The self-service alternative to a broker

Sell your small business
without a broker at all.

Not a cheaper broker. Not an AI-powered broker. An intelligent workflow platform that replaces the repeatable parts of a business sale — so you can run the process yourself and keep the six-figure commission.

No commission · No broker · SaaS pricing

Sale of a $1.5M business

Save~$145,000

A broker takes 10% at close — on money you earned. We charge a flat annual or monthly fee.

Get back150+ hours

No more repeating your story 15 times. Tell it once, qualify buyers async, only meet the finalists.

Better buyers,faster

A broker works manually. We surface hundreds of qualified buyers and filter them down to the ones worth your time.

The 200-hour problem

A brokered sale takes 200+ hours.
Ours takes about 50.

Most first-time sellers assume the broker does most of the work. They don’t. The broker finds buyers, filters them lightly, and shepherds the deal emotionally. The seller does everything else — again, for every buyer. Here’s where those hours actually go.

Four structural changes

We replaced the repeatable parts
with software.

A broker’s process is built around a broker’s tools: calendar, email, phone. Ours is built around a seller running their own process. Four changes do almost all the work.

01
Your seller video
24:18 · recorded once
VIEWED BY
+ every qualified buyer

Tell your story once.

Record a 20–30 minute seller video during onboarding. Every qualified buyer watches it before requesting a meeting. You never tell the same origin story fifteen times again.

02
ASYNC QUALIFICATION FUNNEL
120
Interested buyers
42
Proof of funds verified
18
Data-room reviewed
6
Submitted structured LOI

Buyers qualify themselves.

Proof of funds, data-room review, structured questionnaire — all async, before a buyer gets near your calendar. You only meet live with buyers who've done their homework, know the background of your business and are serious about making an offer.

Documents generate themselves.

When you and a buyer align, our library generates the APA, promissory note, security agreement, and supporting docs. Your attorney reviews instead of drafts — legal bills drop from $10–15K to $1.5–3K.

Broker vs platform

Different company.
Different category.

We are not a broker. We are not a cheaper broker. We are not an AI-powered broker. We’re a workflow platform — that distinction is the business. Save time and money.

Why this is a better process for small businesses:Even with a broker, the seller is running the process; taking meetings, repeating themselves, negotiating price/terms. You know your business best — might as well use tools to streamline the process and keep the proceeds.

Layer 3 · Creative structures

Whichever deal shape
actually gets you there.

Most sellers don’t know they want a creative structure until they see the numbers. We surface the options at the right moment — usually when you see the valuation gap between what cash buyers will pay and what a different deal shape unlocks.

What you pay

Pricing built for software, not commissions.

Traditional brokers charge 10% of your sale price. On a $1.5M deal, that’s $150,000. Here’s what BizTender costs.

Four categories.
Only one of them is us.

Four different categories. Similar surface area, completely different shapes underneath. The biggest confusion is that we look adjacent to all of them — and we’re actually adjacent to none of them.
