Check a business-for-sale listing for red flags
check_listingRead-onlyIdempotent
Runs FirstPass Memo's 33 published red-flag rules on a small online-business listing (SaaS, content site, ecommerce, Amazon FBA, newsletter, app; roughly $10k-$150k) from Flippa, Empire Flippers, Acquire.com or any broker. Pass the listing text the user provides and/or the key numbers. Returns payback in months, the asking multiple vs comparable listings, every flag that fired (severity, why it matters, link to the rule) and questions to ask the seller. Screening only: not advice, a valuation or verification. Does not fetch URLs.
