FundBiz Data API
FundBiz publishes its verified UK specialty business finance lender data as a read-only public API and as an MCP server for AI clients. The data is the same one behind the UK Business Finance Lender Index: lender terms (ticket range, typical rate, decision time, soft-search and Ltd-only flags) and a current market snapshot. No authentication, no personal data, released under CC BY 4.0.

Terms
Read-only and free under CC BY 4.0: attribute FundBiz and link back to the Lender Index. Every figure originates in our verified lender dataset. Specialty finance is risk-priced per file, so per-lender pricing in typical_rate is a published headline band, not a quote. The Bank of England base rate is published with an explicit as_of date; verify against the Bank of England before relying on it. Endpoints are rate limited per IP; please cache responses and avoid abusive request rates.
