I created a startup finance sheet out of frustration, now it's saving me hours each week.

A few months ago, I was trying to keep track of my startup’s finances — revenue, expenses, burn rate, break-even, all that. I thought it would be simple. Spoiler: it wasn’t. 😅 Every tool I found was either built for big companies or needed a finance degree to even set up. So I did what any founder tired of spreadsheets would do — I built my own. I started with the basics: tracking income and expenses. But then I realized I needed more: A month-wise P&L that updates itself Cash flow & burn rate (because runway panic is real) A break-even calculator (which actually helped me price better) And something that didn’t make me cry when I opened it on a Monday morning It’s not fancy. No VC dashboards or AI graphs. But it works. It’s helped me understand my own numbers better and avoid a few expensive mistakes. Now when someone asks “What’s your burn?” or “When do you break even?” — I don’t stare at them blankly. I’ve shared a bit more on my profile for those who might be struggling with the same chaos. Not trying to sell anything here — just thought I’d share because honestly, I wish I had something like this 6 months ago FINVO.gumroad.com
