We'd love to have that conversation with you, but we won't put a number in front of you until we can stand behind it. First, we need a few real numbers this conversation didn't ask for. Add them and your VQ sharpens on the spot; then an Agora advisor will review your record personally and get back to you within a few business days.
A higher VQ doesn't mean your business will sell, many never do, and many that do leave real value on the table. It means you're building toward a premium outcome with competitive bidders and your choice of buyer, on your timeline, so a life event or a market shift never forces a discount. A lower read isn't a verdict; it's a map of where your leverage gets built.
Predictable revenue, a team that runs without you, clean reporting, they take time to show up. It typically takes two to three years of financials trending up to command the top of your range, and they make the business calmer to run today, not just worth more later. Start now and they're real before a transition is ever on the table.
A senior advisor verifies your VQ against evidence, writes your insights report, and walks your prioritized plan through with you one to one, for $2,499.
A senior advisor re-scores your business against evidence, the self-reported width above narrows to ±2.
Written commentary across all seven dimensions and ~50 signals, specific to your business, not a template.
A senior advisor walks the findings through with you, live, and answers what the report raises.
Which moves could lift your value most, in what order, and why, sequenced for your business, not a checklist.
What done looks like at 90 days and 12 months, so progress is checkable, by you.
Build, Fortify, and Command, advisory programs to execute the plan with us alongside you, when you're ready.
The customer talks to an adaptive interviewer. Your scoring IP lives behind a wall they have no channel to. Five layers, they can only ever reach the top two.
Renders the chat, the chips, the one-line nuance field. Holds no rubric, no weights, no scores. Open the dev tools and there's nothing to find.
Holds session state, decides what to ask next, runs the math. The only place secrets live. Your API keys never touch the browser. On completion it emails the owner their results link and notifies the Agora advisor.
The part that feels human. It asks great questions and adapts to size + industry, but it's an intake specialist, not a judge. It doesn't even hold your 1–5 mapping. Extract its whole prompt and you get questions, not the moat.
A separate, server-to-server call that reads the finished transcript and maps each metric to a score + confidence against your rubric. The customer has no channel to it, prompt injection in the chat can't reach it.
Your Excel scorer as code: weights, band thresholds, category roll-ups, the range. No LLM: it can't be talked into anything. Never leaves your server.
Model choice: Sonnet for the interviewer (conversation quality is the product), Haiku for the cheap structured scorer, human review still gates the paid Insights report. This demo runs on Haiku, production on Sonnet reads even smoother.
