GTM Calculators

Browser-native. No data leaves your browser.

4 calculators covering the core GTM economics metrics: CAC payback period (with NRR-adjusted variant), corrected LTV:CAC using sBG adjustment, Rule of 40 and Rule of X side-by-side, and a motion selector that maps ACV + buyer type + time-to-value to PLG / Hybrid / Sales-led. All computation runs client-side — nothing is sent to any server.
