About ten minutes, five dimensions, one honest read on where your business stands, what a buyer would see, and the one thing holding your value back. Free, with a reply in 24 hours. Built by operators who've sat across the table from owners contemplating exit, growth, and capital events.
A CFA who's operated through a $200M sale, and a CPA who's reviewed 100+ business sales from the buyer's side. We built the Foundation Check because we kept meeting owners who hadn't been asked the right questions. Not a survey. Not a marketing funnel. A real read, prepared by people who've sat through the exits, capital raises, and operating cycles you're staring at.
Most diagnostics give you a number and call it a day. We give you the number, the read on each dimension, the one binding constraint named, and the right next step for your situation, plus a frank view of what a sophisticated buyer would see in this business today.
About 30 questions, adapted to your situation, one honest answer each. Your Bedrock Score, the read on each dimension, and the named binding constraint appear instantly on the next screen and arrive in your inbox as a result you can forward.
Then we read it. Personally. Jared and Ryan review every submission flagged for follow-up and reply with a tailored note within 24 hours. No drip funnels, no boilerplate, no cookie-cutter outputs.
Not a formal valuation. Not investment advice. Not for use in litigation, divorce, or tax filings. The Foundation Check is a directional self-assessment intended to surface the conversations worth having.
