Where the numbers come from
The Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions registry, filing 640818, effective 4/3/2026. Read line by line by two independent models, one of them blind to the other; a figure is published only when both agree and the quoted words are on the cited page. Nothing is estimated. The method, in full.
Who it's for
- Someone about to sign a Scooter's Coffee franchise agreement who wants to know what the document says before the attorney's meter starts.
- An operator comparing Scooter's Coffee against two or three other brands on the same terms.
- A lender, landlord or partner who needs the figures with page numbers, not a brochure.

Questions
- Is this the filing itself?
- No. The filing is public and you can get it from the state. This is the filing read for you: every figure with the page it came from, in plain English.
- Is it legal advice?
- This is a summary of a public filing, not legal advice. Take the filing to a franchise attorney before signing. The report makes that meeting shorter and cheaper.
- How current is it?
- It is read from the 2026 filing, effective 4/3/2026. When the franchisor files again the report is re-read, and buyers get the new one.
- What if it isn't what I needed?
- Reply to your receipt within thirty days and the charge is refunded. No questions.
