Question 1

How does Evaldam calculate startup valuation?

Accepted Answer

Evaldam uses a blended methodology across Scorecard, Berkus, Venture Capital Method, DCF with Long-Term Growth, DCF with Exit Multiples, and Evaldam Score. The weighting depends on stage and data quality, so pre-revenue companies lean more on qualitative methods while revenue-stage companies use more financial modeling.

Question 2

Why should the valuation stay the same when I run it again?

Accepted Answer

For paid reports, the same saved startup inputs, assumptions, methodology version, and market-data snapshot should reuse the existing valuation. A new valuation version is created when material business data, assumptions, or methodology changes.

Question 3

Is Evaldam a certified appraisal or investment advice?

Accepted Answer

No. Evaldam is a decision-support and fundraising-preparation tool. It helps founders and advisors structure a valuation conversation, but it is not a certified appraisal, legal opinion, investment advice, or guarantee of funding terms.

Question 4

What is the difference between a valuation range and a single valuation number?

Accepted Answer

A range is more credible for early-stage startups because assumptions are uncertain. Evaldam gives low, mid, and high estimates so investors can see the conservative case, base case, and upside case.

Question 5

What does the free website valuation include?

Accepted Answer

The free website valuation is a quick preview based on public website signals and limited methods. It is useful for a starting range, but it does not replace the full paid report with saved assumptions, six methods, scenarios, and PDF output.

Question 6

What does the GitHub repo valuation mean?

Accepted Answer

The GitHub repo valuation estimates the startup opportunity if a public repo became a company. It values execution quality, idea clarity, traction signals, monetization potential, investor risks, and comparable startup patterns, not the repo as a sellable asset.

Question 7

Why do you ask for email and phone on the free tool?

Accepted Answer

The free tool is also a lead workflow. Contact details let Evaldam deliver results, prevent abuse, and follow up with founders who may need a full report before fundraising.

Question 8

Why would a founder pay for Evaldam instead of asking ChatGPT?

Accepted Answer

A chatbot can produce a one-off opinion. Evaldam provides a repeatable valuation workflow with saved inputs, method weights, assumptions, comparables, sensitivity analysis, report history, and investor-ready PDF output.

Question 9

What is included in the full paid report?

Accepted Answer

Paid reports include six valuation methods, blended low/mid/high range, executive summary, assumptions trail, method breakdown, sensitivity analysis, comparables, review workflow, and investor-ready PDF/report output.

Question 10

Can I edit inputs and generate a new valuation version?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Edit the startup profile, financials, assumptions, or market context, then generate a new valuation. If nothing material changed, Evaldam reuses the existing result to preserve trust.

Question 11

Who is Evaldam best for?

Accepted Answer

Evaldam is best for founders preparing for angel, seed, or venture conversations, plus advisors and consultants who need repeatable valuation reports for multiple startup clients.

Question 12

How many startups can I create per month?

Accepted Answer

Your monthly startup quota depends on your plan: Free includes 1 startup profile, Founder/Pro includes 3, Advisor/Plus includes 15, and Enterprise can be configured for higher volume.
