Average CAC for Series A Mid-Market Devtools Companies

15 months

Best-in-class (top quartile): 10 months

Methodology note: This source publishes a row for Engineering, which we use as the closest representative for devtools. The number above is First Page Sage's Engineeringvalue verbatim; it isn't measured against a devtools-named cohort. It's also not segmented by company stage, so the same 15-month payback applies across all 5 stages. For more on this site's methodology, see methodology.

First Page Sage doesn't have a row literally labelled "devtools". The closest direct match in their 28-industry table is "Engineering", and the number above is theirs verbatim. Treat it as a representative rather than a direct citation for this slug; the underlying methodology targets Engineering specifically.
