## Description

You shouldn't have to manually run complex financial models every time your fundraising strategy shifts. This MCP connects your AI client directly to the core math used in venture finance. Instead of guessing how much cash you need to reach your next milestone, you can ask your agent to run the numbers based on your current burn rate and target runway. It handles the math for determining target raises, predicting how much dilution existing shareholders will face, and identifying the best time to start your next round. Whether you're adjusting for a sudden increase in burn or planning for a specific expansion goal, your agent can provide immediate, accurate answers that keep your financial planning grounded in reality.
