SME Succession Without the Drama
Tokenized Promises as a Service • Smart Contract Audits Planned Q1 2026
Why SME Succession Deals Fall Apart
Founders want to exit. Buyers want growth. But trust breaks down in the transition.
Earnout Disputes
"Did we hit $2M ARR or not?" Buyers and sellers argue over definitions, data sources, and calculation methods. Legal fees pile up. Deal sours.
Manual Tracking Hell
Spreadsheets, email chains, quarterly check-ins. No single source of truth. Founder says metrics were hit. Buyer says they weren't. Who's right?
Zero Transparency
Founder doesn't trust new management. Buyer doesn't trust founder's reporting. No audit trail. No way to prove what actually happened.
Legal Fees Eat the Deal
Every dispute means lawyers. Every milestone debate means arbitration. $50k-$200k in legal costs just to sort out what should be automated.

Compliance Templates
Halal-certified finance structures, GDPR-compliant data handling, jurisdiction-specific legal wrappers
Our templates are blockchain-agnostic. We help you choose the right infrastructure based on your requirements: transaction costs, finality speed, regulatory environment, and existing tech stack.
Example: $5M Acquisition with $2M Earnout
$3M upfront, $2M earnout if ARR hits $4M within 18 months.
Milestone: IF ARR ≥ $4M by Month 18, THEN release $2M.
Platform monitors ARR via Stripe API. Immutable record on-chain.
Milestone met → escrow releases $2M. No lawyers. No disputes.
