For business owners
Know where your business stands, from your own records.
Type in or import each month’s figures, keep your plan, decisions and risks beside them, and close the month with a briefing you can hand to a partner, a lender or your team. Every figure opens to the rows it came from.
See the sample business first, then name your own.

What it keeps
The month's figures
Revenue, expenses and cash at month end, typed in, imported from a spreadsheet, or read from QuickBooks Online. Surplus and margin are worked out from them.
What needs a look
A figure off its target or not yet entered, a decision due for review, a risk due, an obligation coming due: listed on the first screen you see, by rule.
Plan, decisions and risks
Objectives and initiatives with their status worked out from the dates. Decisions set against the figures on the review date. Risks rated, scored and reviewed over time.
Wins, with their proof
A Business Value Ledger of what the business achieved, with the files behind each win, turned into capability statements and case studies.
Scenarios on your own figures
A hire, a price change or a drop in revenue, worked out on your numbers: runway and break-even, with every step of the arithmetic written out.
A monthly briefing you issue
Eight sections drawn from a closed month, each figure checked against your records before you issue it once, as a PDF with a fingerprint.
Help from us, if you want it
One of our Business Consultants can type in your figures or draft your monthly briefing, if you let them in by name. You read it and issue it, the workspace shows you who prepared what, and you can end their access at any time.
