ARR is not only MRR × 12 here. Projected ARR and Growth ARR show how current month MRR changes annualized revenue.
How this calculator works
This arr calculator is designed for SaaS, subscription, and recurring-revenue businesses. Enter your current operating numbers to get a fast directional result.
ARR = ending MRR × 12
Keep the reporting period consistent. Monthly metrics should use monthly revenue, monthly churn, and monthly acquisition counts.
How to use it
- Use clean finance or analytics data from the same period.
- Exclude one-time revenue when calculating recurring revenue metrics.
- Compare the result against prior months to see trend direction, not just one snapshot.
Result interpretation
ARR is a run-rate metric. It is useful for planning, but it should be read together with churn, expansion, and actual cash collection.
ARR growth interpretation
Projected ARR / Growth ARR added: Use current MRR × 12 as baseline ARR, then compare projected ARR after growth. The difference is Growth ARR, which helps separate current recurring revenue from forward-looking expansion.
