## About

Runway on a lit panel. Ask a what-if in plain words and the forecast bends away from the plan; switch to Range and the line becomes a swarm of likely futures, and the runway a range.

## Details

- The headline is months of runway; beside it, the month the cash runs out and how much sooner or later that is than the plan.
- The chart is the one sharp object: the past fades in from the edge, the forecast is printed in grain ink, and the month it runs out is a red deadline with the months after it hatched.
- Range draws forty possible futures that follow the forecast, a column of dots a month with the band eight in ten fall inside, and gives the runway and the out-of-cash month as a range.
- Type a what-if and the parts your model understands light up as you go. It says what it’s doing, can be stopped, and asks which one when a name matches two customers.
- What-ifs stack like a feed, the newest on top, each with what it alone does to the runway; point at the stack and it fans out so any can be switched off.
- Hold to adopt: the plan line comes down to meet the forecast and seats with a click. One size in every state, in both themes; look="plain" uses a flat fill.
