So basically valuations are based on how much traction the site is having.. right?
Matt Dibb
@thunayan the valuations are based on financial inputs for the most part. We have basically simplified really long and complicated valuation metrics (which are usually in huge excel spreadsheets) and simplified this by coding it into a streamlined process. We also take the rank of your website (if any) as an extra datapoint of traffic.

@matt_dibb I apologize for this next question... can I valuate other websites? (not my own)
Matt Dibb
@thunayan the app is not specifically for valuing websites. It is for valuing any startup concept or business in the same way that a VC would. In fact, it doesn't even need to be a business that generates its revenue online. If you are a startup (doing anything) and wondering what a VC or Angel will value you at - startupvalue.io will give you a comprehensive analysis of what and why.

@bentossell, are you planning to valuate the site!!

it seems like an interesting idea; but this is not useful for seed stage startups. I typed in the details of a company that I previously advised (who hadn't built any product or got any revenue or anything), at the seed stage and said I wanted to raise $1m. It suggested a valuation of $165m post-money...
Matt Dibb
@_jacksmith by that methodology the total addressable market and annualised revenue that you entered would have been huge. The end valuation would be affected by this assumption.
Jack Smith
@matt_dibb I entered the current annualized revneue as zero. a seed stage startup with no product/revenue shouldn't be worth $165 million regardless how huge the market size is imho...
Matt Dibb
@_jacksmith check your average revenue per user per annum. Your input would have been a huge TAM with a large revenue per annum (or vice versa). As you said though, this isn't exactly for seed staged capital rounds.

@matt_dibb I was using coin as an example. So put $50 as the arpu

Its a superb idea, but it limits people to value startup ideas as it asks for the website of the startup being valued. Idea stage startups wont have a website, but this tool will be invaluable for them to validate their pricing assumptions.

@jaymanpandya I have everything for my site but content😞!! IT'S LIKE I drew a Hugh blank!! 3months now

The site and process are beautiful and well design. I actually used it for my company, I'm wondering how accurate this evaluation?
Matt Dibb
@rotemthegolfer the valuation is based on the same methodology that 'funding firms' will use when trying to value your company. We analysed the investment criteria from some of the largest VC firms globally and averaged out the data based on your industry. Depending on the valuation you chose (VC, DCF or CFME) it will give you a net present value using the exact same investment process as would be used in funding rounds. The accuracy is dependent on your input, however we have made it as seamless as possible with validation of your input to ensure there are no significant outliers that could cause a substantial inaccurate value in the end result.

Seems like an interesting idea, but the form is broken when viewing it from the iPhone safari browser 😏
Matt Dibb
@bloyd damn. We tested it quite a few times. Thank for the heads up
