Blair
Financing education through Income Share Agreements
Raised a +100M Debt fund to finance thousands of students in the US. Raised 7.5M in Equity from top-tier VCs and multiple Unicorn Founders. Sold all assets in 2022 after regulatory changes in our space. Lots of learnings and many lives we changed for the better :)

Constantin Schreiber, Founder
Dropped out of college to build Blair (YC S19) where we raised a +100M to build income-based financing solutions for students in the US. At Blair, I led the engineering team to build audit-proof software that moved millions of dollars in student funds on a weekly basis. Two fun facts about me: I built autonomous drones for Porsche and was mining crypto to pay for college (and other things).
