Why this site exists

Every other startup valuation calculator on Google is either on a VC's site, a cap-table platform's site, or an angel investor blog. None of them start from where founders actually start: "how much equity am I willing to give up?" That's the founder lens. This site uses it.

Sister to postmoneyvaluation.com (cap-table lens). Same verified facts — PitchBook + Carta benchmarks, YC SAFE terms, six valuation methods — different lens.

Built by Oliver Wakefield-Smith, founder of Digital Signet. No VC partnership, no affiliate revenue, no advice — consult counsel before signing.
