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.
