Why bizflip
Why deals move faster here
⚡
The fastest way to buy or sell a business.
Verified buyers, 2-click enquiries, built-in screening. Less time on tire-kickers, more time on real deals.
🗂️
End-to-end paperless: click — choose · click — authorize · boom — send.
NDAs, LOI/HOAs, Engagements, Listing Agreements, Purchase Agreements, signatures — one flow with seller or broker controlled access. Type a detail once and every document that needs it pulls it across. No email chains. No printing, scanning or posting. Auto-filled, signed, sent, countersigned (click click boom).
✨
AI does the heavy lifting. A person signs off.
AI reads your financials into the valuation, explains the earnings in plain English and drafts your listing copy. Everything it writes lands as a draft a person edits and approves.
🆓
Free to use.
Listing your business costs nothing and browsing costs nothing. That is the product, not an introductory offer — anything paid will always be optional and opt-in (Generative AI credits only — but these are optional).
🔍
Every fact has a source.
Figures are labelled by where they came from — read from filed financial statements, or advertised by the seller. Anything we only estimated is not shown as fact. You decide what to trust, before you spend a minute on a call.
