Assumptions and limits
- No distinction between contraction and churn — all cancellation counted as churn
This tool provides an educational estimate. Rules, rates and personal circumstances can change the answer. Review the assumptions before relying on a result. Report a correction.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using total revenue instead of recurring revenue — one-time payments inflate MRR.
- Ignoring contraction MRR (downgrades) — this is a separate category from churn.
- Not tracking cohort churn — headline churn can hide a worsening trend in newer cohorts.
Frequently asked questions
What is net revenue retention (NRR)?
NRR measures how much revenue you retain from existing customers plus expansion, expressed as a percentage. NRR > 100% means your existing customer base is growing without new customers. Best-in-class SaaS companies achieve 120-130% NRR.
What MRR growth rate is good?
T2D3 is the classic benchmark for B2B SaaS: triple ARR in year 2, then double for the next 3 years. In practical terms, 15-20% monthly growth is exceptional early stage; 5-10% month-over-month is healthy growth-stage.
