Does this require external software to run?

Yes, this skill requires Python 3.x installed on your local machine, as it executes Python scripts to perform deterministic calculations and generate formatted reports.

What financial models does this skill support?

It runs three models in parallel: Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) for intrinsic value, Revenue Multiples based on industry comps, and a SaaS Metrics Health Check for unit economics.

Do I need to provide all my financial data manually?

No. Claude can extract data from your existing workspace context or search for publicly available data. If specific data is missing, the skill computes partial models and flags the gaps.

Can it help determine if my company is 'Default Alive'?

Yes, by analyzing your monthly burn rate, cash on hand, and revenue growth, the skill provides a capital efficiency commentary and determines your current 'default alive' or 'default dead' status.

Executes deterministic financial models for startup valuation, SaaS health analysis, and runway projections directly within Claude Code.

This specialized skill transforms Claude into a quantitative venture capital analyst, capable of running three parallel valuation methodologies: DCF Intrinsic Value, Revenue Multiples, and SaaS Metrics Health Checks. By combining Claude's data extraction capabilities with Python-driven calculations, it provides founders and investors with detailed insights into LTV/CAC ratios, burn rates, runway, and capital efficiency. Whether you need to model ARR growth, conduct a comps analysis, or determine if a company is 'default alive,' this tool delivers synthesized financial reports with defensible valuation ranges and stage-appropriate benchmark comparisons.
