FranchiseIQ
We built the platform we wish existed when we were evaluating franchises.
Data-driven, not emotion-driven.
FDDs are 200+ pages. Nobody has time.
Franchise Disclosure Documents are packed with critical data — litigation history, financial performance, fee structures, termination rights. But at 200-800 pages, most prospective franchisees rely on the franchisor's sales pitch instead of the actual document.
That's a mistake. The FDD is the only place franchisors are legally required to disclose material facts about their business. But parsing it properly takes 20-40 hours of expert review.
What most franchise buyers do:
AI-powered analysis of every FDD
Cross-referenced with real loan outcomes. Red flags exposed in minutes, not weeks.
Complete Extraction
All 23 FDD items extracted and normalized. Every fee, every obligation, every restriction — searchable and comparable.
Red Flag Detection
Automated scanning for litigation patterns, excessive fees, territorial restrictions, and franchisee turnover signals.
SBA Cross-Reference
89,000+ real loan outcomes by franchise brand. See actual default rates, not projected success stories.
Scale That No Other Platform Matches
Public Data, Private Intelligence
We don't use surveys or franchisee testimonials. All our data comes from official public sources.
State FDD Registries
Wisconsin, California, and NASAA state disclosure filings — the most comprehensive collection of franchise disclosure documents anywhere.
SBA 7(a) Loan Data
89,000+ real franchise loan outcomes from the Small Business Administration. Actual default rates, not franchisee testimonials.
SEC Filings
Audited financial statements from publicly traded franchisors for cross-validation of disclosed performance metrics.
Our Mission
Make franchise due diligence data-driven, not emotion-driven.
Every franchisee deserves access to the same quality of due diligence that private equity firms use. We're building it.
