How RunwayCal handles your data
RunwayCal is a financial computation tool, not a financial institution. It reads your data to compute runway, nothing more. It does not move money, provide financial advice, or act on your behalf.
Read-only by default
RunwayCal connects to your financial accounts in read-only mode. It observes transactions to compute your runway. It does not initiate transfers, modify records, or write back to any connected system.
Founder-controlled data
You decide what connects, what disconnects, and when data is removed. RunwayCal does not retain financial data beyond what is needed to compute your current runway. You can request full deletion at any time.
No credential storage
Banking credentials are managed by regulated financial data aggregation providers that comply with bank-level security standards. RunwayCal never sees, stores, or processes your login information.
Deterministic computation
RunwayCal computes from known inputs. It does not generate AI predictions, probabilistic forecasts, or speculative projections. Outputs are derived from real data and explicit assumptions you provide.
RunwayCal is a software tool for financial computation. It is not a bank, investment advisor, or regulated financial service.
Common questions about data and trust
Straightforward answers about how RunwayCal works, what it does, and what it does not do.
Does RunwayCal provide financial advice?
No. RunwayCal is a computation tool. It computes runway, burn rate, and scenario outcomes from the data you provide. It does not recommend actions, suggest investments, or offer financial guidance. All decisions remain with the founder.
Do I need finance expertise to use RunwayCal?
No. RunwayCal is designed for founders, not accountants. You connect your accounts, and the system handles the calculations. There are no formulas to write, no spreadsheets to maintain, and no financial modeling knowledge required.
What data does RunwayCal store?
RunwayCal stores transaction-level data necessary to compute your runway and burn metrics. It does not store banking credentials, which are managed by regulated financial data aggregation providers that comply with bank-level security standards. You can disconnect accounts and request data deletion at any time.
Is RunwayCal a forecasting tool?
RunwayCal uses deterministic logic, not forecasting. It computes outcomes from known inputs and explicit assumptions you define. When you model a scenario, the system shows the arithmetic result of that scenario. It does not predict whether the scenario will occur.
How long does setup take?
Most founders are up and running in under five minutes. You create an account, connect your bank, and your runway appears. There is no onboarding call, no configuration wizard, and no waiting period.
What are the limitations of the system?
RunwayCal computes from the data available to it. If transactions are delayed, categorised incorrectly at the source, or if connected accounts do not reflect all company finances, the computed runway will reflect those gaps. The system is as accurate as its inputs.
Can RunwayCal move money or initiate transactions?
No. RunwayCal operates in read-only mode. It connects to financial accounts to observe transaction data. It cannot initiate transfers, modify balances, or write to any connected system.
Who can see my financial data?
Only users you explicitly invite to your workspace. RunwayCal does not share, sell, or expose your financial data to third parties. Role-based access controls let you determine exactly what each team member can view.
What happens if I cancel or downgrade?
You can cancel or downgrade at any time. There are no lock-in contracts. If you downgrade to Free, your saved data will not persist between sessions, but you can still model scenarios. If you cancel entirely, you can request full data deletion.
