Why did you guess $20MM for Divvyshot?

Honestly, I can't remember. But more than happy to change it with better (or for that matter... any) reasoning!

All of your exit numbers seem crazy high. I'm left wondering if it's just wishful thinking, or if I'm way underestimating how much companies will shell out in talent acquisitions.

One number that I know for sure (it was publicized at the time) is Omnisio for $15 million. At that point it was about six months or so into the life of the company, which seems crazy high to me.

TechStars at least publicizes whether the exits are > or < $2million, which can be a helpful guide...

$20M would be awesome deal for Sam - a self funded (?) single founder led company...

I'd bet under $10M, probably closer to $5M. Based on me sitting in my chair knowing nothing.

Unless you have something supporting an estimate, I wouldn't put anything in at all.

If your guess is no better than the reader's, I think it's best to provide the relevant information you know, and let us draw our own conclusions.
