The Ama · Your Financial Stabilizer

In outrigger canoe design, the ama is the stabilizing float that prevents the vessel from capsizing in turbulent waters. A crew that knows exactly how much fuel they have can push harder. A crew flying blind holds back. OUTRIGGER BALANCE gives you the visibility to push forward with confidence.

Free tier available with cash dashboard and limited 90 day forecasting. No credit card required.

The Problem We Solve

You cannot make strategic decisions on a bank balance alone.

  • A bank balance tells you where you are. Not where you are going.

    OUTRIGGER BALANCE models your cash trajectory 90 days forward based on your real data. See exactly what happens before a situation becomes a crisis.

  • Every strategic decision deserves a scenario model first.

    Should you hire now or wait? Can you afford that marketing push? What if that deal slips 60 days? Run the scenario in OUTRIGGER BALANCE and see the cash impact before you spend a dollar.

  • Buyers, brokers, and valuations all need the same financial picture.

    The reports you generate in OUTRIGGER BALANCE are formatted for business brokers, buyers in due diligence, and OUTRIGGER HORIZON for valuation. One platform, multiple uses.

  • Strategy without numbers is just opinion.

    When your team, your CPA, or your advisor needs to see the financial picture, OUTRIGGER BALANCE generates a clean, current report on demand. No scrambling. No outdated spreadsheets.

“The ama is what keeps the canoe upright when conditions change. Without it, the hull capsizes. Without real cash flow visibility, the business capsizes the same way.”

Visibility
Most operational inefficiency hides in plain sight without real time financial visibility. The data is there. The view is not.
Clarity
When the team knows the cash picture, decisions get made faster, with less back and forth, and with fewer surprises.

Built-In Scenario Modeling

Run any scenario. See the cash impact before you commit.

OUTRIGGER BALANCE · Scenario Modeling
What happens to my runway if the Acme deal slips 60 days?
Runway impact: Your current 112 day runway drops to 74 days if Acme closes in 60 days instead of this month. You would cross below your 90 day alert threshold in approximately 3 weeks. Recommended action: Accelerate one of your two warm pipeline deals or reduce discretionary spend by $8,400 this month to maintain your buffer.
If I hire two engineers at $95K each, what does my burn look like in Q3?
Adding two engineers at $95K increases your monthly burn by $15,833. At current revenue trajectory, your Q3 cash position would be $184K, above your $150K floor. If revenue growth slows to 5% this quarter, you would hit the floor in month 11. I can model a slower hire scenario if you want to see the comparison.
