You deserve better than a runway spreadsheet.

Every founder starts with a tab called “Runway v3 FINAL”. Three rounds of copy-paste later it's a pit of broken formulas. RocketRunway is a focused alternative — fast to start, impossible to break, built for the way founders actually plan.

Spreadsheets

  • Formula bugs silently skew forecasts
  • No version history you can trust
  • Sharing = PDF screenshots
  • Modeling growth = math homework

Finance platforms ($450/mo+)

  • Built for a CFO you don't have yet
  • Onboarding call + sales pitch
  • Integrations you don't need
  • Priced per seat, punitively

RocketRunway

  • Scenario model that can't break
  • Compare 2–4 futures on one chart
  • Plot milestones on your runway
  • Share a read-only link in a click

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Pick the scope of a focused tool, without the ceremony of a finance platform.

Scenario modeling

Model base / optimistic / cautious in minutes. Each scenario is a clean sandbox — edit one without touching the others.

Growth that isn't math homework

Absolute, percentage, or target-by-date growth per line item. Salaries up 8% annually, infra plateauing at $40k/mo — one-click to model.

Milestones on your runway

Plot fundraise targets, hires, product launches. Anchor by fixed date or relative to cash-out. See which scenarios clear them.

Compare on one chart

Overlay 2–4 scenarios and see the gaps in one glance. Side-by-side runway, cash-out date, monthly burn.

Share without friction

One-click read-only link for co-founders or investors. Password-protect on Pro+. Hide the branding on Team.

AI that edits your model

“Bump all salaries 10% from June and drop infra 5% per quarter.” Preview the diff, accept or reject per line.

Scenario comparison

See every future on one chart.

Pick 2 to 4 scenarios. Overlay them. Read off the runway, the cash-out date, the monthly burn — side by side. No more copy-pasting tabs to see what happens if you hire two engineers six weeks earlier.

Milestones

Plot the moments that actually matter.

Fixed-date milestones (\u2018Series A on May 12\u2019) or relative-to-cash-out (\u20183 months before zero\u2019). Anchor a target balance. Drag to reposition. Watch them land, or not, across scenarios.

Questions founders ask.

How is this different from a Google Sheet?+

A spreadsheet is flexible, but every model is bespoke — formulas break, scenarios are copy-pasted tabs, sharing is PDFs. RocketRunway gives you scenario isolation, growth modeling, milestone annotations, and one-click sharing as first-class features. If you outgrow it, export CSV and go back to a sheet.

Do I need a credit card to start?+

No. The 7-day trial gives you full Pro features with no card. If you don’t subscribe, the workspace moves to read-only, then gets archived 30 days later. Your data is safe — subscribe any time to restore.

What counts as a ‘scenario’ on the Startup plan?+

Scenarios are distinct runway models — e.g. ‘base case’, ‘hire-two-engineers’, ‘delayed fundraise’. Startup includes 3 active scenarios; Pro goes to 10; Team is unlimited. Duplicate and tweak is the standard workflow.

Can I share a scenario with my investor without them creating an account?+

Yes. Every plan has share links — a read-only URL you can send anyone. Pro adds password protection. Team removes the 'Powered by RocketRunway' footer.

Does the AI actually edit my model, or is it just chat?+

It edits. Describe a change (‘bump salaries 10% from June’) and it generates a diff of specific line-item updates. You see the preview, accept or reject per line. Nothing changes without your click.

Who owns my data?+

You do. Export to CSV any time. If you delete a workspace, we hard-delete the data (not soft-delete) within 24 hours.

Do you have a free tier?+

No, deliberately. Free tiers optimise for the wrong thing — the product gets neutered and support gets overrun. Instead: a 7-day Pro trial, then a $12/mo Startup plan that’s priced to sting less than a lunch.

Build the model once. Trust it forever.
