Startup Benchmarks Survey - 2026 Edition

Welcome to the 2026 Startup Benchmarks Survey, brought to you by High Alpha and Visible!

This year marks 10 years of Benchmarks and we've teamed up with Customers Bank to surface the performance metrics that matter most to founders, operators, and builders, especially now, when AI has shifted how startups build, spend, hire, and raise, and nobody's quite sure what "normal" looks like anymore.

That's exactly what this survey is for. Your answers become the peer-sourced numbers that thousands of founders and investors use to cut through the noise and make decisions with confidence.

Click "Next" to take part, and you'll have the opportunity to see how you stack up against your peers and what it takes to be a standout startup.

The survey takes about 15 minutes. We've shortened it from prior years to ensure more respondents finish the entire survey to make the final report meaningfully better for everyone who relies on it. All responses stay strictly confidential and are reported only in aggregate. Questions? Reach us at marketing@highalpha.com.
