How to Use This Tool
Enter your current ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue) and monthly growth rate. The calculator projects your ARR over time and shows when you'll hit key revenue milestones that unlock different fundraising stages.
ARR Growth
Future ARR = Current ARR × (1 + Monthly Growth Rate)^Months
Compound growth is powerful. At 15% month-over-month growth, $100,000 ARR becomes $1,000,000 in about 17 months. At 10% MoM, it takes 25 months. Small differences in growth rate create enormous differences in outcomes.
Why This Matters
ARR growth rate is the single most important metric VCs look at for SaaS companies. It determines your valuation, your ability to raise, and whether your company is on a trajectory to become venture-scale. The difference between 10% and 20% monthly growth isn't 2x — it's the difference between a modest business and a unicorn.
