Startup Score is an internal metric that aggregates quantitative signals—such as monthly cash burn, employee count change, and user acquisition rate—into a single rating. It helps founders track progress and spot early warning signs without external benchmarking.

A practical example of startup score
For example, a SaaS startup records a cash burn of $30k/month, adds five engineers, and gains 2,000 new users each month, resulting in a Startup Score of 78.
