The 250

We started with 4,000. We kept the 250 we would recommend to a family member.

Most franchise directories list every brand that paid to be there. We don’t take listing fees. Every franchise in our network passed a multi-point vetting process built around one question: would a well-informed person — with full knowledge of the economics — actually be happy they bought this?

01
Franchisee Renewal Rate
High renewal means people are actually making money and staying in.
02
Item 19 Earnings Transparency
We only include franchisors who are transparent about what owners actually earn.
03
Franchisee Turnover
High turnover is a red flag regardless of what the sales deck says.
04
Litigation History
A few lawsuits in a large system is normal. A pattern is not.
05
Minimum 3 Years Operating
No unproven concepts. We don’t let you fund someone else’s experiment.
06
Investment Range Integrity
Real-world costs must match FDD estimates.
Why Us

The broker model has an incentive problem.
We removed the incentive.

Traditional brokers earn more for steering you toward certain brands. Our matching algorithm doesn’t know what any franchisor pays us — that variable isn’t in the model. Four structural differences, not marketing claims:

01
Commission-blind matching
Referral fees are not an input to the algorithm. It literally cannot rank a brand higher because it pays us more.
02
Pre-vetted network only
We removed 93% of the market. Every brand passed FDD review, turnover analysis, and earnings-transparency checks.
03
Territory-first reveal
We confirm availability in your market before you see brand names. No falling in love with something you can’t have.
04
Opt-in introductions only
No franchisor gets your contact info until you explicitly ask. No cold calls, ever.

Why we built it this way — the full story →

The typical search takes 3–6 months of the wrong work.

Comparing thousands of brands. Taking calls from brokers with a financial stake in your decision. FranSelectAI replaces that noise with a 3-minute assessment that cuts straight to the franchises actually worth your time.
