Mosts owners don’t know what their businesses are really worth — and when an average valuation costs $8,000, you can’t really blame them. That’s why Baton is committed to ensuring our valuations are 100% free. No fees. No add-ons. No upselling.

We’ll use your own data to estimate a valuation, track changes as your finances evolve, and suggest ways to increase it.

Whatever your next move is, we’ve got you. Tap into our nationwide network of small business experts and brokers, or connect with buyers who share your values.

The security and privacy of your financial data are our top priority. We give you control over everything you share and only use tech that meets the highest standards for security, from mandatory security training and background checks to continuous monitoring to keep your data safe.
