Runway Calculator

Everything that reliably arrives, divided by what a month honestly costs. Not an estimate — a number you recompute on a schedule.

If a partner's income reliably covers part of the month, subtract their share here rather than inflating the pot.

What is not runway

Retirement accounts, home equity, and available credit. If it cannot pay October's mortgage without a penalty, a sale, or a loan, it is not a month of runway. Counting them anyway is how a six-month problem becomes a decade problem.

Taught in your runway number, part of layoff to launch.
