What you get

Ranked by fit, with the reasons shown

M&A attorneys, CPAs, quality-of-earnings providers, SBA lenders, insurance, escrow and business brokers, ranked on state, sector, deal size and experience. Every result shows why it scored where it did.

Reviews that stay up

Buyer reviews publish when they’re submitted and stay up when they’re negative. Each says whether the reviewer hired the advisor or only talked with them, and reviews come down only for abuse.

Sponsors you can always spot

Sponsored advisors are labeled, capped at three per search, and pay a flat monthly fee. They earn nothing more if you close, and advertiser code is blocked from touching the scorecard or any AI analysis.

Lender pre-qualification tracker

Track every lender as Not contacted, Contacted, Application submitted, Pre-qualified or Declined, attach documents to each, and see sponsored SBA 7(a) lenders in your state, labeled as sponsored.

How it works

    See why each advisor ranked where they did and what other buyers said, good or bad.

  3. 3

    Reach out on your terms

    Your details are shared only when you click Contact.

What it doesn’t do

Straight answers, so nothing here surprises you after you sign up.

  • Advisors aren’t vetted or verified by numanknows. Use the reviews and your own judgment.
  • You can’t apply to a lender from inside the app. The tracker records where each lender stands.
  • Ratings never change the ranking order.
