Understand runway and review earnings quality before fundraising, investing, or transacting.

Early-stage finance turns on two questions: how long the money lasts, and whether your numbers survive someone else’s scrutiny. Both tend to arrive at the worst possible moment — mid-raise, or mid-diligence — so these are built to be run well before you need the answer.

The Burn Rate Calculator gives you gross burn, net burn and runway in months from three inputs. The M&A Diligence Checklist works the other way round: it is what a buyer or investor will look for, so you can find the gaps in your own numbers before somebody else does.
