# Goldfinch's Borrowers

You can learn more about Borrowers and the role they play in the protocol in the [Borrowers](/goldfinch/goldfinch-v1/protocol-mechanics/borrowers.md) section of the Protocol Mechanics documentation.

* Borrowers are able to raise unitranche loan structure allowing them to pay a single interest rate with all interest and principal payments made into a single portal
* Borrowers have the ability to propose any investments based on any terms, and transaction structures to the Goldfinch community
* The Goldfinch ecosystem was built to be generalized allowing for many Borrower archetypes that could raise capital through it. Some examples Borrower types include, but are not limited to:
  * Credit Funds
  * Fintechs

Below are some articles highlighting past borrowers on the protocol:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.goldfinch.finance/goldfinch/goldfinch-v1/borrower-mechanics/goldfinchs-borrowers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
