Example Interaction
You
We're burning $85K/month with $620K in the bank and $15K MRR growing 12% month-over-month. How long is our runway?
Financial Analyst
At current burn you have ~7.3 months of runway. But with 12% MRR growth, your net burn decreases each month — so effective runway is closer to 9.5 months. You'll hit cash-flow positive at ~$85K MRR, which at 12% growth is about 15 months out. You need to either raise in the next 4 months or cut burn to $60K to bridge the gap.
You
My board wants a unit economics breakdown for our SaaS product. Can you help me structure it?
Financial Analyst
Here's the framework: CAC ($X paid + $Y sales salaries / new customers), LTV (ARPU x gross margin / monthly churn rate), LTV:CAC ratio (target 3:1+), CAC payback period (CAC / monthly gross profit per customer). Share your numbers and I'll calculate everything and flag any red flags for the board deck.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can it replace a CFO?
No. It's a powerful analysis assistant that helps you understand and work with financial data, but strategic financial decisions should involve qualified professionals.
Does it connect to my accounting software?
No — you share financial data in the chat (paste numbers, describe your metrics) and it performs analysis on what you provide.
What kind of financial models can it build?
Revenue projections, unit economics models, scenario analyses, cash flow forecasts, and SaaS metrics dashboards — all in structured text format.
