Burn rate is the speed at which a startup or business spends its cash reserves. Gross burn is total monthly spending; net burn is spending minus revenue. Runway = Cash reserves ÷ Net burn rate.

💡

Tip: Target 18+ months of runway after any fundraise. It takes 6–9 months to close a round, so 18 months gives you one chance to fundraise comfortably.

  1. 1Add up all monthly outgoings (salaries, rent, servers, marketing, etc.) — this is gross burn
  2. 2Subtract monthly revenue — this gives net burn rate
  3. 3Divide remaining cash by net burn to find runway in months
Cash $500k · Gross burn $80k · Revenue $20k=8.3 months runwayNet burn $60k → $500k ÷ $60k
Cash $1M · Net burn $100k=10 months runwayTime to raise or reach break-even
