Find the business
before it lists.
2.3 million owner-operated businesses will change hands in the next decade. Most buyers wait for listings. Otto finds them first — and starts the conversation on your behalf.
The Silver Tsunami
The biggest transfer of business wealth in American history is already underway.
Retiring business owners hold more than half of all small businesses in the United States. As they exit, millions of profitable, cash-flowing businesses will become available — many never publicly listed, sold quietly to the first serious buyer who showed up.
The buyers who win won't be watching BizBuySell. They'll already be in conversation with owners — months before the decision to sell is even made.

The Process
How Otto Finds Your Deals
From search parameters to warm conversation — fully automated, running while you sleep.
Target Your Market
You tell Otto what you're looking for — industry, geography, revenue range. It builds the search profile and gets to work.
Otto Searches 24/7
Otto combs Google Maps, BizBuySell, and the open web — surfacing businesses that match your criteria before they hit the main listings.
Leads Are Scored
Every result is scored: years in business, online presence, review velocity, owner age signals. The best opportunities surface first.
Otto Reaches Out
A 5-touch personalized email sequence goes out on your behalf — opening conversations with owners before they've even thought about selling.

Aspiring Buyers

Backed Buyers

Acquisition Entrepreneurs
