How We Measure

Last updated: April 2026

IRR (Internal Rate of Return)

Calculated using the Newton-Raphson method with multiple starting points for convergence stability. Cash flows are built from your capital call and distribution records. For active deals, the current investment amount is used as residual value. Exited deals use zero residual unless you provide an override.

MOIC, DPI, and TVPI

Multiple on Invested Capital (MOIC) is calculated as (distributions + residual value) / invested capital. DPI (Distributions to Paid-In) excludes residual value. TVPI (Total Value to Paid-In) includes it. All three update automatically as you record transactions.

Monte Carlo simulations

Scenario analysis runs 1,000 paths by default. Exit multiples and hold periods are sampled from normal distributions with configurable standard deviations. Results are clamped to reasonable ranges (MOIC 0.05-20x, hold period 0.25-30 years) to prevent outlier distortion.

AI deal scoring

Scores range from 0-100 and evaluate four weighted factors: sponsor track record (25%), market viability (20%), fund structure (25%), and target returns (30%). Scores are generated by Claude and should be used as one input alongside your own due diligence, not as investment advice.
