Role of HowToBuySaaS

What HTBS Does and Does Not Do

HTBS helps market participants discover and communicate around SaaS fundraising, investment and acquisition opportunities. The platform may review submissions for marketplace suitability, but such review is not a financial audit, legal opinion, investment recommendation or certification of a business.

HTBS may

  • Receive and review founder marketplace submissions.
  • Publish approved public or private marketplace listings.
  • Provide eligible investors and acquirers access to private opportunities.
  • Facilitate introductions between founders, investors and potential buyers.
  • Support communication, NDA, LOI and meeting workflows through the platform.
  • Ask participants for additional information as part of the marketplace process.

HTBS does not

  • Recommend that a user invest in, acquire or sell a specific business.
  • Provide individualized investment, securities or financial advice.
  • Act as a user's fiduciary, investment adviser, legal adviser, tax adviser, accountant or auditor.
  • Guarantee the accuracy or completeness of every statement submitted by marketplace participants.
  • Guarantee valuation, fundraising, investor interest, acquisition, returns or transaction completion.
  • Replace independent legal, financial, technical, security, tax or commercial due diligence.
Marketplace information

Listings and Deal Information Require Independent Verification

Information about companies, products, financial performance, ownership, customers, technology, pricing, valuation expectations and other transaction matters may be supplied by founders or other participants.

Founder-provided information

Founders and sellers are responsible for the information they provide and should keep material information accurate and current.

HTBS review has limits

Unless HTBS expressly states otherwise for a specific item, users should not assume that financial, technical, legal or commercial claims have been independently verified.

Confidential information

Access to confidential materials does not remove the recipient's responsibility to evaluate authenticity, completeness and relevance.

Third-party material

Documents, representations and external data supplied by users or third parties remain subject to independent verification.

Participant responsibilities

Founders and Investors Retain Their Own Responsibilities

HTBS can facilitate the process, but each participant remains responsible for the accuracy of information they provide and the decisions they make.

Founders and Sellers

Founders and sellers should ensure that information shared through HTBS is accurate and that they have authority to provide it.

  • Provide accurate and current material information.
  • Disclose material risks and limitations appropriately.
  • Use authorized financial, corporate and ownership information.
  • Comply with applicable contractual and legal requirements.
  • Engage qualified professional advisers where needed.

Investors and Acquirers

Investors and buyers should independently assess whether an opportunity is appropriate for their own objectives, experience and risk profile.

  • Verify financial and operational information independently.
  • Conduct legal, technical, security and commercial diligence.
  • Evaluate valuation and transaction structure independently.
  • Assess risks before signing agreements or transferring funds.
  • Consult qualified advisers when appropriate.
Transaction risk

Private SaaS Transactions Can Involve Material Risk

Private company investments and acquisitions can involve uncertainty, incomplete information, illiquidity, operational risk and the potential loss of capital. Past performance or historical metrics do not guarantee future results.

Business performance can change

Revenue, growth, margins, churn, customers and market conditions can deteriorate after information has been supplied.

Information may be incomplete

Marketplace materials may not contain every fact a reasonable investor, buyer or adviser would require.

Valuation is not guaranteed

Asking prices, valuation estimates, multiples and negotiation ranges do not establish the value at which a transaction will close.

Obtain appropriate professional advice before completing a transaction

Depending on the transaction, participants may need independent legal, tax, accounting, financial, technical, cybersecurity or other specialist advice. Tools, templates, marketplace workflows, NDA functionality, LOI functionality or communications provided through HTBS do not replace advice from a qualified professional acting for you.

Legal and regulatory responsibility

Participants Are Responsible for Applicable Legal and Regulatory Compliance

Fundraising, investment and acquisition transactions may be subject to different legal, securities, tax, corporate, contractual and regulatory requirements depending on the parties and jurisdictions involved. Each participant is responsible for determining which requirements apply to their transaction and for obtaining appropriate professional advice.

No legal opinion

HTBS does not determine whether a proposed investment, fundraising structure or acquisition complies with applicable law.

No tax determination

HTBS does not determine tax consequences for founders, investors, buyers, sellers or other participants.

No securities recommendation

Marketplace access or introduction to an opportunity should not be interpreted as a recommendation to purchase or sell a security.

Jurisdiction matters

Applicable requirements may differ depending on the location, status and structure of each participant and transaction.

Disclaimer FAQ

Common Questions About the HTBS Marketplace Role

Does HowToBuySaaS provide investment advice?

No. HTBS provides marketplace infrastructure and facilitates introductions. It does not provide individualized investment recommendations or make investment decisions for users.

Does HTBS approval mean a company has passed financial due diligence?

No. Marketplace approval should not be interpreted as an audit, certification or guarantee of the company's financial, legal, technical or commercial condition.

Does HTBS verify every claim made in a private listing?

No. Unless a particular item is expressly described as independently verified, participants should conduct their own verification and due diligence.

Does paying for marketplace access guarantee better deals?

No. A paid plan provides the applicable platform or marketplace access described by HTBS. It does not guarantee deal quality, investment returns, founder responsiveness, exclusivity or transaction completion.

Does HTBS guarantee that an investor will fund a founder?

No. HTBS may facilitate introductions and meetings, but investor interest, negotiation, funding and closing decisions remain with the participants.

Does HTBS guarantee that a SaaS business will be sold?

No. Marketplace participation and buyer introductions do not guarantee an acquisition, price, valuation, timetable or closing.

Are NDA or LOI tools provided by HTBS legal advice?

No. Platform workflows or document tools do not replace independent legal advice. Users should obtain appropriate legal review before relying on transaction documents.

Who makes the final investment or acquisition decision?

The participating investor, buyer, founder or seller makes their own decision. HTBS does not make that decision on their behalf.

Use HTBS to Facilitate Discovery and Communication. Make Transaction Decisions Independently.
