Investor-Defensible Valuation for Startups
and Scale-ups
Build a structured valuation journey using multiple methods, market comparables, assumptions, and weighted scenarios, all with a clear audit trail.
Move from guesswork to a defensible company valuation
Norriva Valuation helps startups and scale-ups create a structured valuation journey based on the same logic investors use to triangulate company value. Instead of relying on one method, teams can apply multiple valuation approaches, compare outcomes, and create a weighted blended result that is transparent, explainable, and investor-ready.
- Use multiple valuation methods: Run 2–4 methods based on your company stage and available data.
- Create a blended valuation: Combine results into a weighted valuation range with clear assumptions.
- Build investor confidence: Show inputs, formulas, notes, and reasoning behind every valuation step.
Choose the right valuation methods for your stage
Valuation is not one-size-fits-all. A pre-revenue startup should not be valued the same way as a growing SaaS company with ARR, retention, and revenue momentum. Norriva recommends relevant methods based on company stage, from pre-revenue to early revenue to growth, helping teams build a valuation that reflects their actual maturity.
- Pre-Revenue: Use qualitative, milestone, scorecard, and future potential methods.
- Early Revenue: Combine ARR, traction, market, and comparable-based methods.
- Growth: Apply revenue multiples, growth assumptions, efficiency metrics, and scenario-based outcomes.
