Description
unit-economics is an agent skill from Anthropic's financial-services collection, listed on skills.sh. It analyses the unit economics of a private equity target, covering ARR cohorts, LTV to CAC, net retention, payback periods, revenue quality and a margin waterfall. The first step is to identify the business model, because the metrics that matter depend on it. For SaaS and subscription businesses the focus is ARR, net retention and cohorts. For recurring services it is contract value, renewal rates and upsell. For transaction or usage-based revenue it is revenue per transaction, volume trends and take rate. A hybrid business is broken down by revenue stream. The second step computes the core metrics for the chosen model. The skill is for deal teams and due diligence work, where a target's revenue quality and the economics of each customer need to be checked before an investment decision.…
