Most Popular Narrative: 12% Overvalued
On the numbers, the analyst consensus Narrative on Simply Wall St pegs Amplitude's fair value at $15.36. This sits below the recent $17.21 close and frames the stock as pricing in a lot of good news already, even with revenue growth and AI adoption in the mix.
The rapid shift to a multiproduct platform, where 48% of customers use multiple products and over 26% of ARR comes from customers with five or more products, supports higher pricing uplifts that can push current valuation to assume continued expansion of ARR per customer and stronger free cash flow.

Result: Fair Value of $15.36 (OVERVALUED)
