in ARR

Have Predictable

Recurring Revenue

Have a Healthy Runway

3+ Months

It’s especially powerful for:

Seed to Series C founders who want to delay dilution

Bootstrapped teams ready to accelerate without “selling the company to save it” 

Venture-backed founders who want more optionality between rounds

FAQs

Everything you need to know about non-dilutive capital 

How is ECL’s non dilutive funding different from VCs?

Venture capital requires you to give up equity, ownership, and often control through board seats and investor influence. ECL’s non-dilutive capital provides funding without issuing equity, so you keep ownership, decision-making power, and future upside. It’s designed to complement or delay equity raises.

How is ECL’s non-dilutive capital different from venture debt?

Venture debt is typically tied to an equity raise, includes covenants, and often comes with warrants. ECL’s non-dilutive capital is revenue-based, does not require an equity round, and does not include warrants or board control. Repayments are structured to align with how AI and SaaS companies actually generate revenue.

How is ECL’s non-dilutive capital different from traditional banks?

Traditional banks focus on collateral, profitability, and long operating history. ECL evaluates recurring revenue, growth trends, and unit economics, making it better suited for modern AI and SaaS companies. Funding decisions are faster, structures are more flexible, and capital is available across borders.

Is Non Dilutive Capital the same as revenue-based financing (RBF)?

Non-dilutive capital is a broader category. Revenue-based financing is one form of it. ECL’s approach is ARR-based and designed specifically for AI and SaaS businesses, with flexible structures that align repayment to revenue performance.

How much non-dilutive capital can I borrow?

Eligible companies can typically access $100K to $5M, often up to 60% of annual recurring revenue, structured in tranches. The exact amount depends on revenue quality, growth rate, and risk profile.

What are the eligibility requirements?

You’re generally a strong fit if you:
-Are a B2B SaaS or AI company
-Generate $500K+ in AR
-Have predictable recurring revenue
-Operate in or sell globally from the US, India, or Singapore
-Have at least 3 months of runway
-Each application is evaluated individually.

What is the cost of capital from ECL?

Pricing is typically ~10–12% annual interest, with monthly payments that include both interest and principal. Your exact rate depends on factors like revenue stability, growth, and risk profile, and the full terms are disclosed upfront before you accept an offer.

How does ECL evaluate risk?

Efficient Capital Labs uses AURA, our proprietary decisioning system, to assess how a business actually performs, not how it’s presented. AURA reviews live operating data such as recurring revenue quality, growth consistency, customer concentration, and cash flow patterns. This intelligence is paired with experienced human review to ensure decisions are thoughtful, fair, and aligned with long-term business health.

Is my financial data safe?

Yes. ECL uses secure, read-only connections and enterprise-grade data protection standards. Your data is used strictly for underwriting and risk assessment and is never sold or shared externally.

Do you take equity, warrants, or board seats?

Never! Efficient Capital Labs provides capital without claiming ownership, influence, or control. You build the company. You keep the upside. We stay in the engine room, not the boardroom.
