Slidebean’s financial modeling helped us pressure-test multiple go-to-market and funding scenarios with clarity and confidence. It’s been invaluable in aligning our team and investors on a clear growth path.
I had to understand the analytics, such as growth rate, the time spent on the app, your CPM, churn, ad, and subscription revenue. So the fact that Slidebean could help me understand these terms, and walk me through them, was the difference between me getting possibly funded or not.
Amazing work from Caya and the entire Slidebean team. They built an exceptionally efficient custom financial model tailored to our complex business. The team was always responsive and reliable, perfectly implementing all our changes. I couldn’t have asked for a better process. Highly knowledgeable in what they do and extremely professional in terms of deliverables and organization/administration throughout the entire process.”
This isn’t just a spreadsheet. We partner with you to build a living financial roadmap. You bring your vision; we bring the modeling and CFO-level support to match.
Join this interactive session with Caya and learn how to build driver-based forecasts and understand the metrics that truly matter.
We approach financial models based on measurable drivers, not on vanity assumptions.
Our goal is for you to understand which KPIs will drive your startup's revenue, to make assumptions based on real-world benchmarks and to bring real-world data as soon as you have it.
Our financial modeling tools and services have helped thousands of founders manage cash, forecast growth, and make smart decisions when it matters most.
Not every startup can hire a CFO, but every founder needs one. With our Post-Revenue plan, you get quarterly sessions with a seasoned CFO who helps you make smarter decisions, plan your next raise, and stay on top of your finances.
All plans include a custom financial model built by our analysts, onboarding sessions, and monthly check-ins to help you understand and refine your forecasts. The Post-Revenue plan also includes quarterly sessions with a Fractional CFO for strategic guidance.
The scope of our work is building functionality on the model. It is not possible for us to generate inputs related to staffing, budgets, salaries, and estimated business expenses because you, and only you can forecast what expenses your business will need to make. That being said, our tool onboarding, consultations, and lessons should enable you to run forecasts on your own.
Both include a tailored model and ongoing support. The Post-Revenue plan adds more consultations and includes access to our Fractional CFO, who can help you navigate strategic decisions, budgets, and fundraising goals.

Short answer is yes. Companies, especially startups, need it to forecast potential revenue, test scenarios of their runway, and most importantly, to know how much money they need to raise. It’s vital for every business to keep track of their financial data, there’s no way around it. Investors might not ask for it in smaller rounds, but it will definitely be requested as part of the investor data room required for larger rounds.
This will greatly depend on a number of factors, but mainly: the business model complexity (i.e. revenue lines, customer acquisition channels, etc.) and the work you as our client put into the data needed to populate the model. The plan is meant to teach clients how to use the model as opposed to delivering a “finished product”, so progress depends on mutual collaboration. The onboarding and initial model setup is usually completed after the first month, but that’s only the beginning of the program, and a more mature and useful model takes months to tweak and refine according to your specific needs.
Access to the financial model tool is enabled as long as a Financial Modeling subscription is active. Setting up and onboarding takes anything from a couple of weeks to months, but keeping the model updated with your financial data is an ongoing task that our team helps with as long as the Financial Model subscription remains active.
