Why More Startups Are Using Rolling Valuations in 2026

What this episode covers

Episode 42 of The Series A Show explores why rolling valuations are becoming the default for early-stage deals in 2026. Lucas and Luna break down the mechanics behind this shift, using the example of a hypothetical AI startup that raised three tranches at different valuations over six months. They discuss how rolling valuations reduce price risk for both founders and VCs, and why the current market environment—with volatile public comps like Palantir and Coinbase—makes static valuations harder to justify. The episode also touches on the rise of AI subscription price wars, as seen in Google's recent move, and how that impacts SaaS multiples. A natural, data-driven conversation for founders and operators navigating today's fundraising landscape. #RollingValuations #StartupFunding #SeriesA #VentureCapital #FounderAdvice #PitchDeck #Valuation #AIStartups #SaaS #Fundraising #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #StartupMilestones #EarlyStage #2026Trends #InvestorStrategy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
