Name the 12 value drivers behind your worth. Then make them count.

Over 90% of company value is now intangible — and your balance sheet shows almost none of it
In 1975, most of a company’s worth sat in buildings, equipment and inventory. Today it sits in brand, customers, data and intellectual property — the assets traditional accounting was never built to recognise. For a founder heading into a round, that gap is the difference between the number you defend and the number you settle for.

Walk into your round defending a number, not optimising one
Investors do not argue with a spreadsheet guess — they argue with assumptions. Opagio Intangibles values each asset with the recognised methods professional valuers use — Relief from Royalty, MPEEM, With & Without and Cost among them — and traces every figure back to source, so your valuation reads as evidence, not aspiration.

Common questions from founders heading into a round
The things founders ask before they put a number in front of investors.
How is this different from the valuation my accountant gives me?
Your accountant values what accounting standards recognise — typically only 20 to 40% of your intangible value. Opagio names and values the full Opagio 12 spectrum, including the brand, customers and data investors price in but the accounts leave out.
I am early-stage with little revenue — does this still apply?
Especially then. Before the numbers are large, your intangibles — team, technology, brand and early traction — are most of what an investor is buying. Naming and valuing them is how you justify a number a thin P&L cannot. Explore The Opagio 12.
Will investors actually accept an Opagio valuation?
Each asset is valued using recognised IVS methods, and every figure traces back to source — so it reads as evidence in diligence rather than a founder’s estimate. You take the workings into the data room.
How long does it take to get a number?
Start free in about ten minutes with the assessment. The full Value Drivers Register then builds from your own data as you connect it, so the picture deepens without starting from a blank page.
