Financeintermediate

What this does

  • Ties out the starting cash balance against the bank and Stripe every week
  • Rolls inflows and outflows across 13 weeks into one opening-to-closing view
  • Re-sums every weekly closing balance before publishing, so nothing goes out wrong
  • Alerts immediately if any week's closing balance turns negative or too low

Workflow

  1. Trigger

    Every Monday, 6:00 AM

    Before the week's first cash check-in.

  2. Prompt

    Pull cash inflows

    Stripe payouts and receivables due in the next 13 weeks.

  3. Prompt

    Pull cash outflows

    Scheduled payables, payroll, and recurring spend from the ledger.

  4. Result

    Publish and alert

    View updates; Slack alert fires if any week goes negative.
