A quick SaaS finance reference for metric definitions, formulas, benchmarks and decision context during analysis.
npx skills add deanpeters/Product-Manager-Skills --skill finance-metrics-quickref -a claude-codeWhat finance-metrics-quickref does
finance-metrics-quickref provides short lookups for SaaS finance metrics: a definition, formula, benchmark and decision context. It covers NRR, CAC, LTV, payback period, burn rate, Rule of 40 and related measures.
Name the metric you need, or provide your figures and have the formula applied to them. The reference groups metrics into revenue and growth, unit economics, capital efficiency, and efficiency ratios.
This skill is a poor fit for detailed calculation guidance because it is built for quick checks during analysis. Use saas-revenue-growth-metrics or saas-economics-efficiency-metrics when you need a deeper walkthrough.
What it helps with
- look up an NRR formula
- check a CAC payback benchmark
- spot churn warning signs
- apply a metric formula to supplied figures
- prepare a concise metrics reference for a review
Example prompts for the agent
- Use finance-metrics-quickref: give me the NRR formula and benchmark.
- Check CAC payback: formula, benchmark and warning sign.
- I need a quick Rule of 40 reference for a metrics review.
