Frequently asked questions
- How is runway calculated?
- Cash divided by net monthly burn (expenses minus revenue). With growth enabled, the model simulates month by month until cash hits zero.
- How much runway should a startup have?
- Conventional wisdom is 12-18 months after each raise, so you always have time to fundraise without desperation.
- What burn rate should I enter?
- All monthly operating costs: salaries, rent, tools, marketing. Subtract recurring revenue to get net burn.
- Does the growth rate apply to expenses too?
- No, this simple model holds expenses flat and grows only revenue, which is the optimistic case.
