Weighted Pipeline Value Calculator — Forecast Revenue from Deal Size & Win Probability

Enter each deal's amount and win probability (%) to instantly calculate your sales pipeline's Weighted Pipeline Value. A free tool for sales managers and RevOps teams.

Tips

  • Agree on standard win-probability guidelines per deal stage (e.g. 20% for first meeting, 50% for proposal, 80% for final approval) so estimates stay consistent across reps.
  • This tool estimates deals that have not yet closed. Once a deal closes, track it individually with money.business.acv (Annual Contract Value calculator).
  • A single large deal with a low win probability can swing the total weighted value significantly, so pay extra attention to accuracy on your biggest deals.
  • Win probabilities shift as the quarter progresses, so re-entering them regularly keeps your end-of-quarter forecast more accurate.

Frequently asked questions

It is the sum of each deal's amount multiplied by its win probability (%). By including still-open deals weighted by likelihood, it gives a more realistic forecast than simply adding up every deal's full value.

There is no single correct answer, but many teams derive a standard figure per deal stage (first meeting, proposal, quote submitted, final approval, etc.) from historical win rates, assigning higher probability to later stages.

Total deal amount is the maximum possible outcome if every deal closed, while weighted value reflects each deal's win probability for a more realistic estimate — and is generally closer to what actually lands.

Not necessarily. It is a statistical estimate, and each individual deal ultimately either closes or is lost. The gap between the weighted forecast and actual results tends to shrink as the number of deals grows.

Side Note — Why sales forecasts multiply in "probability"

When a sales manager tries to predict how the quarter will land, simply adding up every deal's amount tends to produce an overly optimistic number. Treating a deal that was just proposed the same as one about to be signed means losing a single large, early-stage deal can throw the whole forecast off.

To avoid this, sales organizations widely multiply each deal by its win probability to compute an expected value — the same idea behind expected value in statistics: "if this situation repeated many times, what would the average outcome be," applied in advance to a single deal's forecast.

While money.business.acv handles the annualized value of a single, already-closed contract, this tool sums multiple still-open deals weighted by probability — a different target. Most CRMs build this idea into their pipeline reports by default; this tool lets smaller teams estimate it easily even before adopting a full CRM.
