We know that it’s tough to think through the impact of raising additional finance. But, it's a great thought exercise so we’ve created this dilution calculator to make the decision more tangible for you. The tool will help you visualize the impact on you and your co-founders’ respective stakes as and when you raise further funding. The tool is for visualisation purposes only - it's obviously in no way legally binding!

STEP 1

HackFwd Round

Implied value of your
start-up after
investment =

Specify number of founders.

1 Founder 2 Founders 3 Founders

HackFwd takes 27% equity in exchange for our investment and all of the additional support. We also reserve 3% equity to reward those third party advisors who have supported you through the process (called reserved shares below - for simplicity we have assumed these have already been distributed to the advisors).

STEP X (Future Funding)

Series A Valuation

Implied value of your
start-up after
investment =

Funding amount

Valuation (pre-money i.e. this is the value of your company before it has raised the additional finance)

If you need help with deciding on the funding amount, maybe a search on CrunchBase for your favorite successful startup can help.
