Short answer

When should I pivot my company?

The AI finds the intersection of declining market traction and your remaining runway. It identifies the specific window where you still have enough capital to fund a new direction. You'll see the following outcomes.

The pivot outcomes.

Where your data lands.

The AI processes your inputs into these four specific areas.

TIMING

The pivot window

The AI uses analyze_pivot_timing to find the gap between current burn and market exhaustion. You get a specific timeframe for when to act.

RESOURCES

Runway assessment

It calculates how much capital remains to support a new strategy. This tells you if a pivot is actually financially viable.

SIGNALS

Market traction trends

The agent identifies where user engagement or revenue is stalling. It flags these trends before they become terminal.

HUMAN

Strategic decision

The AI provides the data, but you decide the direction. It won't choose your new product or market for you.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

The AI handles the math and trend spotting so you can focus on strategy.

  1. Data ingestion

    Your AI pulls in your current burn rate and recent market engagement metrics. It builds a baseline of your current trajectory.

    analyze_pivot_timing

  2. Trend detection

    The agent looks for patterns in your growth or decline. It identifies if a slump is a temporary dip or a fundamental market mismatch.

    analyze_pivot_timing

  3. Window calculation

    It runs the math on your remaining cash against the speed of market decay. This finds the optimal moment to switch gears.

  4. Risk flagging

    The AI highlights scenarios where waiting too long will lead to insolvency. It points out the danger zones in your current path.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI pick my new business model?

    No. The AI identifies the timing and the signals, but the actual strategic pivot is a human decision.

  • 02

    Does the AI change my financial records?

    No. The AI only reads your data to perform calculations. It cannot write to or modify your spreadsheets or databases.

  • 03

    What data does it need to work?

    It needs access to your runway/burn rate and your market traction metrics, such as revenue or user growth.

  • 04

    Can it predict future market trends?

    It analyzes your existing market signals to find patterns. It doesn't predict external market shifts that haven't hit your data yet.

  • 05

    How often should I run this?

    You should run it whenever you see a significant change in your burn rate or a sustained shift in user engagement.
