What is FirmFlare?

FirmFlare is an AI-powered search engine specifically designed to help you find businesses for sale. We scan the internet for listings and use artificial intelligence to provide an intelligent, natural language search experience. Our goal is to help connect business buyers and sellers as efficiently as possible.

How does FirmFlare work?

Simply type in your search in plain language and our system will automatically return results for your specific search request. You can use descriptive language to specify exactly what you are looking for, and our AI not only understands your plain language requests but also helps categorize and rank listings to find the best matches.

Examples:

"Fried chicken in Kentucky"

"Wellness business for less than 500k"

"Education franchise"

Is FirmFlare a business broker?

No, we are a search engine. None of the business listings we show are owned by us, and we encourage users to visit the original source websites (link available for each listing) for more information.

Where do you get your listings from?

We analyze over 1,000 business listing sources across the internet. Our goal is to comprehensively cover all available public sources.

How up-to-date are the listings?

We update our search engine listing index daily to ensure we can provide the most recent data.

What types of businesses can I find?

We broadly cover all industries and sizes within the small and medium-sized business (SMB) sector. Currently we focus on US businesses.

Is the FirmFlare search service free to use?

Yes we are providing our initial AI-assisted search service for free to the community. We hope to initiate a new, industry-wide approach to the search phase of business acquisition.

Do I need to create an account to search?

No, we do not require account creation to search, however we do have rate limit restrictions to prevent abuse. Users with accounts will have less restrictions.

How does FirmFlare make money?

We intend to continually add new features to support professional users, which will be available as a premium subscription. Saved searches, advanced analytics, personalized alerts and more coming soon!
