Analyzing business listings from broker sites in a Google Sheet is tedious and time-consuming, lacking automated financial analysis and red flag detection.
Existing tools either lack free tiers, don't integrate well with multiple broker sites, or require manual data entry into spreadsheets, making it hard to quickly screen and compare deals without paying.
