How to Draw Your Path to Month 24

3 min read

You'll have a 24-month forecast from today to your month-24 Design, with each line growing on the curve you drew.

Before You Start

Where: the "Build" card on a Blueprint's dashboard. It opens once Invest is finalized.
Plan: drawing and generating are free. Your own results need a paid tier.
Done first: your tax profile ("Your Info" on Basics). Enter debt and today's cash on "Funding" for an honest cash line.

Set the revenue path. On "Build — How You Get There", pick a "Volume Default" ("Steady", "S-Curve" or "Slow Start") and a "Price Default" ("Flat", "Steady" or "Steps"). Each stream has its own Volume and Price cards to override them. Screenshot to come: Build page Revenue section with the Volume Default and Price Default buttons (build-revenue-defaults.png)
Draw the curves you need. Open any card and click or drag across the 24 months to reshape it. Draw seasonality here, such as a slow winter. Costs that follow sales volume aren't listed, because they track your volume curves. Screenshot to come: Build curve editor open on one line with a hand-drawn seasonal shape (build-curve-editor.png)
Generate. Click "Generate Projection". After later curve changes, click "Regenerate Projection". On the free plan, it opens "Example Results" with "Unlock My Results".

A Blueprint copied from My Business starts month 1 at today's numbers, with no seasonal pattern. Draw the seasons yourself.

Do I regenerate after every change?
Only after changing curves on Build. Saving another step updates the forecast on its own.

Why can't I generate?
Design and Invest must be finalized, and your tax profile needs a filing status and state.
