Franchise database
Every brand we can see, drawn from the SBA loan record and state disclosure registries. What we hold differs brand by brand, and each page says which.
What we hold for each brand
A filing read brand has had its disclosure document read by a machine told to copy figures, never to compute them. Filing held means we have the document but have not read it yet. Loan record only means the brand appears in the SBA lending data — real outcome data — and we have no filing for it. Neither yet means we know the brand exists and hold nothing further.
About one read brand in five has no SBA loan record. That can mean its franchisees do not borrow through the SBA, or that we have not matched it to the lending data — from the outside the two look the same, so we do not guess between them. Those pages say the record is missing rather than leaving the silence to be read as a good result.

The fee, the investment range and the loan record are free — for every brand, without an account. Revenue is the one figure a credit opens, along with the rest of the filing: every ongoing fee priced out, the outlet churn, the terms and the flags. What access costs.
Revenue is the Item 19 average per outlet as the filing states it; ? marks one whose population the filing leaves ambiguous, which is not comparable with the rest. Charged off is the share of finished loans the SBA wrote off, coloured by the thresholds this site flags on: none, under 15%, 15%+, 25%+. Shown only where at least 20 loans have finished.
