... spent the last ~8/9 months analysing micro-acquisition deals (mostly on Flippa, Acquire, IndieHackers, TrustMRR) with the goal of building a small portfolio on the side. After ~700 hours reviewing listings, one thing became obvious: due diligence at this level is still very manual and fragmented. So I started building a tool for myself to speed things up. The requirements were simple: Flag inconsistencies between P&L, listings, and screenshots Detect unusual spikes/drops in traffic or revenue Keep deal ... ... manual due diligence is exactly the kind of pain that makes a tool worth building. The P&L inconsistency flagging alone would save most buyers from a bad deal. Curious whether you're planning to integrate directly with Flippa

... People who buy online businesses: Where do you usually find acquisition opportunities? Most marketplaces like Acquire or Flippa seem very competitive once a business is listed. Have you ever tried reaching out to founders before they list their business for sale? I m validating a startup idea called Fountrix.

... When I interviewed one founder, he mentioned a few sites where you can sell your business, such as: Acquire BizBuySell Flippa GetAcquired Reddit (yeah, this one too) Do you know more sites? The question also is: Do you always sell your unwanted biz? (I could see many people abandon it, sell it to a friend or pass it to a family member.)

... friend of mine who is working at 1752vc, the competitive advantage of software lies in the data and clients. Comment from steve beyatte(@steveb): I have a different take on this. Most acquirers are deciding between buy vs build. The main reasons they choose buy is: The cost to build is too high or presents too many unknowns (execution, strategic, etc.) The product they're eyeing has a strategic, fast-growing, and/or otherwise attractive distribution moat Said another ... ... moat did you build? If Cursor can one-shot the entire product and you have no sales, there's nothing defensible there. That's why we're already seeing a huge wave of products with no/low sales on @Acquire.com @Flippa
