Weekly Cash Balances

Weekly Cash Balances

The Problem

Your finance team manually reconciles your bank accounts every Friday.

They're pulling numbers from your checking account, savings, maybe a line of credit. They're calculating runway. They're updating the spreadsheet.

By Monday morning, those numbers are already stale.

And you can't answer the most important question founders have: "How long until we run out of cash?"

What Actually Happens

Every week, someone in finance:

  • Logs into each bank account
  • Manually reconciles balances
  • Calculates cash burn
  • Tries to figure out runway
  • Updates the spreadsheet everyone's been asking about

By the time you have the answer, it's Friday afternoon. The data is 24-48 hours stale before you even use it. If something shifts mid-week, you won't know until the next Friday's numbers come in. You're making decisions on a weekly snapshot that's already outdated.

What It Should Look Like

One dashboard. Your real cash position. Updated automatically every single day. You see:

  • Exactly how much cash you have (across all accounts)
  • Your weekly burn rate (trending up or down?)
  • Your runway (how many months do you have?)
  • Cash inflows and outflows (where's the money going?)
  • Red flags the moment they appear (not Friday)

How It Works

Your bank data (from your checking account, savings, credit lines, wherever cash lives) flows into a system that:

  • Pulls your actual balances automatically (no manual login)
  • Standardizes how you define "cash" (maybe you count certain credit lines, maybe you don't)
  • Calculates burn rate and runway daily
  • Shows you inflows and outflows so you can see the pattern
  • Delivers it to a dashboard you check every morning

No manual reconciliation. No Friday afternoon surprises. Daily visibility.

The Real Benefit

You stop guessing about survival and start managing it. You can answer instantly:

  • "How much cash do we have right now?"
  • "How many months until we run out?"
  • "Is our burn rate increasing or decreasing?"
  • "What's causing the cash outflow spike?"

Not Friday. Today.

Why This Matters

Most founders check their cash once a week. If something goes wrong on Tuesday, you don't know until Friday.

Daily cash visibility means you catch problems early. You can act fast. You're not surprised.

And when investors ask "How's your runway?" you have the exact answer, not a guess.

The System You Own

Here's what matters: You own this completely.

This isn't another tool you're locked into. This is your system, your code, your data. You control it.

It pulls from your actual bank accounts. You own the connection. If you want to add another bank account, you add it. If you want to change how you calculate runway, you change it.

No vendor lock-in. Your data stays yours.
