Bigfoot Capital is a non-venture debt lender for B2B SaaS and technology-enabled services companies. Co-founder Brian Parks says the firm has operated for about six and a half years and funded 50-something businesses. Its typical facility ranges from $1 million to $5 million, with borrowers generally able to draw over a 12-month period. Parks describes underwriting across revenue quality, operating efficiency, and capital structure, and says Bigfoot commonly lends three to six times monthly recurring revenue. He frames the product as growth or bridge capital for companies that want to finance a plan without selling more equity. The company’s value proposition is specialized underwriting and a founder-friendly process, while the tradeoff is debt service and covenants that can constrain a borrower if growth or repayment capacity weakens. The transcript reports portfolio and loan figures in a founder interview; it does not give Bigfoot’s own revenue or profitability.
