Companies in cash burn positions | ModelReef

Cash isn’t infinite - but your visibility into it should be.

CFOs in high-growth or distressed environments depend on accurate cash flow visibility and financial forecasting software to manage runway. But spreadsheet-based burn tracking falls behind instantly. Model Reef connects live actuals and forecasts into one real-time engine - giving finance leaders continuous cash management tools and decisions based on truth, not lagging spreadsheets.

The hidden costs of manual burn-rate forecasting:

  • Delayed insight into liquidity risks and funding requirements
  • Large variances caused by inconsistent spreadsheet logic
  • Decisions slowed by outdated reports instead of real-time cash insights

You can’t control what you can’t see.

When every model is manual, forecasting burn becomes guesswork. One hiring delay, one vendor change, one funding adjustment - and the spreadsheet breaks. True cash position analysis drifts out of view. Model Reef solves this by unifying live actuals, forecasts, and assumptions into a connected cash engine that delivers reliable company liquidity tracking and strengthens every capital decision.

Questions before you start?

Here are the most common questions we get asked in demos.

Model Reef improves cash flow visibility by connecting live accounting data, forecasts, and cashflow logic into one real-time model. CFOs no longer rely on lagging spreadsheets that become outdated within hours. Every inflow and outflow updates instantly, allowing leaders to spot liquidity issues much sooner. This clarity strengthens conversations with boards and investors during volatile periods. Finance teams gain the confidence to plan proactively instead of reacting late. These advantages make the platform a powerful engine for accurate cash flow visibility.

Traditional forecasting frameworks collapse when budgets, hiring dates, or revenue assumptions shift. Model Reef updates forecasts automatically as new data arrives, preventing the mismatches that plague manual models. CFOs can explore multiple funding or spend scenarios without breaking logic. This reduces rework and improves forecast accuracy across the entire organisation. Boards also benefit from more reliable reporting cycles. These strengths allow finance teams to depend on Model Reef as robust financial forecasting software in fast-moving environments.

Model Reef enhances cash management tools by consolidating cashflows, burn metrics, and runway calculations into one unified dashboard. CFOs can monitor liquidity in real time instead of waiting for end-of-month reports. The platform highlights emerging risks, such as accelerating spend or slower collections, before they become critical. Finance teams can test corrective strategies instantly and share updates with leadership. This enables smarter, data-backed decisions. These capabilities greatly strengthen organisational cash management tools.

Most dashboards rely on manually updated data, making them obsolete as soon as assumptions change. Model Reef eliminates this delay by pulling live actuals and forecast changes directly into the dashboard. CFOs can view variances, runway, burn, and cash performance instantly. This supports faster decision-making during stressed liquidity periods. Boards receive a clear, accurate picture without relying on revised spreadsheets. These advantages make Model Reef a modern CFO financial dashboard.

When cash is tight, every hour matters. Model Reef provides real-time cash insights by continuously recalculating operating, investing, and financing flows. CFOs can instantly understand how spend, revenue, or planned raises affect runway. This enables immediate action when liquidity risk emerges. Teams avoid surprises that normally surface during month-end. Managers and boards gain a clearer view of the company’s short-term health. These features help organisations maintain dependable real-time cash insights.

Cash burn monitoring often breaks down when manual spreadsheets misclassify expenses or delay updates. Model Reef automates burn calculations and categorises flows consistently across all business units. This reduces variance and gives CFOs a more predictable understanding of where cash is actually going. Alerts make it easier to identify sudden cost spikes or revenue delays. Boards receive more dependable guidance on liquidity risk. These improvements create a far more stable foundation for cash burn monitoring.

Model Reef supports liquidity tracking by combining live actuals, budget assumptions, and runway calculations into one governed model. CFOs can see upcoming liquidity gaps weeks or months earlier than manual reporting allows. Boards and investors gain insights into cash coverage, risk drivers, and working capital changes. This reduces uncertainty and strengthens alignment during capital discussions. Real-time reporting also accelerates executive responses to emerging issues. These capabilities enable more reliable company liquidity tracking.

Model Reef streamlines reporting by eliminating version chaos and unifying forecast, burn, and runway data into one platform. Finance teams no longer spend nights preparing board packs or reconciling inconsistent spreadsheets. Dashboards update automatically, allowing CFOs to focus on strategic planning rather than mechanical reporting. Scenario analysis helps leaders evaluate hiring, pricing, and funding decisions with clarity. This makes capital planning more predictable and defensible. These features reinforce Model Reef as a strong finance team reporting tool.
