The problem it solves
Finding businesses worth investigating, and understanding the owner, succession, and real-estate angles before capital is committed.
What happens
What you provide
- Your acquisition box: vertical, geography, size
- Any target list you already have
- What would make you walk away
What you receive
- Target shortlist
- Buyability score with reasons
- Real-estate exposure per target
- Signal list with sources
- Diligence plan
Delivery format. Scoped by written quote first. Delivered by email as a human-readable report plus a machine-readable receipt naming inputs, sources, and unknowns. Founder-operated.
What an engagement looks like
Ten HVAC contractors across two counties. The screen links six to owner-occupied commercial property, flags two owners past retirement age with no visible successor, and ranks a shortlist of three with the diligence questions for each.
Illustrative scenario written to show the shape of the work. It is not a customer result; no customer has bought this product yet.- Small business acquisition search
- Owner retirement and succession
- Operating business tied to commercial real estate
- Distressed operator search
- Buy-and-build sourcing
Why you can trust it
Real today
- The entity, ownership, and property-linkage method exists in the DeedSonar lineage and is applied here to businesses instead of parcels.
- No business-acquisition engagement has been sold or delivered yet. This is the least proven of the ten.
Demonstration only
The browser calculator is a screening toy, not a valuation. Paid work uses public evidence, entity and property linkage, and explicit unknowns.
Method lineage: DeedSonar production court (2026-08-23).
No customer engagement yet. Public hard zeros apply.
Every receipt cited here is dated and vendored in the public repository or compiled on /proof. The hard zeros on /refusals apply: no revenue, no customers, no outreach as of the dated snapshot.

Where this product stands on the commercial ladder
Product → Offer → Checkout or quote → Intake → Fulfillment → Delivery → Receipt → Outcome. A rung is PROVEN LIVE only when it has been exercised on the public site and courted. Fulfillment, delivery, and receipt are founder-operated and become PROVEN LIVE only with a delivered, receipted engagement. The test-mode tape for the four priority offers is in the public repository under docs/receipts-external.
Status labels distinguish live cashiers, founder-set prices without checkout, and test pricing. No customer results, counts, or automation are claimed.
