How The Narraitive reads a information technology company
Technology valuations currently route through one question: position in the AI buildout. Sellers of compute and infrastructure ride hyperscaler capex (~$480B annualized in our tracking); software incumbents are tested on whether AI features defend or erode seat pricing. Gross margin is the single most honest indicator of competitive position.
The metrics that matter
- Revenue growth vs the AI capex cycle
- Gross margin (the moat's measurement)
- R&D intensity and product cadence
- Backlog / remaining performance obligations
