What buyers look at
Value depends on more than revenue.
Recurring revenue quality
MRR or ARR is more valuable when it is stable, diversified and backed by healthy customer retention.
Churn
High churn can make growth expensive because new sales must continually replace lost customers.
Customer concentration
One oversized customer can create a large renewal and transfer risk.
Founder and technical dependence
Code, infrastructure, support and product knowledge should be transferable beyond one person.
Questions
Before you value it
Is MRR the only thing that matters?
No. Profitability, churn, customer concentration, growth and owner workload can all affect buyer appetite.
What about a very small micro-SaaS?
A valuation can still be informative, but marketplace eligibility and buyer interest depend on the business's actual scale and history.
Is this for mobile apps?
Web/software subscription businesses belong here. Mobile-app businesses have a separate Application category.
