Made in Canada, built on trust

Deavo is a data-rich, AI-assisted marketplace for buying and selling small and medium Canadian businesses — calm, confidential, and free.

Most Canadian business sales still happen in the dark: scattered listings, thin information, and no easy way for a buyer and a seller to find each other and build trust. We're changing that.

What we are

Deavo is a listings platform — not a broker. We help sellers advertise confidentially, help buyers discover and evaluate businesses with real data, and give both sides a private, secure place to talk. We never represent either party or take a success fee.

Who we serve

Our primary customer is brokers — we send them supply and pre-qualified buyers rather than competing with them. We also serve sellers going direct and buyers searching for their next business, from main-street shops to lower-mid-market companies.

How we're different

  • Blind listings and click-to-sign NDAs keep confidential details confidential.
  • AI works quietly in the background — fraud screening, listing drafting, and an industry-intelligence panel — never a chatbot in your face.
  • Canadian by design: StatCan/ISED benchmarks, CSBFP/BDC financing context, and tax nuance.
  • Free in v1, with no paywalls.

Deavo is an advertising platform, not a business broker — we never represent either party in a transaction and charge no success fees.
