Talaty, a Moroccan fintech startup, is making waves in the financial world by offering AI-powered lending solutions tailored for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Established in 2022 by Soulaimane Lahrech, Simo Bernoussi, Ilyas Oudghiri, and Zakaria E., the company uses advanced artificial intelligence to simplify credit assessments, cutting operational costs and reducing default rates by up to 90%.
The startup’s innovative platform merges AI technology with behavioural finance insights, helping financial institutions streamline loan processes. This approach has positioned Talaty as a leader in providing instant lending solutions while promoting financial inclusion in Morocco.

Talaty recently secured funding from prominent investors Witamax and Renew Capital. While the exact amount remains undisclosed, this backing will enable the startup to solidify its presence in Morocco and explore expansion into neighbouring Francophone markets.

We’re thrilled to partner with Talaty and their captains to enhance access to credit for the underserved.”
