How it works

Four steps. Walk away at any one.

No pitch. No follow-up barrage. You stay in control of each step.

  1. 01

    Answer five questions

    About 90 seconds. Nothing is uploaded, and no one calls unless you ask.

  2. 02

    Talk to our team

    A 20-minute call with us. We look at what you have and tell you straight whether it fits.

  3. 03

    Read the draft license

    We write up exactly which records would be included. You and your lawyer review it. Nothing moves until you sign.

  4. 04

    We deliver, you get paid

    Names come out, the buyer gets a copy, and you’re paid per contract schedule.

The deal

What you give. What you get.

Everything here goes into the contract.

The buyer pays us, so our services do not cost you a dime.

Privacy and control

Names come out first.

Customer and employee names, phones, emails and addresses are removed before any buyer sees a record.

You approve what’s included.

You approve what’s included. Not a real customer.*

What’s inside

Buyers want how the work gets done.

Your records show how a real business runs, day after day. You choose which systems and date ranges are in and what stays out.

Job and work records

Work orders, job notes, quotes and change orders. This is how the work really gets done.

Email and chats

Threads with customers, vendors and your team. Names come out first.

Documents and files

Proposals, checklists, procedures and drawings your team uses every day.

Accounting and billing

Invoices and estimates. Pricing you’d rather keep private can stay out.

Who is behind this

We run businesses too.

We’re Faraz and David. Between us, we’ve owned businesses for 10+ years. We’ve been through the business cycles.

We have gone through the entire process with our own businesses, so you can trust us to guide you.

Owner-run

Two founders who run the business. You talk to us, not an overseas worker.

Smooth Process

We faciliate every aspect of the deal until it closes.

Privacy First

All customer data is anonymized. You are in control.

In writing

What we promise, and what we can’t.

Every line below goes into the contract.

You approve every deal

Nothing is shared until you sign.

You keep the originals

A buyer gets a copy, for one purpose and a set time.

Names come out first

Customer and employee names, phones and emails are removed before any buyer sees a record.

Your lawyer reviews it

We send the draft license early. We don’t give legal advice.

You can walk away

At any step. No hard feelings and no follow-up barrage.

What we can’t promise

Not every business qualifies. Talk to us and we will advise you.

Not for everyone

When the honest answer is no.

We would rather tell you now than waste your time.

Client-owned work

If a contract says the client owns the work, those projects stay out. We check that together before anything goes further.

Records you can’t separate

If most of what you hold is personal or medical information that can’t be taken out, there may be nothing we can license.

You’d rather not

If you don’t want your records used to train AI, that’s a fair answer. Say no and we’ll leave it there.

Why this works

What’s in it for you.

No new project and no sale of the company. Here is what you get.

Money from work you already did

The records are already in your files. A buyer pays to learn from a copy of them.

You keep running the business

You keep the business, the originals and your customers. We find the buyer and handle the paperwork.

You stay in control

You approve each deal and you decide what’s in. Say no or walk away at any step.

Five questions

See if your records fit.

Five ordinary questions about how your company runs. Nothing to upload and no data team needed. You get a straight answer by email.

  • If it looks like a fit, you talk to a person
  • If it doesn’t, we say so
  • Nothing is shared with anyone else
Straight answers

The questions you’re already asking.

Including the ones we’d rather not get.

Is this a scam?

Fair question. We’re business owners ourselves, our names are on this page, and you pay nothing unless a deal you approved closes.

Am I selling my company?

No. It’s a license, not a sale. A buyer gets a copy of certain records, for one purpose and a set time. You keep the business, the originals and your customers.

What’s the catch? What’s your cut?

Our fee is paid entirely by the buyer, so we charge you nothing.

What about my customers’ privacy?

Names, phones, emails and addresses come out before any buyer sees a record. You approve what’s included, and we show you a before and after.

My employees never agreed to this.

Then those records stay out. We check what your handbook and policies allow first, and you can leave out HR files and personal chats.

My lawyer will say no.

Bring your lawyer. We send the draft license before you commit. We don’t give legal advice, and yours should read every word.

Am I giving away my edge?

The license sets one purpose, one term and limits on what the buyer can do. Pricing, bids and anything else you want protected can stay out.

How much of my time does it take? Do I clean anything up?

About 1 hour of yours and 4 hours from your staff. We do the rest. Messy is normal. You don’t clean anything up.

Will my business qualify?

Maybe not. Many won’t. Five questions will tell us, and if the answer is no, we’ll say so.
