Can we afford two hires
Runway, worked out in a minute.
The Accountant

In
Lirie asks in a Slack message at 21:10: ‘if we hire two developers in January, how long is our runway?’
Out
DoneAbout 12 months instead of 15, with the figures behind it and a spreadsheet with three versions.
What it does
It does the arithmetic from real figures.
- 01Reads today’s balance from the bank
- 02Takes six months of income and spending from the books
- 03Adds the cost of two developers, with the employer’s pension
- 04Builds a spreadsheet with today, plus two hires, and without Acme
When it asks you first
It keeps sensitive figures where they belong.
- Shares bank and payroll figures only with the owners and finance, in a direct message
- States its assumptions and offers another version
What you see
Lirie gets the answer, the reasoning and a file to share with whoever needs it.
