Runway Overview
See how the current financial position carries into runway.
Read the available cash position, the operating burn around it, and the month-by-month path to a potential cash-out point. The result is a deterministic planning readout, not a prediction or a promise about what happens next.
- Starting point
- Estimated available cash
- Method
- 36-month timing-aware walk
- Boundary
- Scenario values stay separate
Product evidence
The runway readout needs the position and the path together.
The current legacy capture no longer reflects the product truth closely enough to serve as primary evidence. A verified capture is reserved for the contract below.
Runway Overview: position and runway
Capture the current product surface with available cash, monthly burn, runway, cash-out timing, and enough surrounding context to show how the readout is grounded.

A monthly walk, not a balance divided by one flat number.
RunwayCal carries the starting position through a 36-month timeline. Each month reflects supported cash movement and its timing. The headline runway is the number of months survived before the balance first becomes non-positive.
- 01
Available cash
The walk begins with the estimated available position. Locked deposits remain separate until their dated maturity release enters the timeline.
- 02
Recorded receipts
Realized deal receipts can enter the monthly path. Expected revenue, pipeline, and unlanded funding do not become baseline cash.
- 03
Operating outflows
Payroll, tools, and commitments are resolved into the months in which they affect the forward cash walk.
- 04
Dated pressure
Annual renewals, non-monthly commitments, and eligible maturity releases can create a different path from a flat monthly estimate.
Read the number correctly
Runway, burn, and cash-out answer different parts of the question.
Monthly burn is a smoothed cost readout based on months one through three. Runway itself follows the actual monthly path, including dated pressure, so the burn card does not act as a flat divisor. Cash-out identifies the first non-positive month within that path.
A timeline that does not cross zero within the 36-month horizon means the organization survives the full visible window. It does not mean infinite runway, and the cash-out date is planning context rather than a guaranteed outcome.
- Current cash
- The estimated available starting position used by the walk.
- Monthly burn
- A reconciled, smoothed operating-cost readout for the next three full months.
- Runway
- The month count produced by the cumulative timing-aware path.
- Cash-out
- The first month in which the modeled balance reaches or crosses zero.
Financial-state boundary
The current runway stays separate from what might happen.
What the baseline does not assume
Conservative treatment keeps unlanded or hypothetical inputs from quietly improving the current runway.
- Unlanded funding and expected deal revenue
- Projected Treasury yield before it is credited
- Planned hires that are not active and paid
- Scenario assumptions and optional projections
