BizScout is a technology startup headquartered in Austin, TX, and we are revolutionizing the way everyday individuals engage in buying and selling businesses, moving away from the traditional realm of Wall Street.

With a grand vision to pair technology with brokerage services, we aim to establish ourselves as the premier destination for business exchanges, driven by genuine human connections, and we need your help to do it.
