ARR, churn, CAC, LTV, burn rate — your investors ask for them every quarter. Your board needs them every month. And you need them every day. Firehawk delivers board-ready SaaS and fintech metrics that are always current, always accurate, and never built in a spreadsheet again.
48 hours from connection to clarity. No lock-in. No contracts.
Integrations
Firehawk connects directly to your existing stack — no manual exports, no CSV uploads, no IT department required.

The Problem
Founders spend days every quarter compiling investor updates from Stripe exports, CRM data, and accounting files. By the time the board pack is ready, the data is already three weeks old. Worse — different team members are working from different numbers. Firehawk gives you one source of truth that updates daily.
Board Pack Built by Hand Every Quarter
ARR, MRR, churn, NRR — all pulled from different systems and reconciled manually. A founder or CFO spending two days per quarter on this is burning the most expensive resource in the company.
Churn Discovered After the Fact
You find out a customer churned when they stop paying. By then, the renewal window is closed. No early warning. No intervention. No data on which cohorts are most at risk.
CAC/LTV Never Current
Your CAC calculation includes last quarter's marketing spend. Your LTV estimate is based on an 18-month-old model. Your investors are asking questions you can't answer with confidence.
What Clients Say
These aren't early adopters — they're operators who tried spreadsheets, tried other tools, and chose Firehawk because it actually works.

“We were spending two full days every quarter pulling together the board pack. ARR from Stripe, CAC from HubSpot, burn from Xero — all manually reconciled. Firehawk automated the entire thing. Now the board pack takes thirty minutes and the data is always current.”

The Metrics
From ARR to NRR to CAC payback period — these are the metrics your Series A investors will demand and your board needs to run a confident strategic conversation.
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)
Annualised value of all active subscriptions. The foundational SaaS valuation metric — must be calculated consistently, not estimated from invoices.
Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)
Monthly subscription revenue, normalised. Tracked with an ARR bridge showing new MRR, expansion, contraction, and churn movements.
Net Revenue Retention (NRR)
Revenue retained from existing customers including expansion, minus churn and contraction. Benchmark: 100%+ is sustainable; 120%+ is world-class.
100%+ sustainable, 120%+ world-class
Gross Revenue Churn Rate
MRR lost from cancellations and downgrades as a percentage of total MRR. Benchmark: under 2% monthly for B2B SaaS.
Under 2% monthly target
Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)
Total sales and marketing spend divided by new customers acquired. Must be calculated by channel to identify your most efficient acquisition paths.
Customer Lifetime Value (LTV)
Expected total revenue per customer over their lifetime. Ratio of LTV:CAC is the core unit economics metric. Target: 3:1 minimum.
LTV:CAC target 3:1+
CAC Payback Period
Months required to recover acquisition cost from gross margin. Benchmark: under 12 months for capital-efficient B2B SaaS.
Under 12 months target
Burn Rate & Runway
Monthly cash consumption and months of remaining runway. Board-critical metric — must be calculated from actuals, not plan, and updated daily.
Gross Margin
Revenue minus COGS (hosting, support, infrastructure) as a percentage. Benchmark: 70–85% for software-only SaaS.
70–85% target for SaaS
ARR per FTE
ARR divided by full-time equivalent headcount. Capital efficiency benchmark — tracks how much revenue each employee generates.
Logo Churn Rate
Percentage of customers lost per period (count-based, not value-based). Reveals concentration risk and whether churn is concentrated in small or large accounts.
Expansion MRR Rate
Additional MRR from upsells and cross-sells within existing customer base. Healthy expansion rate reduces reliance on new logo acquisition for growth.
10–20% of new MRR from expansion
Pricing
Simple pricing for startups through to scale-ups — no enterprise pricing complexity, no 12-month lock-in.
