AI CFO Skill: Master Your Business Unit Economics

AI CFO Skill: Master Your Business Unit Economics

The AI CFO Skill assists businesses in understanding and planning their unit economics before financial commitments are made. It analyses vital financial metrics, such as profit margins, break-even points, and startup recovery time, by tracing each number back to user-inputted data.

What this skill does

• Calculates the revenue earned from one unit after direct costs.
• Determines real profit margins at a specified sales volume.
• Identifies the break-even point in terms of unit sales per day.
• Provides a month-by-month cash flow prediction for the first year of operation.
• Estimates required startup capital and the timeframe for recoupment of initial investments.
• Performs "what-if" analyses to explore scenarios such as price decreases, low sales, or increased costs.
• Outputs data with complete traceability to user-provided inputs.

Who it is for

This skill is tailored for developers and teams using AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex who need to assess and optimize business unit economics. It is a valuable tool for founders, financial analysts, and management teams looking to make informed financial decisions.

Use cases

• Startups determining the financial feasibility of new product lines.
• Businesses planning strategies for cost management and revenue optimization.
• Entrepreneurs assessing the financial sustainability of business models before launch.
• Financial teams validating investment plans through rigorous economic scenarios.

Technical details

The skill leverages Python scripts to execute financial calculations, utilizing input files structured similarly to the example provided (e.g., `founder/numbers.json`). These inputs cover parameters such as unit definition, pricing, variable and fixed costs, and startup expenses. The results are compiled into a comprehensive report in markdown format (`founder/cfo.md`).

This provides general workflow assistance only and is not legal, tax, accounting, or financial advice.
