HOW IT WORKS

1. Set up your company, fiscal year, and chart of accounts.

2. Build a driver-based annual budget: revenue, payroll, OPEX, and CAPEX.

3. Each month, paste actuals from your accounting system (up to 5,000 rows).

4. Choose the report month. Everything updates automatically.

WHAT YOU GET

- Budget vs actual for the month and year to date, with favorable and unfavorable flags, materiality, and space for commentary

- 3 scenarios (downside, base, upside) side by side

- Cash flow, direct and indirect, reconciled every month, with cash runway and a minimum cash alert

BUILT-IN CONTROL

- 42 integrity checks with a GREEN, AMBER, or RED model status, so you know your numbers tie out before you present them
