FAQ
What is Vence? Is it a fit for my use case?
Vence is trust infrastructure for global capital markets — explainable credit, risk, and access decisions via a Decision Platform (Trust Graph, Decision Engine, Policy Engine, monitoring). House-of-finance products (business banking, founder accounts, Card, Elite, Net-60 credit, payments) are downstream surfaces on the same trust layer, currently in founder-beta / design-partner programs. Fit depends on whether you need explainable, auditable decisions (and optionally those surfaces). Contact us to discuss.Is Vence a bank or a neobank?
No. Vence is trust infrastructure — a Decision Platform. Business banking, personal founder accounts, Card, and credit are separate products that demonstrate and distribute that platform. Same technology. Different surfaces. They are not general production banking offers today.How is Vence different from Stripe or Plaid?
Stripe and Plaid move or connect money and data. Vence answers who should receive credit, capital, liquidity, and access, with explainable, auditable decisions. Vence is built to integrate with Stripe, Plaid, Visa, Mastercard, and bank rails — not to pretend those layers do not exist. Those partners are complements; not all integrations are live today.How do I start?
