Revenue Compass

A no-code tool I built initially for myself, aimed at assessing early-stage startup revenue potential. Sharing here because I've noticed many founders and investors often rely on intuition rather than data when evaluating if a startup can realistically reach ₹1 crore ARR within 12-18 months. This tool introduces an objective, systematic framework to quickly validate business ideas or determine when it’s time to pivot. The audit covers seven essential areas crucial for revenue success: founder-market fit, product-market fit indicators, customer acquisition efficiency, retention patterns, growth playbooks, scalability indicators, and critical red flags. These metrics are weighted based on proven correlations with early-stage revenue milestones, derived from patterns observed in successful startups. Key Features: 1. Scores startups against validated revenue indicators. 2. Highlights specific growth-blocking gaps. 3. Provides clear, actionable next steps. 4. Flags critical issues. 5. Generates instant results in just 15 minutes. Why I built it: I grew frustrated with subjective startup evaluations and overly optimistic projections. I wanted objective, data-driven criteria to reliably assess genuine revenue potential early in a startup's life cycle. Who benefits: * Founders validating new ideas or products. * Investors assessing early-stage opportunities. * Entrepreneurs seeking data-backed validation for strategic decisions. The tool is entirely free, as I believe validation should be accessible to everyone. We don't store any audit data, so feel free to assess multiple ideas securely. Eliminate guesswork in your early-stage revenue assessments and make smarter, data-driven decisions on product launches, pivots, and resource allocations. Happy building!
