The largest CRE Lenders in the USA

YieldStack's answer

AI integrations supporting the platform’s workflows.

Slabline's answer:

• Computer vision — identifies a card from a phone photo by matching it against an image index of our 1.57M-card catalogue
• AI grading models — read centering, corners, edges and surface to predict a raw card's likely grade
• Sales data pipeline — ingests recorded sales from eBay and the major auction houses every night and re-prices each card by grade
• Web, iOS and Android apps — one TypeScript/React codebase across all three
• MCP server and ChatGPT app — so AI assistants can look up card values directly

YieldStack's answer

YieldStack combines AI-assisted lender matching with hands-on commercial mortgage brokerage. Borrowers submit once, compare financing options, and work with a team that handles structuring, negotiation, and closing coordination. Borrowers approve lender outreach, with no upfront fees and a broker fee paid only at closing.

Slabline's answer:

Every value is tied to the real sales behind it. Slabline shows a card's price at every grade (PSA, BGS, SGC and CGC) along with the dated recorded sales it came from, so you can see why a card is worth what it's worth. Then it goes beyond a price tracker: it manages your whole collection like a portfolio, predicts a raw card's grade from a photo before you pay to grade it, and scores how well your collection is protected, with insurance-ready records.

YieldStack's answer

YieldStack helps borrowers evaluate the whole financing offer: rate, leverage, fees, reserves, prepayment terms, and closing requirements. Its platform organizes the process, while its brokerage team helps borrowers find suitable lenders and move the deal forward. One submission gives borrowers a coordinated financing process without an upfront brokerage fee.

Slabline's answer:

Most card apps give you one number. Slabline gives you the number, the sales behind it, and what to do next: which grader pays most for your card, whether grading a raw card is worth the fee, and whether your collection is properly insured. It covers sports cards and Pokémon/TCG across four grading companies, works on web, iPhone and Android, and you can start free without an account.

YieldStack's answer

Commercial real estate investors, developers, operators, and mortgage brokers seeking bridge, DSCR, fix-and-flip, construction, multifamily, and permanent financing across the United States.

Slabline's answer:

Collectors who own graded cards (slabs) and want to know what their collection is really worth: from people with a handful of PSA 10s to serious collectors with hundreds of slabs. Also collectors deciding whether to grade raw cards, and anyone who wants their collection documented for insurance.

YieldStack's answer

Rommin Adl and Daniel Chesney founded YieldStack to simplify commercial real estate financing. The platform brings deal preparation, lender matching, offer comparison, and closing coordination into one workflow, combining AI-assisted analysis with human brokerage expertise.

Slabline's answer:

Slabline is built by Hobby Smart Case, a company of collectors that makes protection gear for card collections. We kept hearing the same two questions: "what is my collection actually worth?" and "am I protected if something happens to it?" Slabline is the software answer to both: live values from real sales, and a single score for how well your collection is protected.
