Five systems.
Zero runway surprises.

Most founders discover they're in trouble 60 days before zero. This system keeps you 6 months ahead of that conversation.

Burn Rate Tracker
Log every expense by category. Automatically calculates your monthly burn and tells you how it's trending. No more end-of-month surprises.
Runway Calculator
Cash ÷ burn = runway. Displayed front and centre, always current. See your runway shrink or grow as you log each month's expenses and revenue.
Scenario Modeller
What if you delayed that hire? What if you cut SaaS tools by 30%? Model 3 runway-extension scenarios side by side. Make decisions from data, not panic.
Fundraising Pipeline
Track every investor — from warm intro to signed term sheet. Status, next action, intro source, and notes. Never lose track of a conversation mid-process.
MRR Dashboard
Log monthly revenue. Watch how MRR growth shrinks your effective burn rate. See the exact month your revenue covers costs — your default alive date.
Investor Update Template
Monthly investor update template pre-filled with your metrics. MRR, burn, runway, team, asks — a professional update in 15 minutes, not 3 hours.

Founders who finally know their numbers

★★★★★

"I used to look at our bank balance and guess. Now I run this every month and I know we have 9 months at current burn — or 14 if we cut the tools we barely use."

Sipho D. — Co-founder, SaaS startup, Cape Town
★★★★★

"The investor update template alone is worth 5x the price. My angels actually replied to my last update saying it was the best they'd received from any portfolio company."

Riya M. — Founder, EdTech, Nairobi
★★★★★

"We were 3 months from zero and didn't know it. This system made it visible immediately. We cut burn by 22% and extended runway to over a year. Game changer."

Marco T. — CEO, B2B startup, Lagos

Know your runway.
Stay in the game.

One bad month of spending you didn't track is more expensive than $19. This template pays for itself the first time it stops you from making a financial decision by gut feel.

Questions, answered

Is this for pre-revenue or post-revenue startups?+
Both. Pre-revenue founders use it for burn + fundraising tracking. Post-revenue founders use all five modules including MRR tracking and default alive date.
Do I need Notion paid plan?+
No. Notion's free plan works perfectly. The template uses standard databases and formulas available on free accounts.
How long does setup take?+
About 30 minutes to populate your current numbers. The setup guide walks you through it step by step.
Does it replace my accountant?+
No — it's for operational awareness, not compliance. Think of it as your real-time financial dashboard, while your accountant handles tax and reporting.
Is there a refund policy?+
30 days, no questions asked. Gumroad handles refunds directly and automatically.
