Turn a messy P&L into a buyer-ready valuation.
Cairn reads the financials, surfaces every add-back, and produces a quality-of-earnings exhibit and a confidential CIM that hold up under diligence. You confirm every number — nothing is auto-applied.
14-day free trial · nothing charged today · your data deletes on demand
The five stages, in real time.
A 45-second walkthrough of the real product — from the raw financials to a finished CIM. Narrated, and nothing sped past.
From shoebox to data room.
A pipeline, not a pile of tabs.
Drop the returns, P&Ls, bank statements. Cairn reads them page by page.
Every extraction cross-checked against the form's own math.
Suggested with evidence. You confirm — nothing is auto-applied.
SDE, multiples, deal structures — defensible and sourced.
A branded CIM and QoE exhibit, ready for the buyer list.
Four exhibits. One engine.
Deposits matched to reported revenue, month by month — variance flagged when it exceeds 2%.
Blind name, scrubbed identity, asking price and structure — everything a buyer sees, nothing they shouldn’t.
See a real CIM →Internal-only: methodology, caveats, and the add-back decisions you made — your defense file for diligence.
Reels, TikTok & LinkedIn cuts from the deal’s real numbers — licensed footage, music, professional voiceover. Blind name enforced; a leak guard blocks any render that would show the real one.
Per-CIM brand presets — a different firm name, logo, color, or broker per document · light or dark theme · the real business name scrubbed everywhere
It argues with the numbers, so the buyer can't.
The same dollar seen on the return, the books, and the seller’s sheet becomes one decision — not three.
Every statement is checked against every other. A disagreement becomes a plain question you can hand the seller.
You are handing Cairn a seller’s real financials. We treat that as the whole job.
Access is scoped to your firm, and to individual deals within it. Sharing is explicit and revocable at any time; we never hold your master credentials.
Financial documents and extracted figures are encrypted, isolated per deal, and never exposed to other accounts.
Every number in a memorandum traces to the worksheet and extraction behind it. Nothing reaches a buyer unverified.
Remove a deal and everything in it, documents and derived figures, in one action.
Priced by the work, not the worry.
Deals are generous on every plan — your pipeline is never the squeeze. Video renders are the only meter, and drafts are always free.

Asked and answered.
What is a CIM (confidential information memorandum)?
The document buyers receive when evaluating a business for sale: the story, the financials, the asking price and structure — with the seller's identity scrubbed behind a blind name. Cairn generates branded, confidential CIMs where every figure traces to a source document.
What is SDE and how does Cairn calculate it?
Seller's Discretionary Earnings is a small business's true owner benefit: net income plus owner salary, discretionary spending, and one-time costs added back. Cairn extracts the figures from tax returns, books, and statements, cross-checks them against each form's own math, and computes SDE with every add-back traced to evidence.
Does Cairn automatically apply add-backs?
No. Cairn suggests add-backs with the evidence behind them, and you confirm every one. The same dollar seen on the tax return, the books, and the seller's sheet becomes one decision — not three — and nothing reaches a buyer unconfirmed.
How much does Cairn cost?
Solo is $119/month (1 seat, 15 active deals, 10 video renders a month), Firm is $289/month (5 seats included, expandable to 10 at $79/seat, with 50 active deals and 50 video renders plus 10 of each per added seat), and Brokerage is $649/month (10 seats included, $59 per additional seat, unlimited deals and videos, priority render queue). CIMs, QoE reports, and PDFs are unlimited on every plan; video drafts and quick edits are always free. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial — nothing is charged today, and plans prorate or cancel anytime.
Can Cairn make marketing videos for my listings?
Yes — branded teaser videos in three formats (20-second vertical for Reels and TikTok, a 60-second full story, and a square cut for LinkedIn), built from the deal's real numbers with licensed footage, a music bed, and professional voiceover narration. Confidential mode never shows the real business name, and a leak guard blocks a render if it would.
How does Cairn keep seller financials confidential?
Documents are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM), isolated per firm at the database layer, and never used to train models. CIMs scrub the real business name everywhere by default, and a deal and everything in it can be deleted on demand.
Who is Cairn for?
Business brokers and M&A advisors selling main-street and lower-middle-market businesses — anyone who turns a seller's shoebox of financials into a defensible valuation and a buyer-ready package.
