FAQs

Pre-revenue startups are valued using qualitative methods (Berkus, Scorecard) focusing on team, IP, and market. Post-revenue startups use revenue multiples (often 5–10× ARR for SaaS), comparable transactions, or VC method (target return × projected exit).

Pre-money valuation is the company's value before investment. Post-money = Pre-money + Investment amount. If your startup has a $4M pre-money valuation and raises $1M, the post-money is $5M, and investors own 20%.
