Objective and evidence

The Road to $100M Starts With $10M in Year One

1 of 12
YearRevenueCompanies paying usMarketing spendMarketing as % of revenue
Year one  this request$10M1,389$1.18M11.8%
Year two$35M4,861$3.78M10.8%
Year three$100M13,889$10.54M10.5%

Marketing costs roughly 11% of revenue at every step, so the share does not grow as the number does. We are asking to fund year one. Years two and three come back for approval once year one is delivered.

Revenue targets are annualised run-rates. Companies paying us is target monthly revenue divided by $600 a company, which is 20 seats at $30 a seat a month. Marketing scales paid media with signups and every other line at half that rate, which is why the percentage falls as revenue grows. The $35M and $100M steps are a 3.5x then 2.9x progression, in line with the companies on slide 3.

$100M Means 13,889 Companies Paying $7.2K a Year. GitHub Copilot Already Has Over 50,000.

Sonar$430M
Replit$250M
CodeRabbit$100M

Augment Code$20M
These seven together$5.35B

Why we do not lead with a market size

Published estimates for this category range from $9.35B to $34.58B for 2026, a spread of more than three times. The low estimates are already contradicted by the vendors above, whose seven companies alone reach $5.35B before GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Windsurf or Amazon Q are counted. Customer counts are observable. Market size here is not.

Price per company is 20 seats at $30 a seat a month, so $7,200 a year. Companies required is target monthly revenue divided by $600 a company. GitHub Copilot organisation count and Greptile customer count are company statements. Vendor revenue is third-party estimate and company statement, unaudited: Sonar ARR passed $430M on 2 July 2026 per Caplight; Augment Code $20M per GetLatka; Cursor, Cognition, Replit, CodeRabbit and Factory per the sources on slide 3. Market estimates: Mordor Intelligence $9.35B for 2026, Precedence Research $10.12B, 360iResearch $34.58B. Collected 4 September 2026.

Four Companies Reached $100M in Six to Sixteen Months. Only CodeRabbit Paid for It.

Hyrax plan, to $10M12Paid media$894K11.8%

Cursor reached $100M with no marketing spend at all, on a product developers told each other about, converting 36% of free users to paid. Hyrax converts 4% and has no word of mouth yet, so it has to buy the traffic Cursor was given. CodeRabbit is the company we most resemble: same buyer, same product, and it spends 11.6% of revenue on marketing, which is what this budget asks for.

Months to $100M is the gap between the last reported figure under $10M and the first at or above $100M. Cursor $4M April 2024 to $100M January 2025 per SaaStr and Sacra, which also reports 360,000 paying customers at $276 average contract value and a 36% conversion rate. CodeRabbit $5M April 2025 to $100M August 2026 per Sacra and ARR Club. Replit $10M Q4 2024 to $100M June 2025 per ARR Club. Cognition derived from reported 50% monthly growth through May 2026. Paid media today is an AdClarity US panel estimate of social advertising for the 98 days to 2 August 2026, annualised, measured at each company's current revenue and not during its climb to $100M. It excludes search, out of home and events, so every competitor figure is understated. The Hyrax figure is total paid media across all channels. Collected 4 September 2026.

We Need 126 Free Signups a Day to Reach $10M. We Get 27 Today.

Why paid alone cannot do it

At the $36 per signup we currently achieve, buying all 126 a day costs $136K a month in media alone, against the $74.5K in this budget. Paid media covers 55% of the target and no more.

The risk this creates

The remaining 57 a day are assumed to arrive at no media cost. None of those four sources is running or measured today. If they deliver half of what is modelled, paid media has to cover the shortfall and the budget rises by roughly $30K a month.

126 a day is 3,775 signups a month at 30 days, the volume the $10M target requires at a 4% upgrade rate. The 55% paid and 45% free split is the channel attribution model in the appendix. $36 per paid signup is derived from $74.5K of monthly paid media against 2,070 paid signups; we currently achieve $34 on the rebuilt ad account. 27 a day is the average of 31 August, 1 September and 2 September.

Ad Spend Below $600 a Day Produced No Signups. At $920 a Day We Get 27.

What the tests showed

Below roughly $600 a day the account produced no measurable signup volume. Spend at that level bought clicks, not accounts. The market has a floor and we spent five months underneath it.

What changed on 30 August

The account was rebuilt and daily budgets raised. Signups went from 10.6 a day to 27.3 and cost per signup fell from $60 to $34. Volume and efficiency improved together, which is the signal that the previous spend was below threshold rather than badly allocated.

Ad spend across the Google, Reddit, LinkedIn and X accounts. Signups are account records in PostHog project 436309, first tracked 10 August, so the earlier periods have spend but no signup count. Pulled 4 September 2026.

