    It was helpful when you explained to us that business valuation involves blending financial expertise with a deep understanding of market dynamics to ensure our businesses are evaluated accurately and effectively. My brother plans to start a business brokerage soon, so he needs a software program to use for his valuations from now on. I’ll be sure to keep this in mind while I help him find the software he needs for his new business soon.

      Dear Clare,

      Thanks for your valuable insights. It’s an interesting coincidence as we are now developing software that performs DCF and Multiple-Based Valuation and also provides a detailed business plan. The app is called PrometAI and will be released in February 2024. We would love to receive your feedback on that App once it is live.

      Thanks again,

      BR,
