Parallel

Used by Startups Funded by

We kept hearing the same story from founders: “I have a spreadsheet, but I don’t trust it.”

From scenario modeling to burn and runway tracking, we built Parallel to give you the tools to confidently answer questions like: Can I afford this hire? When will I run out of cash? What do I need to raise? No more spreadsheets or time-consuming workflows. Just clear, reliable answers. Track your burn rate, model your runway, and plan your raise – without the complexity.
