Nuts & Bolts

Traditional financing wasn’t built for high-growth businesses. We changed that.

You shouldn’t have to choose between scaling and ownership. With Tenami, you get both.
What We're Looking For
Minimum LTM Revenue of $5M
Healthy growth of between 20 – 30%

Capital efficiency to demonstrate scalability

How We Invest
We invest early in companies that are EBITDA-positive or on the path to profitability.
We move quickly—structured deals, transparent terms, and aligned incentives.
We don’t waste time negotiating valuations—we care about growth, sustainability and buyback potential.
When we pass, we explain why. Always.

What You Need To Know
How does Tenami's model work?
We provide an investment in the form of callable instrument (equity or convertible note) with a capped return. The Company has the option to buy back the instrument every set frequency (e.g. six months) based on a fixed percentage of its revenue until the capped return is achieved, in either cash or equity.
What types of companies do we fund?
We look for strong founders and management teams, operating high growth businesses, profitable or on the path to profitability with our investment. We are sector agnostic.
What returns can investors expect over what period?
Dependent on the risk of the opportunity we target 1.5x-2.5x capital invested over a 3-5 year period through semi-annual distributions.
