What is Signed's Currency Magic™?

Every money field in Signed has a little label in the corner that says Currency Magic™, and it exists so you never have to count zeros again:

Here's everything it can do.

Shorthand that expands itself

Type a number the way you'd say it out loud, and Signed expands it the moment you leave the field:

• k for thousands — 35k becomes $35,000
• m for millions — 2.5m becomes $2,500,000
• b for billions — 1b becomes $1,000,000,000

Capitalization doesn't matter (5M and 5m are the same), decimals work (7.5k → $7,500), and you can even mix in commas (1,500k → $1,500,000) if that's how your brain works.

It does the math for you

A money field is also a tiny calculator. Type a simple expression and Signed evaluates it when you tab away:

• Addition — 5500 + 7300 becomes $12,800. Handy when one investment arrived as two wires.
• Subtraction — 100k - 12500 becomes $87,500.
• Multiplication — 50k * 3 becomes $150,000. Or multiply price per share by your share count and skip the spreadsheet entirely.

You can chain operations and mix shorthand freely — 35k + 5k works, and so does 2 * 1.5m + 250k. Multiplication happens first, then addition and subtraction, just like you learned in school. (We considered calling the feature "arithmetic," but it didn't test as well.)

When you save, Signed strips the display commas behind the scenes so the exact value is recorded — the formatting is for your eyes, not the database.

Where you'll find it

Anywhere Signed asks you for a dollar amount: investment amounts, post-money valuations, valuation caps, price per share, SAFE conversions, marks, committed capital, and company metrics like ARR, cash, and monthly burn. If there's a $ in the field, the magic is there — hover the Currency Magic™ label for a quick reminder of the syntax.

So the next time you're logging a $2,500,000 round, just type 2.5m and move on with your day.
