Coming in a future release
This page previews a feature we are building. It is not part of the current version and is not available to use or purchase yet. The design and timing may change as development continues.
Instead of guessing at Best Case / Worst Case / Most Likely, model the funding decisions you actually control — and instantly see what each structure means for your runway, ownership, and financial health.
The classic Best Case / Worst Case / Most Likely model asks founders to imagine futures they cannot predict — so they make up optimistic numbers that feel authoritative but aren't grounded in anything real. The Funding Scenario Tool asks a question founders can actually answer: "What if I structured my funding differently?" How much of your own money to put in, whether to take on debt, whether to seek a grant — these are decisions you control, and the tool shows you the real consequences of each one.
Personal Equity
Your own money put into the business.
Outside Equity
Angel or investor money in exchange for ownership.
Non-Dilutive Funds
Grants and rewards-based crowdfunding — no ownership given up.
Debt
Loans that must be repaid with interest, regardless of ownership.
Runway Implication
Every scenario shows approximately how many months of runway it provides — the single metric a first-time founder understands instantly, no accounting background required.
"What This Means for You" Summary Card
A fixed three-sentence plain-English summary for every scenario: what changed, the tradeoff, and one thing to watch. Numbers are calculated deterministically; an LLM only explains them — it never calculates.
Advisor Engine
After saving a Base Case, a CPA-authored heuristics library silently suggests alternative funding structures worth modeling — always framed as "Scenarios to Consider," never as recommendations or advice.
Stress Test Mode
Answer three plain-English questions about revenue shortfalls and personal runway, and see which saved scenarios survive the stress and which don't.
Comparison View
Side-by-side view of the Base Case alongside saved scenarios, with runway thresholds color-coded so the tradeoffs are visible at a glance.
Scenario: Added SBA Loan ($30,000 at 6.5%, 60 months)
What Changed: In this scenario you are borrowing $30,000 more than your base case.
The Tradeoff: The benefit is 5 additional months of runway and you retain full ownership. The cost is a $580 monthly loan payment that begins immediately, regardless of revenue.
One Thing to Watch: You need at least $580 in monthly revenue from day one to cover this payment.
Manual Scenarios
Manual scenario builder across the four capital buckets, a plain-English comparison view, and runway implications for every scenario.
Advisor Engine
Proactive scenario suggestions based on a CPA-authored heuristics library, plus Stress Test mode.
Refinement
Industry-specific rule sets, three-or-more scenario comparison, and an admin UI for heuristics rule edits.
