What is a business feasibility analysis?
A business feasibility analysis tests whether a proposed business can be viable before you invest. For a shop, restaurant, clinic or any business with a front door, it comes down to three questions: is there enough demand (market feasibility), can this site support it (location feasibility) and do the numbers work at your planned size (financial feasibility). Bifyo's feasibility analysis software answers all three for one address and rolls them into a single Feasibility Score from 0 to 100.
Three layers of feasibility, one report
Market feasibility analysis
Demand in your radius (residents, households, income, nearby anchors), competitor count and quality, growth, and market sizing from TAM to SAM to SOM for your category.
Location feasibility analysis
Transit and parking access, street-level frontage and visibility, natural hazard risk, local rent from current listings, and a check that you are not cannibalizing your own sites.
Financial feasibility analysis
A 12-month customer and revenue projection for your budget and capacity, category cost structure, staffing, net profit, break-even month and stress tests.
How the Feasibility Score is built
One number, with every part visible. Default weights below; you can switch to a growth-focused or risk-averse profile.
| Component | Weight | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| Location & demand | 50% | The Opportunity Score: demand, competition, growth, accessibility, business density and market fit at this address. |
| Financial health | 25% | Projected profit margin after rent, labor, cost of goods and other operating costs. |
| Stress-test resilience | 10% | How many "what if" scenarios stay profitable: customers -20%, rent +30%, average ticket -10%, labor +25%. |
| Competitive edge | 15% | Gaps in nearby competitors' real reviews you could win on (once the competitor-gap analysis is run). |
The score is shown with a likely range, not as a single certain number - and a high score measures the location and the plan, not how well the business will be run.

How to do a feasibility analysis for a new location
The steps a consultant would follow - and what Bifyo does for each.
Define the concept and the plan
Business type, budget and size (seats, rooms, chairs). Feasibility is always for a specific plan, not a category in general.
Size the market around the site
How many potential customers live, work or pass within reach, and how much they spend on this category.
Map the competition
Who already serves that demand, how well, and what their customers complain about.
Price the location
Rent for a space of your size, plus access, visibility and hazard risk.
Project revenue and costs
Month-by-month customers and revenue, then rent, staff and cost of goods.
Find break-even and stress-test it
When cumulative profit turns positive, and whether it survives a bad year.
Decide, or compare alternatives
Run the same analysis on other candidate sites and compare like for like.
Feasibility analysis software vs. a consultant's feasibility study
| Consultant study | Bifyo | |
|---|---|---|
| Turnaround | Typically weeks | Minutes |
| Cost | Usually quoted per project | $49 per report, or a plan |
| Comparing several sites | Each site adds cost and time | Same frame for every site |
| Interviews, site visits, legal & zoning | Can be included | Not included - do these on your shortlist |
| Transparency | Varies | Every figure sourced or labelled as an estimate |
Many owners use Bifyo to screen and shortlist, then bring the numbers to their accountant, broker or consultant for the final site.
Frequently asked questions
What is a business feasibility analysis?
A business feasibility analysis tests whether a proposed business can be viable before you commit money to it. For a physical business it answers three questions: is there enough demand (market feasibility), can this particular site support it (location feasibility), and do the numbers work at your planned size (financial feasibility). Bifyo answers all three for the address and plan you enter.
What should a feasibility report for a new business include?
At minimum: the target market and its size, the competition, the location's accessibility and risks, realistic revenue for your capacity, the cost structure (rent, staff, cost of goods), profit and break-even, and how sensitive the result is to things going worse than planned. A Bifyo report covers each of these and labels every figure as REAL (with its source) or as an estimate.
What is the difference between market feasibility and financial feasibility?
Market feasibility asks whether enough customers exist and are under-served - demand, competition and growth. Financial feasibility asks whether serving them at this site makes money - revenue against rent, labor and other costs, and when you break even. A location can pass one and fail the other, which is why the Feasibility Score blends both.
How long does a feasibility analysis take with Bifyo?
Minutes. The scores, competitors and demographics are ready within a minute or two; local rent and price research finishes in the background shortly after and fills in on the same report.
How much does a business feasibility report cost?
A single full report is $49, paid once, with no subscription. If you are comparing many locations, packs bring the price per report down: 5 for $199, 20 for $690, 50 for $1,490. See pricing.
Can I use the report for a bank loan or investors?
Yes. Reports export as print-ready PDFs and have a share link that opens without an account. Every figure is sourced or labelled as an estimate and the projection math is shown, so a lender can check it. It does not replace legal, zoning or lease due diligence.
Is a feasibility analysis the same as a business plan?
No. A feasibility analysis comes first and asks whether the idea can work at a location; a business plan describes how you will run it once you have decided. The feasibility numbers - market size, revenue scenarios, costs, break-even - usually become the financial section of the plan.