We Have No Revenue and No Raise, So We Size the Budget Backwards From $10M

6 of 12
MethodPublished benchmarkApplied to HyraxUsable
Percent of revenue8% of ARR at the median, 15–25% pre-product-market-fitHyrax has no revenue, so the denominator does not existNo
Percent of capital raised10–20% of a seed round, producing $50K–$250K a yearHyrax has no separate raise to allocate againstNo
Percent of burn15–30% of monthly burn pre-revenueWorkable, but requires a finance figure we have not been givenNeeds input
Backwards from a revenue targetMarketing budget = new ARR ÷ CAC ratio × marketing share of CAC. CAC ratio 0.7–1.2, marketing 35–45% of CACStart at $10M, divide by revenue per customer, then by the upgrade rate, then by the signup rate, then by the click rate. That gives the spendUsed here

The first three methods all need a number Hyrax does not have. The fourth starts at the revenue target and divides down the funnel: $10M of revenue, then customers needed, then signups, then website visitors, then ad impressions, then dollars. That calculation is on the next slide.

Percent of revenue and percent of raise benchmarks from AAJ Consult, Startup Marketing Spend Benchmarks, 8 June 2026, and SaaS Capital 2025 private B2B SaaS spending benchmarks. Percent of burn from Stackmatix, Startup Marketing Spend Benchmarks by Stage, 24 August 2026. The backwards method and its CAC ratio benchmarks are from MKT1, Emily Kramer, How to calculate your marketing budget, December 2024.

Marketing budget per month$98.6K$228.7K$445.4K

Each row divides into the one above it. $10M of revenue needs 1,389 companies paying us, which needs 151 new ones a month, which needs 3,775 free signups, which needs 75,500 visitors, which needs 1.89M ad impressions. That costs $98.6K a month.

All three assume 20 seats per customer at $30 a seat and 95% monthly retention. Conversion rates are from the capital allocation proposal. Seat count is from the deployment research linked on the appendix channel slide. These are planned volumes derived from the budget, not results we have recorded.

$10M Costs $1.18M in Marketing. $100M Costs $10.5M.

Why the ratio falls

Paid media scales with the signups required. Agencies, contractors and software scale at half that rate because most of that cost is fixed. The percentage improves as volume grows.

What this commits to

Year one only. Each larger target is approved separately once the prior one is delivered, and they are shown here so the trajectory is visible, not to request them now.

Customers required is the target monthly revenue divided by $600 per customer. New customers per month is the rate that reaches that count inside twelve months at 95% retention. Signups apply the 4% upgrade rate. Marketing scales paid media with signups and all other lines at half that rate.

Years Two and Three Sell a Product We Have Not Built Yet

9 of 12

Year one sells the product as it exists today. $35M and $100M do not, and we cannot price them until R&D tells us what they sell.

What year one sells

The product running today. A developer signs up free, connects a repository, and the team upgrades at $30 a seat. Every number in this budget is sized against that product and nothing else.

Why years two and three are different

$35M is 4,861 companies and $100M is 13,889. At that scale most of the revenue comes from engineering organisations far larger than the ones the current product wins. Selling to them needs capability we have not built.

What we need from R&D

The roadmap. We do not have it, so we cannot say what years two and three sell or what they cost to market. That is why this document asks for year one only.

Companies required is target monthly revenue divided by $600 a company, which is 20 seats at $30 a month. Year two and three revenue targets of $35M and $100M are a 3.5x then 2.9x progression, in line with the companies on slide 3.

Revenue is the cohort build in Appendix I: 151 new companies a month, 95% monthly retention, seats rising from 8 to 20 per company over six months. Revenue lags spend because customers arrive through the year and expand after they arrive. Line item detail in Appendix J.

Recommendation

Approve $1.18M of Marketing Spend to Generate $7.90M of Revenue

12 of 12

Approve $1.18M of marketing spend for the year, ramping from $80K a month to $117K.

What it delivers

New paying customers1,812
Revenue at month 12$7.90M
Revenue collected, year one$4.09M
ROAS, first 12 months4.6x
$10M reachedMonth 16

What we are asking you to approve

  • One approval: $1.18M for year one, released as a flat quarterly ramp.
  • Two line items need a ruling before we commit them. Out of home at $20K a month is the second largest line and has never been tested at this scale. Gauge Media at $1.2K a month duplicates Synter and our access lapsed on 30 August.
  • Nothing beyond year one is being requested. The $25M, $50M and $100M targets come back for separate approval once the prior one is delivered.

Risks

  • A third of signups are assumed to arrive free through organic and referral. We cannot yet measure that.
  • Signups carry no source tag, so cost per channel is not yet measurable.
  • Cost per customer is unchanged as volume rises, which is optimistic.

Other paid social and search covers LinkedIn, X, Meta, Reddit, ChatGPT, TikTok and Bing. SEO docs are written in-house. AI answer engines are handled by the software stack. Direct and private community signups come from repository merge tags, engineers inviting teammates, and links shared in private Slack and Discord groups. Out of home at $20K a month is not allocated to a channel row because it has no measurable signup path; the blended cost per signup of $26.12 is the full $98.6K budget divided by 3,775 signups, so it carries that spend.
