With dynamic, founder-friendly financial models and real-time inputs, you’ll know exactly when to scale, pause, or raise. Stay in control, even when revenue isn’t predictable.

We pull real historical data from your accounting software to ground every projection in reality. No vague assumptions or placeholder inputs. Whether you’re pre-revenue or post-Series A, our models reflect your actual revenue cycles, payment terms, and burn patterns, so your forecasts aren’t theoretical, they’re operationally useful.
Startups evolve fast, and so should your forecasts. We build flexible forecasting models that update as your pipeline shifts, expenses scale, or hiring plans change. Need to simulate a funding delay or sudden growth in paid acquisition? We plug it in, recalculate your runway, and flag risks before they hit your cash account.
Ledger Labs monitors burn rate trends, runway erosion, and timing mismatches between income and outflows. When you’re approaching a break point, we tell you how many months you have left, what’s driving the drain, and which levers you can pull now and not after it’s too late.
When you’re pitching investors, your cash flow tells a story. We prepare clean, investor-ready forecasts that link your ask to real capital needs. Our fundraising scenarios show what each raise will buy, how long it will last, and what milestones it enables.
We specialize in SaaS forecasting, which includes monthly recurring revenue, churn, expansion, contraction, deferred revenue, and more. Ledger Labs maps subscription flows to cash movement accurately, so you understand how product usage, billing cycles, and growth projections affect cash.
We connect your banks, credit cards, and AR/AP pipelines into a single forecasting view. This means you don’t need to stitch together balances manually. You’ll get a real-time snapshot of cash on hand, committed expenses, and projected inflows.
Cash flow issues rarely hit all at once. They build up slowly through delayed invoices, uneven spending, and poor visibility into when money comes in versus when it goes out.
Startups often look profitable on paper while quietly bleeding cash. Others raise capital without knowing how long it will actually last. We’ve seen both. Our job is to make sure your bank balance and your financial plan speak the same language. That means correcting forecasts, aligning payment schedules, and tracking every dollar as it moves through your business.
We build custom models around how your company really operates. No recycled templates or blind assumptions. Just precise visibility that lets you act early and stay ahead of cash problems instead of reacting once they hit.
Hiring outsourced cash flow forecasting services like Ledger Labs gives founders something that internal teams often struggle to deliver.
We bring outside perspective, disciplined modeling, and hands-on experience with startups facing real cash volatility. Instead of relying on outdated spreadsheets or assumptions, we build dynamic forecasts rooted in your actual numbers, revenue cycles, and burn rate. That means you see problems before they happen, not after the damage is done.
With Ledger Labs, you’re getting a decision-making tool. Whether you’re planning a fundraiser, expanding headcount, or managing uneven revenue, we show you exactly how those moves impact your runway and bank balance. Every model is reviewed by seasoned professionals, built for investor scrutiny, and updated as your business evolves. It’s financial foresight built into your operations, without the cost of hiring full-time finance staff too early.
Our models are built to help non-finance founders make real decisions. We don’t just present numbers, we explain them in the context of your business goals.
We eliminate messy Excel workbooks and create clean, trackable forecasting dashboards that update with your actual cash activity. You get a clear snapshot of where you stand at any given moment.
Whether you’re raising a pre-seed or hiring after Series A, our forecasts help you model best-case and worst-case scenarios. That means fewer surprises, cleaner narratives, and investor conversations grounded in reality.
You should consider outsourcing cash flow forecasting when your internal visibility starts lagging behind your financial needs.
Nearly 37% of small businesses already outsource finance functions to access expertise and optimize spend. When you’re scaling, fundraising, or simply struggling to reconcile runway with revenue, outsourced specialists bring clarity.
Outsourced forecasting means precision models built on your real data. You’ll see cash trends before they become problems, not after. Whether you’re preparing for investor discussions or managing hiring plans, you’ll have rigorous, adaptive models under CPA-level review, not outdated or guesswork-driven spreadsheets.
Outsourcing grants visibility, agility, and accountability. It’s the difference between reactive firefighting and proactive financial management. When you hire experts like Ledger Labs, you’re paying for foresight, control, and strategic confidence, without the fixed cost of a full finance team.
When cash is tight, clarity is power. At Ledger Labs, we don’t just manage your numbers. We help you control your future. We understand how quickly the financial picture shifts for startups and fast-growing businesses.
That’s why our cash management services are built to move fast, provide clear insight, and match the realities of how modern U.S. companies actually operate.
Most accounting firms focus on what happened last month. We focus on what happens next. Whether you are tracking your burn rate, managing vendor payments, or building a funding round timeline, we make sure you are always one step ahead. Our approach is practical, data-backed, and made for founders who need to act, not wait.
Here’s what makes us different:
Where other firms hand you a dashboard and walk away, we stay involved. Our team helps you read the signals, interpret the changes, and adjust in real time. This is not a passive service.
It’s a working partnership with people who understand that every dollar in your account has a purpose.

Patrik Nichols CFOWe have a unique business, and almost all the accounting firms we have engaged so far have been unable to get a hold of our business. But Ledger Labs really took the bull by its horn. They understood our business better than us & created a very customized process & systems to streamline our accounting department. We now have detailed step-by-step process documentation, checklists & schedule of reports.
Amanda Fludd CEOLedger Labs found $18K in missed deductions that our old accountant completely missed—same books, same receipts, totally different results. That’s when I knew we were finally working with pros. Since then, they’ve helped us restructure expenses and make tax planning part of the daily flow, not just something we scramble on last minute.

My main problem always has been to know my accurate profits & this is precisely what Ledger Labs helped me with. They went through my entire supply chain costs, my monthly operational expenses, and COGS and got me the correct costing of my goods and the cost of running the business. Now I know how much I need to sell & at what price I should sell it to be profitable.
