Alaris Acquisitions, a sell-side mergers-and-acquisition consulting firm, has launched an online buyer portal through which acquirers can present their firm to potential sellers through distinct profiles, videos and interactive insights.

The new portal is powered by Alaris’ artificial intelligence-driven platform and aims to creating a more transparent and efficient M&A experience for RIAs.

Alaris Acquisition CEO Allen Darby said in a statement that the portal removes guesswork for sellers and introduces a more transparent window into who buyers truly are.

“The buyer portal gives firms a way to market themselves in a public, accessible space that’s never existed before in wealth management M&A,” Darby said. “For buyers, it’s an opportunity to stand out on the strength of their culture, integration philosophy and long-term vision.”

In practice, the buyer portal aims to help sellers and acquirers eliminate repeated one-off conversations. Buyers receive feedback and insights on seller activity and interest, while sellers gain a transparent view into buyer models, strategies and cultural fit.

As more buyers engage with the portal, the profiles evolve into richer, more compelling representations of each firm, Darby said.

"Working with Alaris was like being part of a team. their industry knowledge and experience was extremely valuable and the level of professionalism they provided was crucial throughout the entire process."
William Blanton, Owner, Acquired by Composition Wealth
"Alaris was amazing! Not only did they help me find the right fit (or firm?), but they made the transition much smoother than it would've been on my own. And I believe the overall outcome was much better than it would've been without them."
William Rosenthal, Owner, Acquired by Beacon Pointe
"Alaris was a great partner with us in the M&A process. We felt better educated, guided and ultimately able to identify who was a great fit for us as a result of their process."
Dean Barber, Owner, Acquired by Modern Wealth Management
"Working with Alaris gave us a great sense of confidence through the entire journey and their knowledge of the buyer universe accelerated the process. They are organized, transparent, and frankly, just a great team to work with. We were very happy with them and received a much higher valuation than we would have on our own."
John Horseman, Owner, Acquired by Allworth
"I first met Allen and Alaris during the summer of 2021. By the end of the year, my life had changed as they were an integral part in helping me make the next transition in my business career by selling/merging with a bigger company. Their communication and recommendations along the way were priceless, and being that this was the biggest career move of my life, they did a wonderful job at making me feel the very comfortable during the process."
Marc Wolff, Owner, Acquired by Beacon Pointe
"Alaris stands out amongst its peers. We appreciate the fact that they took a substantial amount of time to understand our firm and culture - no other M&A advisor has ever done that. The seller economics will always be important and while Alaris seeks to maximize that part of the seller outcome, it's never at the expense of cultural fit."
Glenn Spencer, CEO, Prime Capital Financial
"At Beacon Pointe, culture is everything. We know when Alaris brings us a prospective partner they have gone through a robust process, are well educated, and have a high probability of being a fit for our family. It's a refreshing model for our industry."
Matt Cooper, President, Beacon Pointe Advisors
"We love working with Alaris because they understand our model and culture. When they bring us a prospective partner, we have extreme confidence that it's a great fit for both parties. They truly care about the outcome for the buyer and the seller equally."
