FAQ
Why is the calculator the only way into the paid reports?
Premium and Annual are built on top of your specific vertical and submission. The free 4-minute calculator captures the inputs we need (vertical, ARR band, NRR, gross margin, etc.) and gives you the free PDF. After that, upgrading to Premium or Annual takes one click and we already know your context — no re-typing.
What is the Quarterly Report?
A $99 cross-vertical state-of-vertical-SaaS report covering every vertical we track, with cohort movement (who moved p25→p75 and how) and named operator anchors per metric. The H2 2026 issue is being built now; Annual Subscribers ($199/yr) get every quarterly issue included.
Founders Pack — what do I actually get for $499?
