How much should I raise if I want 18 months of runway, starting with a $50,000 monthly burn and a 2% monthly growth rate?

To maintain an 18-month runway with these parameters, your total fundraising target is $1,065,342. This includes a cumulative projected burn of $887,785 and a safety buffer of $177,557.

Show me the projected monthly expenses for 12 months starting at $30,000 burn with a 5% monthly growth rate.

The projected monthly expenses are: Month 1: $30,000; Month 2: $31,500; Month 3: $33,075; Month 4: $34,729; Month 5: $36,465; Month 6: $38,288; Month 7: $40,203; Month 8: $42,213; Month 9: $44,324; Month 10: $46,540; Month 11: $48,867; Month 12: $51,310. The peak burn rate is $51,310.

Is a $2,000,000 raise enough for 24 months if my initial burn is $70,000 and grows at 1% per month?

No, the proposed amount is inadequate. The required target (including a 20% buffer) is $2,345,186. You have a shortfall of $345,186.

In venture markets, maintaining 18 to 24 months of runway is considered best practice to allow sufficient time for operational growth and the subsequent fundraising cycle.
