ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue)

ARR is the predictable annual revenue from subscriptions — simply MRR multiplied by 12.

ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue) is the yearly version of MRR, often used by larger SaaS businesses and investors to assess growth at a higher level. ARR = MRR × 12.

Investors and business owners use ARR to determine valuations and compare year-over-year growth. Healthy ARR growth of 20-40% is often considered strong in the SaaS world, depending on company size.

Just like MRR, customer service plays a direct role in ARR retention: every prevented cancellation preserves a full year of revenue, not just a month.
