## Description

The Growth Rate Calculator MCP turns your raw revenue data into clear financial metrics. When you're trying to figure out if a business is actually healthy, looking at a single month of revenue doesn't tell the whole story. You need to see the trend. This Connector lets you hand over your historical data to your AI client so it can do the heavy lifting of calculating growth rates across different timeframes. Instead of manually dragging numbers into a spreadsheet to find your year-over-year progress or your current momentum, your agent can pinpoint those trends instantly. It also handles the harder stuff, like figuring out your Compound Annual Growth Rate or your Rule of 40 score, which tells you if you're balancing growth and profitability correctly. From there, you can move into the future. You can ask your agent to model what happens if you hit different targets, like accelerated growth or a steady decline, and see a 12-month projection of where your revenue might land. It takes the guesswork out of financial planning, turning a pile of numbers into a clear roadmap. You'll find this works great as part of the Vinkius catalog, where you can plug it in and get straight to the analysis without worrying about the underlying math.

## Tools

### analyze_historical_growth
Calculates MoM, QoQ, and YoY growth rates from your historical revenue data. This helps you spot immediate trends and volatility in your sales.

### calculate_key_rates
Computes your Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) and Rule of 40 score from revenue and EBITDA. These benchmarks show your long-term stability and profitability.

### generate_growth_projection
Creates a 12-month revenue forecast based on different growth scenarios and rate shifts. Use it to model various market shifts and see where your revenue might land.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
I have my revenue for the last 24 months. Can you tell me my MoM and YoY growth rates?
```

**Response:** 
```
I've analyzed your data. Here is your growth summary:

| Period | Growth Rate |
| :--- | :--- |
| Month-over-Month | 4.2% |
| Quarter-over-Quarter | 12.5% |
| Year-over-Year | 15.0% |

Your MoM growth is currently steady, but your YoY growth shows a significant upward trend.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What's our Rule of 40 score based on our revenue and EBITDA from the last 5 years?
```

**Response:** 
```
Based on your provided metrics, your Rule of 40 score is **38**. 

This indicates a strong balance between your growth rate and your profitability, which is a key benchmark for many investors.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Project our revenue for next year if we see a 5% monthly growth acceleration.
```

**Response:** 
```
Here is your 12-month projection for the **Accelerated** scenario:

*   **Month 1:** $10.5M
*   **Month 6:** $13.8M
*   **Month 12:** $18.2M

This assumes a monthly rate shift of 5% applied to your current base.
```

## Capabilities

### Calculate MoM, QoQ, and YoY growth rates
Analyze historical revenue growth across different time periods to identify trends.

### Compute CAGR and Rule of 40 scores
Get critical benchmarks that combine your growth rate with profitability metrics.

### Generate 12-month revenue projections
Create a full year of revenue forecasts based on specific growth scenarios.

### Model accelerated or decelerated growth
Predict how specific market shifts will impact your revenue over the next year.

## Use Cases

### Preparing for a VC pitch
A founder needs to know if they are hitting the Rule of 40 for a funding round. They give their agent 5 years of revenue and EBITDA data to calculate the score.

### Checking for seasonal spikes
A marketing manager wants to see if last month's growth was a fluke. They use the tool to compare MoM growth against the same period last year.

### Presenting board scenarios
A CFO needs to present three different growth paths to the board. They ask the agent to generate 'Constant', 'Accelerated', and 'Decelerated' projections.

### Validating long-term stability
A retail brand wants to see their long-term stability. They run a CAGR calculation to see their average annual growth over the last 3 years.

**What is the difference between CAGR and Rule of 40?**
CAGR measures the overall smooth, annualized growth rate over a long period. The Rule of 40 uses `calculate_key_rates` to provide a composite score (Growth Rate % + EBITDA Margin %). It is a single metric that tells investors about both revenue expansion and operational profitability simultaneously.

**Can I predict revenue for more than 12 months?**
The `generate_growth_projection` tool is designed to project a full twelve-month (12-month) forecast horizon. While you can adjust the inputs, the default and most reliable projection window provided by this server is exactly one year.
