Description: UPST Upstart Holdings November 04, 2025

Upstart Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: UPST) runs a cloud-based AI lending platform in the United States, offering personal loans, auto retail and refinance loans, home-equity lines, and small-ticket credit through three business segments: Personal Lending, Auto Lending, and Other.

Founded in 2012 and headquartered in San Mateo, California, Upstart reported Q4 2023 revenue of roughly $215 million-a 15% year-over-year increase-but posted a net loss of $85 million, reflecting ongoing investment in model development and marketing. The company’s AI underwriting claims to cut default rates by about 30% versus conventional credit scores, a metric that has attracted both retail borrowers and institutional partners.

Key macro drivers include the Fed’s interest-rate policy, which influences consumer credit demand, and the broader fintech funding environment that can affect Upstart’s ability to scale its platform. Additionally, the adoption of AI-enhanced credit scoring across the consumer-finance sector is accelerating, potentially expanding the addressable market for Upstart’s technology.
