**For Operating Partners:** This model is calibrated for PE hold periods. Every output maps to your value creation plan — not SaaS marketing metrics.

## Why this model is different

### Built for PE. Not SaaS Marketers.

#### PE language throughout

EBITDA, basis points, multiple expansion, hold-period IRR — the language your IC memo uses.

#### Multiple expansion modeling

No other calculator quantifies the EV impact of margin improvement on your exit multiple. We do.

#### Confidence ranges, not single points

Conservative (P25), base case (P50), and optimistic (P75) outputs. PE professionals distrust single-point estimates.

#### IC memo-ready PDF

Output format designed for how PE firms actually make decisions. Share it, present it, attach it.
