How AI Scores Replace What Brokers Used to Charge For
Business valuation, buyer qualification, and risk analysis used to cost thousands in broker and advisor fees. BIZLINX AI scores do all of it — instantly, and included in your $30 plan.
One of the things brokers have always sold is expertise. They know how to value a business. They know how to qualify a buyer. They know what risks will kill a deal. That knowledge used to be worth paying for.
AI has changed that equation completely.
The Analysis Brokers Used to Own
When you hired a broker, part of what you were paying for was their ability to:
- Assess your business's market value and exit readiness
- Screen buyers for financial qualification and seriousness
- Identify deal risks before they became deal killers
- Advise on positioning and timing
This was genuinely valuable expertise. It was also expensive — baked into a commission that came out of your sale price.
BIZLINX has built AI tools that do all of this, faster and more consistently than any individual broker.
AIExitScore™: Know Your Business Before Buyers Do
AIExitScore™ is a 25-question assessment that scores your business across five dimensions: financial health, operational strength, market position, growth potential, and exit readiness.
The result is a scored report that tells you exactly where you stand — and what to improve before you go to market. Buyers see a business that has been assessed and scored. Sellers go in with confidence and clarity.
A broker would spend weeks building a Confidential Business Review. AIExitScore™ does it in minutes.
InvestorScore™: Know Your Buyer Before You Waste Time
Not every buyer who expresses interest is a real buyer. Brokers spend enormous time screening inquiries — and still let unqualified buyers waste sellers' time.
InvestorScore™ scores buyers on nine factors: financial capacity, acquisition experience, industry fit, timeline, and more. Before you have a single conversation, you know whether the person on the other side of the table is serious.
That is not something a broker's gut feeling can replicate consistently. It is data-driven qualification at scale.
FDD Score™: Franchise Intelligence Without the Consultant
For franchise buyers, the Franchise Disclosure Document is the most important — and most intimidating — document in the process. FDD Score™ analyzes any FDD and returns a scored assessment of risk factors, financial obligations, and franchise health.
Franchise consultants charge thousands to do this analysis manually. FDD Score™ does it in minutes, for free.
The Advisor Is Still There When You Need Them
AI handles the analysis. But BIZLINX also has human advisors available at $50 per hour for sellers and buyers who want expert guidance on specific questions.
The difference is that you are not paying for analysis you could get from a tool. You are paying for judgment, negotiation support, and deal experience — the things that still benefit from a human touch.
Smarter Deals Start with Better Data
The broker model was built on information asymmetry. Brokers knew things sellers and buyers did not. That asymmetry is gone.
BIZLINX gives both sides of the deal the data they need to make smart decisions — without the middleman taking a cut. That is not just cheaper. It is better.
