FAQ

How is LTV calculated?

LTV = (ARPU × gross margin) ÷ monthly churn rate. It assumes steady-state churn and excludes expansion revenue.

Does this account for expansion revenue?

No — this is the standard simple LTV. Account-expansion-adjusted LTV is higher and best modelled in a dedicated cohort spreadsheet.
