devtimate

Payback at the stated margin, asking multiple vs the category median, and profit margin. The heaviest axis: what you pay for what it earns.

Revenue trend over the last ~90 days from our daily snapshots (30-day figure when history is short), capped so one spike can't dominate, minus a penalty for erratic revenue.

Paying customers, revenue scale and traffic (log scales), plus live-site health (reachable pricing page, core pages, maintained site).

AI-disruption risk, organic search presence, recurring B2B revenue; penalties for thin AI wrappers and no-code lock-in.

How turnkey the takeover is: diversity of marketing channels, Merchant-of-Record status, team.

Higher = safer. Business age, breadth of the customer base (concentration risk), recurring vs one-off revenue, known payment provider.

Structured market read across TAM, saturation, 3-year trend, and hype cycle, blended with our category momentum signal.
