Revenue run rate is one of the simplest yet most misunderstood growth metrics in business. It tells you: "If your current revenue trend continues, what will you make in a year?"
The formula is dead simple: Annual Run Rate = Monthly Revenue × 12
But the problem is consistency. Founders confuse monthly vs quarterly data, forget to adjust for seasonal spikes, and manually recalculating every month wastes hours.

I built a Revenue Run Rate Calculator that handles all the complexity:
