DECISION TOOLS FOR FOUNDERS

Cash Runway

Calculator™

Your 90-Day Survival + Scale Plan

Find out how much runway you actually have, how fast it's moving, and what to do next - before cash pressure starts making your decisions for you.

Built for founders who want a sharper read on cash - not another finance worksheet.

See your runway. Test your decisions.

Respect your operating mode.

Plug in your current cash, costs, and revenue. The calculator does the rest. Surface your real runway, model what happens if conditions shift, and map your next 90 days to a focused operating mode.

No fluff. No complicated setup. No finance degree required. Just a clearer read on cash, burn, and

what your next 90 days actually demand.

WHAT THIS TOOL HELPS YOU SEE

Turn founder noise into a sharp decision map.

ALCHEMETRICS EQ® sits between your gut and your metrics, helping you see where conviction is earned, forced, or missing entirely.

Your Real Runway:

How many months of cash do you actually have? The calculator works from your current cash position, fixed costs, variable costs, and revenue - then surfaces gross burn, net burn, runway length, and break-even distance.

What Happens When Conditions Shift:

Run simple scenario comparisons - revenue drops, cost cuts, pricing changes, so you can stop guessing and start pressure-testing the decisions that matter.

What Mode You're Really Operating In:

The calculator maps your runway to a zone: Under 3 months = Survival. 3–6 months = Stabilization. 6+ months = Growth.

What to Do Next:

Founder-facing action guidance built around the next 90 days - not generic financial advice you have to translate on your own.

WHY FOUNDERS USE IT

Because

'We Should Be Fine' Isn't a Strategy.

Most founders don’t need more reports. They need a fast, honest answer to four questions:

  • How long does the cash last?

  • What’s putting pressure on it?

  • Which lever matters most right now?

  • Is there room to grow - or is it time to stabilize first?

This tool helps you answer all four in minutes.

Most tools give you a number. This one gives you a direction.

All you need is FIVE inputs. The tool does the heavy lifting.

No formulas to build. No interpretation required. You start with a spreadsheet. You finish with a decision framework.

WHO IT’S FOR

Built for Founders & Operators Who:

       Want a quick, useful view of where cash actually stands

       Are making near-term spending, pricing, or growth decisions

       Need to know whether they’re in survival, stabilization, or growth mode

       Prefer a practical planning tool over theory

WHAT’S INSIDE

A tiny system that upgrades how you decide.

No logins. No infinite tabs. Just a focused decision tool you can keep coming back

to as your company evolves.

01. Cash Runway Calculator

Your core runway estimate.

02. Scenario Planner

Test decisions before you make them.

03. Runway Status Logic

Survival, Stabilization or Growth

04. 90-Day Action Direction

Tailored guidance by mode.

Take 10 focused minutes with your company.

That's all the calculator asks for. Your real numbers, a few scenario questions, and the willingness to see where cash actually stands. Use it on your own. Or, if the numbers raise bigger questions, there's an optional next step after download.

Before you opt in, a transparent note.

This is a directional planning tool. It’s designed to help you think more clearly about cash, burn, and next moves - not to replace a full financial review. But it only works with the numbers you provide, and the quality of the output depends on the honesty of the input.

We built it this way on purpose. What this gives you is a grounded read - clear enough to act on, honest enough to trust.

A clearer read on cash. A sharper direction for the next 90 days.

Less second-guessing. More grounded movement. Starting with the next decision on your desk.

Every spending decision gets easier when you know the mode you're in.

Hiring, pricing, marketing, cutting...

Founders make these calls daily without a clear read on what the cash can actually support.

The 90-Day Action Plan ensures the decisions you're already making have a framework behind them instead of just gut reactions and crossed-fingers.

F.A.Q.s

What do I get for $1?

The full Cash Runway Calculator — including the Scenario Planner, Runway Status Logic, and 90-Day Action Direction. Delivered instantly after purchase. Nothing held back, no lite version.

How does it work?

You enter five numbers you already know — cash on hand, fixed costs, variable costs, monthly revenue, and revenue trend. The calculator models your burn, estimates your runway, runs scenario comparisons, and maps your next 90 days to a clear operating mode.

What format is it in?

It's a Google Sheets-based tool. You'll need a Google account to access it. No software to install, no additional apps — just open, make a copy, and start entering your numbers.

How long does it take to complete?

About 10 minutes with your real numbers in front of you. The inputs are straightforward and the outputs are automatic.

Is there a refund policy?

Due to the digital nature of the product, all sales are final. You receive the complete tool immediately — there's nothing gated or withheld after purchase.

What if I want help after I use the calculator?

If the results raise questions you want to think through with someone, there's an optional next step after the thank-you page — a short 3-question fit review to see whether a deeper Business Health Assessment makes sense for your business. No pressure, no sales call. Just a quiet path forward if you want one.
