The document discusses metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs) for fundraising and reporting for venture capital funds and the startups they invest in. It provides examples of KPIs used at different stages of a startup, from pre-product launch to scaling sales. These include metrics like customer engagement, annual contract value (ACV), churn rate, customer acquisition cost (CAC), lifetime value (LTV), sales cycles, and monthly recurring revenue (MRR) growth. It also discusses balancing unit economics between customer growth, cash burn, and recovering the costs of customer acquisition. The document emphasizes trends over snapshots and that KPI benchmarks can change as a startup adds larger customers.
