How we built this hub
The open source hub exists because the lower middle market deserves the same analytical rigor the biggest buyers already have. Every calculator here comes from a real workstream we run with sellers and buyers in home services.
Authors publish each tool after it's reviewed by Rob for accuracy and alignment with current market practice. Datasets ship with sample sizes and sources. Changes go through PR, with a public roadmap and changelog. Read our full methodology for how we build and verify every tool.
