What your sector's numbers say

• The plan converts your profit goal into chargeable hours, utilisation and the rate card required to reach it.
• Debtor days are the silent killer in services — cash flow is projected against real receivable timing.
• Subcontractors versus employees changes payroll tax and on-costs; both are applied at statutory rates.

Billable utilisation above 65% is where margin appears.

Everything wired into this demo

Swipe through the features that keep a plan auditable, testable and alive long after the bank says yes.

Chronological Ledger Unpacker

Drill into any headline number and unpack it into the individual entries behind it — add, edit or delete rows and the whole plan re-solves instantly.

Every figure is traceable to a line item, so lenders can audit the plan instead of trusting it.

Live what-if scenario slider

Move your profit goal from −50% to +200% and watch revenue, volume, staffing, tax and funding re-solve in real time.

Stress-testing happens in the same model, not a duplicated spreadsheet tab.

AI Commercial Lease Scouter

Search real commercial premises against your plan's occupancy budget and floor-area needs, then send an AI-drafted agent enquiry.

No other planning tool connects a modelled rent line to actual available premises.

Xero, MYOB & QuickBooks sync

Pull real trading data into the Actual vs Projected view; synced fields lock so your reported numbers can never be edited by hand.

The plan keeps living after launch — it becomes the variance report, not a one-off document.

Inline AI enhancer

Sharpen any narrative field in place — summaries, marketing copy, pitch slides, investor notes — without leaving the page.

Writing assistance is embedded in the document, not a separate chatbot to copy from.

Heal Financial Plan

Auziplan diagnoses imbalance, negative runway and out-of-range benchmarks, then repairs the plan and shows exactly what it changed.

Self-correcting balance sheet: the statements are always internally consistent.

Proposals & e-signature portal

Issue re-equity and investor proposals from your plan numbers and share a private signing link with a legally structured document.

Deal documents are generated from the model, so terms and figures can't disagree.

Cloud auto-save & plan sharing

Every keystroke is saved to the cloud, versioned per plan and shareable with an accountant, partner or lender by link.

Collaboration without emailing spreadsheet versions around.
