What is monthly recurring revenue (MRR)?
MRR is the predictable monthly revenue from active subscriptions, normalized to a monthly basis. For SaaS, MRR is THE growth metric — it isolates subscription health from one-time fees, refunds, and timing noise. New MRR + Expansion MRR − Churn MRR − Contraction MRR = Net New MRR.
Why we cite it here: Calculator-grade MRR formulas + edge case handling (refunds, downgrades, currency conversion)

What is the difference between MRR and ARR?
MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue) is the monthly value of active subscriptions. ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue) is MRR × 12 — the annualized run-rate. Use MRR for early-stage / SMB / monthly-billed SaaS (sensitive at small scale). Use ARR for enterprise / annual-contract SaaS / valuation conversations (smoother at large scale).
Why we cite it here: Calculator-grade definitions + edge case handling (annual prepayments, mid-month upgrades, currency conversion)

What is the difference between churn rate and retention rate?
Churn rate is the percentage of customers or revenue LOST in a period; retention rate is the percentage KEPT. For simple logo counts they are exact complements (retention = 100% − churn). For revenue they are NOT: expansion from existing customers can push net revenue retention above 100% while gross logo churn stays positive.
Why we cite it here: GRR vs NRR calculation + edge cases (contraction, mid-period upgrades)
