The keys to
something good.

For the people ready to buy a small business.
And the owners ready to pass one on.

Join the waitlist.

Three independent businesses along a panoramic street. Choose a building to bring its windows, door and everyday details to life. An owner waves hello, with plants, outdoor chairs and a parked bicycle.

Your next chapter
starts here.

Your ambition. An existing foundation.

Still exploring? That’s a good place to start. Join now, and take your next step when you’re ready.

You built it.
Let the story go on.

Years of hard work deserve a thoughtful next step. Start exploring a handover that respects what you’ve built, and the people behind it.

Your timing. Your next chapter.

This year, next year, or a little further away. You don’t need a fixed exit date to start a conversation.

The keys change hands.
The good things stay.

Worth carrying forward

Make space for the team, customers and relationships that keep a business going.

Pass on the little things that took years to learn. Give a new owner a real head start.

Keep a strong foundation. Leave room for a fresh perspective and new ideas.

A thoughtful handover begins long before the final handshake. That’s the kind of next chapter we’re here to assist you with.

The next chapter
could be yours.

Buying, selling, or just beginning to wonder.
There’s a place for you here.

A few things
you might be wondering.

Can I buy or list a business yet?

Not yet. We're bringing together interested buyers and business owners before launch to best understand how we can help. The waitlist is the first step; there are no live listings or transactions on this site.

What kinds of businesses is this for?

Maychant is for people interested in buying or selling an independent small business. We're learning from owners and future owners across different industries. Joining helps us understand what matters to you.

Do I need to be ready right now?

No. You might be exploring ownership for the first time, or thinking about selling a few years from now. You're welcome to join. It doesn't commit you to a purchase or sale.

What happens after I join?

We save your name, email or phone number, and interest in buying, selling or both. We'll contact you about launch and early access as Maychant develops. There isn't a fixed launch date yet.

Maychant waitlist

Your details,
treated with care.

When you join, Maychant stores your name, the email address or phone number you provide, your interest in buying or selling, and when you joined and agreed to updates. We keep this in our hosted database and a private Google Sheet used to manage the waitlist.

We use this information to manage the waitlist and contact you about launch and early access. Your details are not posted publicly or sold. No advertising trackers are installed. We keep short-lived hashed request identifiers to limit spam; we do not store raw IP addresses in the waitlist database.

To ask about your details, update them or leave the waitlist, email krishdw@umich.edu.

Joining does not create a business listing, guarantee a match or commit you to a transaction.
