About the Recurring Revenue Valuation Simulator
Model ARR growth at a revenue multiple to see how a recurring-revenue business’s valuation climbs over the years.
It's built for directional planning: change any assumption and watch the whole projection move, the way a seasoned operator pressure-tests a plan before committing capital. Everything is computed live in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere.
How the Recurring Revenue Valuation Simulator Works
The model takes 4 assumptions and returns 3 headline metrics plus a full breakdown. Here is exactly what goes in and what comes out — no black box.
The Inputs
| Assumption | Example value |
|---|---|
| Current ARR | $2,000,000 |
| Annual growth | 60% |
| Revenue multiple | 8 |
| Years | 3 |
Worked Example
Every figure below is produced by the live model using the example assumptions above. Change any input in the simulator to see your own numbers.

The Operator's Read
Valuation is ARR times a multiple — and the multiple itself rises with growth and retention. That double compounding is why a few points of growth swing enterprise value by millions. Educational only.
Assumptions & Limitations
- •The model is deterministic: it projects your inputs forward with clear arithmetic, not a Monte-Carlo or probabilistic forecast. It shows one scenario at a time — run several to bracket a range.
- •Defaults are illustrative benchmarks, not your business. Replace every field with your real numbers before drawing conclusions.
- •It abstracts away taxes, financing, seasonality, and one-off events unless a field explicitly captures them. Treat the output as a directional estimate.
- •This is an educational tool, not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Validate real decisions with a qualified professional.
