Got pissed off with too many ARR manipulations and AI startups announcing revenue numbers manipulations(best day * 365 as ARR etc). These startups are not only messing up the AI ecosystem with the non standard numbers, they are also messing up the SaaS ecosystem by co opting the SaaS metrics. Now SaaS startups are supposed to show the same scale though the AI startups have also not achieved that scale. So here is what I propose, the AI startups should use their own new vocabulary. Since everyone is vibe coding, I suggest VRR, Vibe Revenue Run-rate :)
I have even provided a formula(all scientific and all) and also provided a checklist for the VCs.
