ValuFai research and methodology notes
This is the home of ValuFai’s research and methodology notes — evergreen pieces that explain how digital-portfolio value actually works. They are written for founders, operators, and the people who fund, lend to, and acquire them.
Latest notes
- Why Digital Portfolios Can Be Worth More — or Less — Than Their Parts — when a portfolio is genuinely diversified and when it only looks that way.
- What Is Operating Capability Worth? — the economic value of a team, and why it is not ownership of people.
- Why Evidence Confidence Matters in Digital-Business Valuation — why honest uncertainty beats invented precision.
- Standalone Value vs. Strategic Value — two different questions, and why conflating them misleads.
- The Founder Dependency Problem — the most common reason a good business prices badly.
- What Makes a Digital Business Transferable? — the difference between a business and a founder-dependent job.
These are explanatory pieces, not financial advice. ValuFai’s numbers remain indicative estimates produced by a deterministic, versioned methodology.
