Inflect
2-Week Diagnostic · $2,500 · One-time

The financial picture investors see.
Before you're in the room.

In two weeks, you get an outside-in investor view, verified metrics against SaaS Capital, OpenView, and Bessemer benchmarks, and the single most important insight in your business right now — in your fractional CFO's voice.

Converts to the $9,500/month managed service if it's the right fit. No obligation.

What's included

Everything in one 14-day sprint

Outside-in · No data needed

Investor View

Series A/B investor narrative, exit path scenarios, shadow 409A valuation estimate, board meeting preview, diligence gap report, and TAM reality check — all from public data.

From your books

Metrics Health Check

ARR, NRR, GRR, burn multiple, Rule of 40, LTV:CAC — computed from your GL and benchmarked against 2,600+ private SaaS companies (SaaS Capital, OpenView, Bessemer). Reconciled against your reported numbers.

The main event

Anchor Insight

The single most financially significant finding in your business right now — specific, non-obvious, with a direct line to revenue, cost, or risk. This is what the readout call starts with.

Ready to send

Investor Update Draft

A ready-to-send monthly investor update in your voice, using your actuals. 10 minutes of review, then send it. Likely the stickiest artifact in the whole engagement.

Board-ready

Monthly Package

One month of the managed service deliverable — P&L, metrics, variance commentary, anomaly detection. This is what you'd receive every month if you continue.

Cited, sourced

Peer Benchmark Report

Your metrics vs. KeyBanc, High Alpha, ChartMogul, and SaaS Capital data — matched to your ARR band. Every figure cited with source and vintage.

Common questions

What accounting systems do you support?

QuickBooks Online, Xero, and NetSuite via direct OAuth connection. CSV or Excel export works for any other system.

What if my books aren't clean?

We run an automated health check immediately after you connect. If your chart of accounts needs work, we'll tell you exactly what to fix — or you can add our $2,000 CoA cleanup service and we'll handle it.

Is this the same as hiring a fractional CFO?

The diagnostic is a scoped 2-week engagement. It gives you a clear picture of where you stand and whether ongoing support makes sense. About half of diagnostics convert to the managed service — but there's no pressure.

Can I pay by ACH?

Yes. ACH debit is available alongside card on the payment page. ACH typically processes within 1–3 business days.
