Unified Startup Enablement & Growth Platform

Your Executive Command Centre

Founder's Overview is a centralised command centre that aggregates your startup's health score, key KPIs, funding runway, and real-time alerts into a single executive dashboard. Instead of chasing numbers across spreadsheets, emails, and accounting tools, you get a complete, real-time picture of your business health — financial, product, team, and legal — in one place.

Research from CB Insights shows that 38% of startups fail due to running out of cash — typically because founders lack visibility into their burn rate and runway until it's too late. Founder's Overview solves this with real-time alerts, configurable thresholds, and scenario modelling so you always know exactly where you stand.

KPI dashboard with MRR, ARR, CAC, LTV, NPS, headcount, and product engagement

Startup Health Score — The Five Dimensions

Financial Health (25% weight)

Evaluates your cash position, revenue trajectory, and path to sustainability:

Cash Runway: 18+ months scores highest; below 6 months is critical
Revenue Growth: Month-over-month MRR growth rate vs. industry benchmark
Burn Multiple: Net burn divided by net new ARR — below 1.5x is healthy for early stage
Gross Margin: Target 60%+ for SaaS; 40%+ for marketplace; 20%+ for commerce

Legal Compliance (20% weight)

Tracks your regulatory standing across Indian company law, tax, and IP:

ROC Filings: AOC-4 and MGT-7 filed on time with zero penalties
Tax Compliance: GST returns, TDS deposits, income tax advance payments current
IP Protection: Trademark registered, IP assignments executed for all founders
DPIIT Recognition: Active recognition for 80-IAC tax exemption eligibility

Product Maturity (20% weight)

Measures how well your product resonates with customers and how fast you ship:

PMF Score: Sean Ellis test — 40%+ "very disappointed" threshold signals strong PMF
Retention: D30 retention above 40% for consumer; above 80% for B2B SaaS
NPS: Net Promoter Score above 50 signals strong product-customer fit
Roadmap Velocity: Percentage of quarterly roadmap delivered on time

Team Completeness (20% weight)

Assesses whether you have the right people to execute your plan:

Critical Roles Filled: Does every key function (product, engineering, sales, finance) have a leader?
Retention Rate: Monthly voluntary turnover below 2% is healthy
ESOP Setup: Employee equity programme in place to attract and retain top talent
Founder Alignment: Vesting schedules and SHA clauses protect against co-founder conflict

Infrastructure: Cloud architecture reviewed, security posture assessed

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Founder's Overview different from the KPI Dashboard? +

The KPI Dashboard tracks specific numerical metrics (MRR, burn rate, CAC, etc.). Founder's Overview is the top-level command centre that pulls from KPI Dashboard, Compliance Calendar, Health Score, and all other Corpfy modules into a single daily view. Think of KPI Dashboard as one instrument in the cockpit; Founder's Overview is the entire cockpit.

Does this replace my investor update spreadsheet? +

Yes. The Founder's Dashboard Report export generates a pre-formatted investor update with your key metrics, health score, runway, and strategic highlights. You can set up a shared read-only investor view so your angels and board members can check metrics in real time — eliminating the monthly manual update cycle entirely.

How does the runway calculator work? +

Runway = current cash balance ÷ average monthly net burn rate. The calculator uses your last 3-month average burn to smooth out anomalies. If you connect your bank account or accounting tool (Razorpay, Zoho Books), burn rate updates automatically. You can also run scenarios: "If I cut payroll by ₹5L/month, how much does my runway extend?" Alerts trigger when runway drops below your configured thresholds (default: 18, 12, and 6 months).

What accounting tools does Founder's Overview integrate with? +

Corpfy integrates with Zoho Books, Tally, QuickBooks, and Razorpay for financial data. Bank statement imports (CSV/PDF) are also supported for manual data ingestion. CRM integrations with Corpfy CRM Pipeline and HubSpot feed revenue pipeline data into MRR projections. Payroll integrations with RazorpayX Payroll, Corpfy HR & Payroll, and Keka feed headcount and payroll cost data.

How is the health score benchmarked? +

Your score is benchmarked against startups in the Corpfy ecosystem with similar: funding stage (pre-seed, seed, Series A), sector (SaaS, D2C, fintech, etc.), and revenue range (₹0–₹1Cr, ₹1–₹10Cr, ₹10Cr+). A score of 75+ in your cohort means you're well-positioned for the next funding round. Below 60 means there are material gaps investors will flag in due diligence.

Key Takeaways for Founder's Overview

Your runway is your single most important metric — monitor it weekly, not monthly:

Most founders discover their runway is critically short when it's already too late to fundraise in time. A typical Series A process takes 6–9 months in India. You need to begin fundraising conversations at 18+ months of runway — which means you need to know your exact runway number every week. The Founder's Overview runway calculator with 18-month and 12-month alert thresholds ensures you never get caught off guard.

A composite health score gives you a board-ready view in 30 seconds:

Before every investor meeting, board call, or team all-hands, you should be able to answer five questions in under a minute: How healthy is our cash position? Are we legally compliant? Is our product resonating? Do we have the right team? Are our operations scaling? The five-dimension health score gives you that snapshot instantly — and flags which dimension needs attention before investors point it out.

Compliance alerts eliminate the single biggest non-revenue reason startups get penalised:

Under the Companies Act 2013, missing ROC filing deadlines incurs penalties of ₹100–₹500 per day per director, compounding. Under GST, late GSTR-3B filings attract ₹50/day interest plus 18% annual interest on outstanding tax. These penalties are entirely avoidable with a calendar-driven alert system. The Founder's Overview compliance calendar pre-loads every deadline based on your incorporation date and entity type — no manual calendar management required.

Investor-ready reporting should take minutes, not days:

Many founders spend 4–8 hours each month compiling investor updates from multiple systems. With Founder's Overview, your investor update report is generated in one click — it pulls your health score, KPI trends, runway status, compliance standing, and strategic highlights into a pre-formatted document. Board members can also access a live read-only view so they're always informed between formal meetings, reducing the frequency of ad hoc update requests.

Strategic insights close the gap between data and decisions:

Collecting metrics is worthless without acting on them. The AI-generated insights layer on top of your data to surface non-obvious patterns — for example, identifying that your CAC has increased 30% over three months before it shows up as a crisis, or flagging that your LTV:CAC ratio is below the 3:1 minimum that Series A investors expect. These insights translate raw numbers into specific recommended actions, making Founder's Overview a decision-support tool rather than just a reporting dashboard.
