PVL simulates thousands of Chapter 13 recovery scenarios across your portfolio — so your bid reflects probability, not guesswork.
484,845 consumer bankruptcy cases were filed in 2024. The median debtor earns $4,060/month and spends $3,522 — leaving razor-thin plan funding. Here's what that means for your recovery odds.
Dismissed for non-payment

Every chart below is built from actual PVL engine output on a live portfolio — completion odds, projected cash flow, and recovery confidence ranges.
Every claim is scanned for factors that raise or lower recovery odds. Here's what we flagged in a live portfolio.
We model how the trustee actually disburses cash — across every tier — so you know what your unsecured position will realistically recover.
Three layers of analysis that tell you what each claim will recover and when the cash will flow.
We simulate the cash flow on every claim 5,000+ times — varying payment speed, dismissal odds, funding rate, and macro shocks. Instead of one recovery estimate, you get a range: best case, worst case, and most likely.
Every claim gets a recovery value calibrated against five years of actual trustee cash flow. 13+ risk factors — pro se status, wage orders, lien strips, docket signals, district patterns — all roll into the odds of you getting paid.
40+ docket patterns that move the odds — prior filings, missed 341 meetings, cramdown motions, payment gaps. We flag the claims most likely to stop paying before the cash flow dries up.
Upload any portfolio file. We return recovery odds and projected cash flow on every claim — scored, ranked, and ready for your IC.
Actual recovery data feeds back into the engine. Every portfolio you acquire makes the next set of odds more accurate.
Real cash flow comes in. We compare it to what we projected. The difference tunes the model — so the next portfolio's recovery odds are tighter.
