Scaling a workflow platform to help small-business owners successfully exit their companies.

• Market need: 51% of U.S. small-business owners are nearing retirement age, yet most are unprepared to exit.
• Core problem: Roughly 80% of small-business sales fail due to lack of preparation, fragmented processes, and surprises during due diligence.
• Platform solution: Mavrek offers a guided, AI-supported workflow that boosts deal close rates, reduces costs, and increases transparency.
• Monetization strategy: The company is introducing multiple revenue streams starting in 2025, including subscriptions and transaction support.
• Traction and validation: Hundreds of business sales have been facilitated on the platform, with positive feedback from CPAs, brokers, and sellers.

Mavrek is raising capital to scale its AI-supported platform that helps small-business owners navigate the complex and often unsuccessful process of selling their companies. With over half of SMB owners nearing retirement, the platform addresses the growing need for structured exits in what is being called the “Silver Tsunami”—a $10 trillion wealth-transfer opportunity. Mavrek’s technology simplifies the exit process with step-by-step workflows that reduce deal failures caused by lack of preparation and inefficient coordination. By increasing transparency, reducing legal and advisory costs, and shortening time to close, Mavrek supports business owners, brokers, and advisors in achieving more successful outcomes.

Having validated product-market fit and incorporated feedback from hundreds of users, the company is now focused on monetizing its platform through subscription fees, referral income, and transaction support services. The funds raised will support the launch of these revenue streams starting in 2025, while also expanding platform functionality and customer onboarding. Mavrek plans to guide sellers from preparation through post-sale using proprietary AI workflows, intelligent deal matching, and automated support tools. With a leadership team experienced in M&A and business exits, Mavrek is building infrastructure to support the transition of millions of small businesses as their owners approach retirement.
