Common questions

Do I need the Decision Kit if I already bought the Analyzer?

Only if you are comparing multiple franchises, preparing to negotiate, or want to talk to existing franchisees with structured scripts. If you just needed the FDD broken down, the Analyzer alone is enough.

How is this different from a franchise attorney?

We analyze the operational and financial patterns in your FDD. A franchise attorney reviews legal exposure and negotiates contract terms. Both matter. We recommend using our tools first to identify what to dig into, then bringing the findings to your attorney.

Is the AI analysis accurate?

The AI identifies patterns across all 23 FDD items against 50+ known risk signals. It is analysis, not legal advice. We do not guarantee it catches every issue, which is why we recommend pairing it with an attorney review before signing.

What if I want a refund?

If a tool fails to deliver a usable report, we refund in full within 14 days. Email hello@franchisecaliber.com.

Do I need to create an account?

No. Purchase, get your access link by email, use the tool. No login, no password, no account management.
