How it works

A repeatable cadence, not a one-off project.

Every retainer follows this rhythm. The AI does the mechanical work; a senior advisor owns the judgment.

Common questions

Answers, before you ask.

How is this different from a P&L forecast?

+

Direct-method means we forecast actual cash movements (receipts, disbursements), not accrual revenue. It's what lenders look at.

Can you talk to our lender directly?

+

Yes. We routinely sit on lender calls and defend the forecast on your behalf.

What if our cash is fine?

+

Then the engine helps you deploy it: timing capex, accelerating hires, optimizing payment terms.
