“As a startup coach and repeat entrepreneur myself, I spend a lot of time in spreadsheets. The Foresight tools that I’ve used are easy to understand, modify, and, perhaps most importantly, the formulas are correct! Beyond the actual spreadsheets, Taylor is a wealth of knowledge and an incredibly quick communicator. He has gone above and beyond what I expected to deliver value.”

Build a 3-year monthly budget. Track expenses and hires. Model equity, debt, and grant funding. Watch your cash balance roll forward and see exactly when you run out, and what changes when you cut, hire, or close a round.
Lighter than the Standard Financial Model. No prebuilt revenue logic. Paste your revenue assumptions in and focus on the spend side. Most early-stage founders don't need a complex revenue forecast; they need to know the burn picture is right.
Every cell open. Inputs in blue, formulas in black, rows documented. Built so you and your AI can edit without breaking it.
Why download this when I could build a burn tracker myself?
You could. But the burn picture going into a round or a board meeting has to be right, and a cash forecast that double-counts a hire or drops a month is the kind of mistake nobody catches until it matters. This is a clean structure that already handles the rolling cash math, so you (or your AI) fill in numbers instead of debugging formulas.
What's the difference between this and the Standard Financial Model?
This is cost-focused. Plug your own revenue numbers in. The Standard adds a full prebuilt revenue model. Pick that one if you need to forecast acquisition, conversion, churn, MRR/ARR, and the like.
Excel or Google Sheets?
Both. All formulas open, no macros.
Pay what you want?
Yes. Set the price you think is fair. Updates are free for the major version.
What if I outgrow it?
Move to the Standard Financial Model when you need real revenue modeling. The cost structure carries over.

“Awesome! Taylor's templates have been so useful in consulting for different startup clients. You don't have to spend hours building a model from scratch.”
