Valtech Launches Free Startup Valuation Planning Tools in its Mobile App

Published

on

By

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia and SINGAPORE, May 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Valtech, an international innovator in valuation technology, has rolled out a major update to its mobile app, introducing an expanded suite of valuation tools tailored for startups. This significant release underscores Valtech’s commitment to supporting early-stage companies in navigating the fundraising process with clarity and confidence. The update includes two powerful additions: Startups Fundraising Valuation Planning and the Pre vs Post Money Valuation Calculator, designed to demystify the intricacies of valuation dynamics and equity structuring throughout successive funding rounds.

A Simple Way to Navigate Fundraising

At the heart of the update is the Startups Fundraising Valuation Planning module, an interactive and intuitive forecasting engine built specifically for early-stage businesses. This tool enables startup founders to simulate multiple rounds of funding, mapping out changes in ownership and company valuation from Angel and Seed rounds through to Series A, B, and C.

By entering key variables—such as the fundraising target for each round, the percentage of shares offered to new investors, the post-money valuation, and projected capital increases—founders receive an analytical breakdown of valuation growth and ownership dilution over time.

Pre vs Post Money Valuation Calculator

Complementing the planning module, the Pre vs Post Money Valuation Calculator provides a fast and simple way to assess investor equity stakes under various funding scenarios. Founders input their current pre-money valuation target, the percentage of shares they plan to issue to new investors, and their post-money valuation.

Based on these inputs, the calculator instantly derives the proportion of the company that will be owned by incoming investors on a fully diluted basis. The calculator is designed for founders and fund managers to do quick test when they are having face to face informal discussion on valuation. It helps avoid common misunderstandings about valuation terminology and ensures that cap table implications are fully grasped ahead of any deal.

A Connected Valuation Ecosystem for the Startup Journey

These new tools are part of Valtech’s broader initiative to provide a connected, user-centric platform for startups and valuation professionals. Within the app, users can:

Explore Valtech’s global Service Catalog featuring detailed descriptions of valuation offerings across industries such as tech, healthcare, and real estateAccess real-world Case Studies and testimonials to better understand valuation applicationsConnect via Live Chat with credentialed valuation experts (e.g. CFA, CPA, CVA, ABV by AICPA) for tailored guidanceReceive assistance from Valtech’s AI Valerie, powered by a proprietary financial knowledge engine, for general enquiries on valuation

Valtech’s platform also opens doors for qualified professionals to join as expert partners, contributing their regional expertise while collaborating with a broader international network.

Redefining Accessibility in Valuation

This release marks a new chapter in Valtech’s mission to democratize professional-grade valuation tools. By combining an intuitive interface with versatile features, the app transforms an often opaque and technical process into a structured, strategic planning experience.

The Valtech App’s latest updates are available now on iOS and Android. Startups, investors, and experts worldwide can download the app to leverage Valtech’s end-to-end valuation ecosystem.
