Can I get a business valuation from ChatGPT (or any AI tool)?

The answer is… yes and no.

Yes — you can insert your company’s financial statements and ask AI to calculate a valuation. You’ll probably even get a clean-looking number, maybe with a DCF model attached.

But the thing is — unless you know what to input, the result won’t be realistic.

AI will happily crunch whatever you feed it.
If your inputs are incomplete or misunderstood, the valuation will look nice but won’t mean much.

Business valuation is not just math — it’s also judgment.
You need to know:

  • Which revenue streams are sustainable.
  • What expenses are one-off.
  • Whether the owner’s compensation should be adjusted.
  • How to forecast future risks.

AI can’t do due diligence.
It may not ask questions like:

“Why did your margin suddenly drop this year?”
“Is this business seasonal?”

It can tell you the steps, but it can’t verify your answers.

So yes, you can ask ChatGPT to do a valuation — but to get it right, you still need someone who understands the numbers and the story behind them.

(By the way, this post was written by ChatGPT — with some help from a human who actually does valuation 😄)
