How this calculator works
Burn multiple = net burn ÷ net new ARR over the same period. Runway = cash ÷ monthly net burn. A widely used rule of thumb: under 1 is excellent, 1–1.5 great, 1.5–2 good, 2–3 worrying, above 3 bad.
Frequently asked questions
Why do investors look at burn multiple?
It captures growth and spending in one number, so it shows whether growth is being bought too expensively — especially when funding is harder to raise.
How much runway should a startup keep?
Many founders aim for 18–24 months after a raise, because fundraising often takes six months or more.
