Can you build a model for a pre-revenue startup?

Yes, from market data and defensible assumptions, structured the way investors expect.

Excel or Google Sheets?

Both, to the same institutional standard.

Financial forecasting and modelling built to be defended

A financial forecast is only worth anything if it holds up when an investor pushes on it. We build integrated three-statement models (profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow, fully linked) where every assumption is sourced and every scenario survives questioning. Founders use them to raise capital; boards use them to plan; operators use them to decide.

The engagement

Fully integrated P&L, balance sheet and cash flow models with transparent drivers, scenario toggles and sensitivity analysis. Built to institutional standards and documented so anyone can audit the logic.

What's included

Integrated three-statement model
Driver-based revenue and cost build
Base, upside and downside scenarios
Sensitivity and break-even analysis
Funding requirement and runway schedule
Assumption log and model documentation

Who it's for

Founders in an active fundraise or diligence process
Private-equity and venture teams assessing a target
Operators planning capital expenditure or expansion

What you end up with

A model that answers the hard question in the room instead of collapsing under it.

Turnaround

Typically 3 to 5 working days when assumptions are provided; 14 to 21 days when assumptions need research and build-out. Confirmed in your written scope.
