From an appraisal you can already name to a yield that keeps earning — the machine never leaves the floor, the field, or the road.
An equipment appraisal — manufacturer, dealer, or auction-house valuation — establishes what the machine is worth on a working secondary market. Title and possession stay with you; Plinth does not take custody of the equipment.
Plinth sizes a fixed, non-recourse liquidity advance against the equity above the existing equipment loan, capital lease, or floorplan and issues PL/EQ tokens one-for-one against the size of that advance. The advance is not a refinance; no new debt is layered on the machine.
The advance is deployed into approved external venues producing disclosed yield. The capital provider receives their share from that deployment — never from owner payments, appreciation, or sale proceeds. Yield cycles continuously, not as a one-off payout.
The protocol accepts a broad range of working equipment. The narrow part of the process is the appraisal; once a credible manufacturer, dealer, or auction valuation is on file, the rest is the same equity-as-liquidity model.
Commercial digital presses, offset presses, large-format and packaging lines with a manufacturer or dealer-tracked secondary market.
CNC mills, lathes, laser tables, and fabrication cells used in job shops and small-batch manufacturing.
High-horsepower tractors, combines, sprayers, and specialty harvest gear with an active dealer and auction market.
Restaurant and institutional kitchen lines, refrigeration, and packaging equipment with recognizable resale value.
Single-unit delivery trucks, refrigerated bodies, specialty haulers, and small working fleets with verifiable mileage and condition.
Imaging, lab, and point-of-care machines cleared for resale through manufacturer or specialist channels.
Title and possession stay with you — on the floor, in the field, or on the road. Your existing lender, lessor, or floorplan holder keeps their position; Plinth takes a transparent on-chain claim on the equity above it. No new encumbrance, no refinance, no second lien against the business.
A permitted sale or trade closes the existing Plinth position under defined redemption and settlement terms. Any new owner does not inherit the previous advance — they complete a separate eligibility review and receive new advance terms on the new ownership. Until that review is complete and the position is redeemed, the existing advance’s settlement terms apply.
Sale mechanics, notice timing, and the new-owner eligibility path are subject to final terms and counsel review.
The intake walks through the equipment, the existing loan or lease, and the appraisal path. You see the math before anything is signed or minted.
No forms before you’re ready. The intake is a single guided flow.
