ClearValue Advisory exists because every business owner deserves a real, defensible valuation. Not a guess from an online calculator and not a $5,000 quote from an advisor they only need once.
For decades, the question "What's my business actually worth?" has had two answers: a cheap online estimator that nobody trusts, or a six-week engagement with a boutique M&A shop that prices most owners out. We built ClearValue to close that gap.
Industry comparables, multiples, discounted cash flow, asset-based. The same valuation framework a boutique M&A advisor uses, applied consistently to every engagement.
ClearValue Advisory is built on the same SDE framework institutional M&A advisors use to value Main Street and lower-middle-market businesses. Every assessment includes a formal Normalization Schedule — a line-by-line recast of reported income that identifies and documents every legitimate add-back. For Enterprise assessments, the AI performs document-level analysis — cross-referencing uploaded tax returns and financial statements against conversation inputs, flagging discrepancies, and identifying potential add-backs that may not have been captured. The AI is designed to ask the questions a human M&A advisor would ask — including follow-up probes on expense categories that appear high for the industry and potential hidden add-backs.
No two-week turnarounds. Snapshot and Full Assessment reports generate before you close the tab. Enterprise turnaround is typically within 1 business day.
Three published tiers, no proposals, no hourly billing, no scope creep. You see the price before you start. You only pay when the report is ready to download.
Every deliverable is formatted for the audiences you'll actually hand it to. Banks, buyers, partners, lawyers. Polished, branded, and structured the way they expect.
Business brokers and M&A advisors use ClearValue under their own brand. Their portal, their logo on every page, their client list. Our valuation engine doing the heavy lifting.
Every assessment is analyzed by our AI engine using institutional-grade methodology. If something doesn't fit your situation, contact support and we'll regenerate.
ClearValue Advisory was built by an M&A professional with hands-on experience in business exits and acquisitions, after years of watching small business owners pay too much or wait too long for a real valuation. The pattern was always the same. Owners making the biggest financial decisions of their lives without the analysis they actually needed. ClearValue closes that gap.
The pattern was always the same. An owner would consider selling, refinancing, taking on a partner, or planning their exit. And the cost of getting a defensible number put the whole effort on hold. The market was forcing owners to make some of the biggest financial decisions of their lives without the analysis they actually needed.
ClearValue collapses that gap. We pair a guided AI analyst with proven valuation methodology to deliver the same caliber of work boutique advisors charge thousands for. Same session, fixed price, owner-ready.
