Take control of your startup runway and revenue projections
Estimate your revenue, expenses, and how much money your startup needs to raise using our startup financial model template, available to download in Excel and Google Sheets.
Hello, PH Community! 👋 My name is Caya (you may recognize me/Slidebean from our YouTube videos on startups).
Back in 2016, we published a Medium article and included a free copy of the financial model template we had been using for our budget. We sort of forgot about the article, but fast forward a few years, and it's been downloaded by over 50,000+ startups.
As runway became a new concern/priority for startups, we've been working on simplifying it, making it more intuitive, fixing a couple of bugs, and properly documenting its functionality with some video tutorials + a knowledge base. We've also added new features like a cash flow dashboard, a cap table, and an earnings-per-share estimation.
And we've, of course, kept it as a free resource!
Our goal here is to demystify spreadsheets and startup budgeting. I genuinely believe this is a crucial document/tool for founders: so many of the companies I connect with don't have enough oversight on their expenses and their runway, or can't easily estimate revenue for their next quarter. After ~10 years of overcoming budget crunches with our own company, the spreadsheet we use (which is still a version of this one) is a trusted advisor I review at least a couple of times per week.
