Data cores

Core Metrics are used to calculate additional metrics, set for monthly collection, and pre-configured by AcceleratorApp. The Core Metrics are disabled by default, you can always reach out to your customer service representative if you want to enable it. They will be stored in your startup portfolio and in each startup file. The core metrics and data are classified into 5 categories:

• Cash allocation

• Customer/User

• Employees

• Sales

• Financing

  

Note: If you don’t consider the data relevant for your analysis, you can toggle off those metrics.

To do so, we ask four yes or no questions when the Startup is created or immediately after it is accepted in an application process.
