ExitReady

Know your SaaS exit number before buyers do

01The Problem

A founder talked to 30 buyers and learned the hard way: growth rate didn't matter. What killed deals was customer concentration (42% from top 5 — buyers walked), competitive defensibility ('what if AI enters?'), and founder dependency ('what happens when you leave?'). Most founders discover these dealbreakers mid-process, when it's too late to fix them.

02The Solution

ExitReady connects to your Stripe, CRM, and calendar to continuously track the metrics acquirers actually evaluate. Customer concentration index, founder dependency score, competitive moat rating, revenue quality grade. A-F exit readiness score with specific actions to improve each dimension. Start tracking now, sell on your terms later.
