Burn Acceleration

Liquidity / base / 1 to 3 months

What it detects

Gross burn is growing significantly faster than net burn, revenue is currently masking a structural cost problem.

Why it matters

Small divergences ([redacted] to [redacted] points) are typically noise, timing differences, one-time expenses. A [redacted]-point divergence sustained over multiple months indicates a structural decoupling of costs from revenue.

Severity levels

  • MEDIUM
  • HIGH

Thresholds

Exact thresholds, formulas, and severity bands are omitted from this public view. The full methodology, with every figure, is available in the authenticated app.

How it connects

Any revenue softening directly exposes the underlying cost base. Runway compresses faster than the headline implies.
