Every engine a buy-side analyst would run. Running at once.
Every VA Range is blended from 40+ sector-specific engines — DCF, comparable companies, precedent transactions, asset floor, scenario, Monte Carlo, plus Biotech SOTP, MedTech Market Model and proprietary algorithms — calibrated across 1,024 NAICS industry groups. Each output traced to its inputs and sources. No black box. No unsourced AI output.
See the engine suite run, end-to-end.
From financial upload to a defensible VA Range — every engine surfacing its inputs, every source visible, every assumption challengeable.
10+ engines. 210 industries. One blended range.
A single number is a guess. A range, blended across 10+ methods (including sector-specific models like Biotech SOTP and MedTech Market Model, plus proprietary algorithms) with confidence weights, is a position you can defend. Every engine shows its sources.
Discounted Cash Flow
Three-statement build, WACC from risk-free + equity risk premium + industry beta. Terminal value via exit multiple AND Gordon growth — cross-checked.
Comparable Companies
Peer set screened by NAICS, geography, size and growth. Multiples normalized, outliers trimmed, EV bridged to equity.
Precedent Transactions
Closed private-market deals filtered to the subject profile, with control premium and time decay corrections.
Asset-Based Floor
Adjusted book value with hard-asset revaluation. Establishes the downside floor below which the business cannot rationally trade.
Scenario Analysis
Bear, base, bull trajectories with explicit assumption deltas — the backbone of every VA Range confidence band.
Monte Carlo Simulation
10,000+ paths over the assumption space. Outputs a probability distribution, not a wish. Confidence bands follow this.
Additional engines in development
Operator multiples, ESOP-aware valuations, sector-specialized models. Shipped on release cadence.
A valuation is a range. Not a number.
The VA Range is the signature output — a named, confidence-scored, timestamp-sealed band that lives on every certificate, every terminal query, and every VARI print. Bear, base, and bull in one glance.
- 80% confidence band — calibrated against 12,000+ closed SMB transactions
- Every assumption deltable — change WACC, exit multiple, growth rate; the band re-renders instantly
- Full audit trail — every number traces back to its source, engine, and timestamp
