Hearing about a sharper credit-scoring AI makes me want to read it like a spec sheet. With over $400M in loans already on the books, the model's precision must be pretty refined — I want to know exactly how that upgrade actually shows up in delivery riders' take-home pay.

Does Galgo finance things besides motorcycles too? First time hearing the name.

Targeting $500M revenue by 2030 — working backward from current loan volume, that's an aggressive growth curve.

Delivery-rider credit access is arguably a social-safety-net issue too — makes me wonder if leaning on private fintech alone is enough.

With $400M+ already in motorcycle loans, what I care most about is how interest rates and approval speed actually change.

"Biggest investment ever" sounds great, but it's still upstream — feels like a while before riders actually notice.
