Forecast a Fundraising Round

Raising money sounds simple—until you actually have to put numbers to it. How much should you raise to avoid running out of cash too soon? How long should this round last before you need to fundraise again? And where does any of this even go in your financial model? If you’re guessing, you’re not alone. Plenty of founders struggle to forecast their round because there’s no clear formula—just a mix of investor expectations, market shifts, and a whole lot of uncertainty. Get it wrong, and you either raise too little and scramble for cash too soon, or you ask for too much and scare off investors.

Our latest feature, the Fundraising Building Block, makes it all easier.

  • Select the amount you intend to raise and the desired close date to update your Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement without even touching them
  • Play with raising different amounts and immediately see how long it buys you to operate without running out of cash
  • Adjust the closing date in real time to feel out the impact of collecting cash slower than anticipated
