What goes in

Every dollar in and out, from the systems that hold it.

Bank balances

Every account, each morning: the starting point and the check.

Bills and payments

What you owe and when it is due, from your accounting system.

Payroll

Each pay date with its taxes and benefits, from your payroll system.

Rent, loans and taxes

Fixed payments on their schedule, including loan payments and estimated taxes.

Sales and collections

Cash in by location, from your sales system and card processor, on the days it lands.

Accuracy, scored

Each week the forecast is compared with what the bank shows, so you know how far to trust it.

Who decides

Your CFO makes the calls.

The forecast shows where cash is heading if nothing changes. It reads your systems and never moves money. Which bills to pay first, when to draw on a credit line and what to tell a lender stay with your CFO, who can test each choice against the forecast first.

Working with a fractional CFO? It gives them the cash picture without the spreadsheet hours.

How it works

Set up with you, then every morning.

Connect

Bank, accounting, payroll and sales, through the Data Engine.

Set up

We agree the categories and when each payment lands, you set the minimum cash, and we test the forecast on past weeks.

Questions

Is this a budget?

No. A budget is the plan for the year. The forecast shows the cash you will actually have, week by week, from what is in your systems today. Our guide covers how PE-backed companies run the annual budget.

Who uses it?

The CFO or controller, and whoever they report cash to: owners, a sponsor or a lender.

Does it pay bills or move money?

No. It reads your systems and never moves money. Every decision stays with your team.

How accurate is it?

Each week we compare the forecast with what the bank shows and report the gap, so its record is in front of you. Where it misses, we find out why and fix the timing.

What does it cost?

A setup fee, then a monthly fee, quoted once we've seen your bank accounts and systems.
