Capital to revenue Ships in wave 2

Every dollar of capital is revenue with a date on it.

Beacon runs one loop from the round to the revenue it buys — how much you need, the month your numbers price best, what it costs you in ownership, and the target it has to reach.

Capital · pricing the round. $30M to reach $52.0M of ARR — and with 22 months of runway behind you, the month is a choice, not a deadline.
The loop every round runs — and the reason the next one prices better.
Where rounds go wrong

Three answers to the same question. None of them agree.

The ownership model
How much to sell and at what price — worked out in a spreadsheet, the week before you go out.
Never says
What the money is supposed to buy, or by when.
The cash model
Cash out the door — $520k a month, 22 months of runway left.
The catch
The month the cash ends is not the month your numbers price best.
The growth plan
The target: $52.0M of ARR by 31 Dec 2027, quarter by quarter.
Never sees
It assumes the money that funds it already arrived.
Three tools, three stories.Nothing joins the capital to the revenue it buys — one loop closes all three.
The loop

From a wire in the bank to revenue on the board.

One round, priced on numbers you already have. Beacon walks it end to end before you go out — and tracks it after, against the sealed plan it was meant to fund.

The charts

Put $30M in. Watch every chart already know.

The shaded wedge is the revenue the round has to buy — how much, and which months it lands in. Switch to the cash and the same round tells you which month to go in.

What prices it

The round is priced on numbers you already have.

Nobody assembles these for the round. They are live the whole time, defined once, and they read the same in the board pack, the data room and the forecast.

Growth

ARR and its rate

$34.0M today, and the monthly rate that has to get to $52.0M.

Retention

net revenue retention

108% — how much of next year’s revenue you already own before selling anything.

Efficiency

payback on a customer

How long a customer takes to pay back what it cost to win, by segment.

Cash

burn and runway

$520k a month, 22 months. The line that decides when you go, not whether.

Capacity

the seats the plan needs

22 seats the target is short, each one priced with its ramp.

Confidence

what the number rests on

91% on the forecast, with whatever is holding it down named rather than smoothed.

Every one of them sealed, sourced and dated — which is why diligence asks for a file instead of a quarter of your time.

What the loop tells you

The whole round, in three numbers.

Run the loop against the target you sealed, and the round stops being a negotiation you prepare for and starts being a number you already hold.

Fund

Capital need

$30M

What reaching the target actually costs — read off the plan, not off a spreadsheet somebody builds in the autumn.

Buy

The revenue it buys

$18.0M

New recurring revenue between today’s $34.0M and the $52.0M target. The round has to buy all of it.

Keep

Ownership retained

~86%

$30M at about $220M post — roughly 14% away, and the timing is most of what moves that number.

Illustrative · cash and headline dilution, not a cap table.

The green light

No round ahead of the numbers. No plan ahead of the capital.

The same green light that seals a plan runs for the round itself — priced, timed and checked before you go out. Or it waits, and you know exactly why.

Beacon prices it, checks it and prepares it. It never contacts a firm, never negotiates and never signs — a person decides.
