An AI agent for every stage of franchise development

Not one tool. An orchestrated swarm of specialized agents that pass data between phases, turning your business into a franchise system.

Phase 01

Knowledge Extraction

Conversational voice interviews while you work. Vision AI observes your operations. Your entire business becomes structured data.

Interviewer Agent
Phase 02

Legal & Compliance

Auto-populates a state-compliant FDD schema. Drafts territory rules, royalty structures, and IP filings. Attorney reviews in 3 hours, not 40.

FDD Compiler Agent
Phase 03

Operations Manual

Translates your knowledge graph into a living, AI-native operations database. Franchisees query it instantly instead of flipping through binders.

Scribe Agent
Phase 04

Franchisee Recruitment

Generates franchise opportunity pages, ROI calculators, and pitch decks. Voice AI qualifies prospects and books calls within 30 seconds.

Voice SDR Agent
Phase 05

Site Selection

Analyzes foot traffic and demographics to pinpoint locations that mirror your flagship's success profile. Better than any broker's intuition.

Geo-Spatial Agent
Phase 06

Launch & Scale

Manages construction timelines, automated procurement, staff hiring, and hyper-local grand opening campaigns. From signed lease to open doors.

Project Manager Agent

We win when you win. That's the whole model.

Traditional franchise consultants charge $500K upfront whether your franchise succeeds or fails. We charge $10K to get started, then take a 1% royalty on franchisee sales.

Our incentive is to make your franchise as successful as possible. More locations, better unit economics, stronger brand. We're not selling software. We're building the infrastructure for the largest franchise holding company in the world.

1% royalty on sales

We succeed only when your franchisees succeed

Every successful local business deserves a shot at becoming a franchise

There are 30 million small businesses in America. Only 3,000 franchise brands. The gap isn't talent or market demand. It's that franchise development was designed for corporations with half a million to spend. FoundryHQ exists to change that equation.
