Illustrative runway with today’s plan
What happens if you invest in growth?
Sample model. Choose a horizon to update an illustrative runway estimate.
Margin / Small-business fintech
An explainable finance workspace for tiny creative businesses, with scenario sliders and an AI-assisted action plan.
The problem
Small studios have financial data but struggle to translate fluctuating income and expenses into clear hiring, investing and savings decisions.
Product strategy
Immediate input/output coupling makes the model understandable. Forecasts highlight assumptions and distinguish projected from historical values.
Design decisions
Friendly premium fintech / lavender and ink. Make every slider response immediate and keep a versioned assumption log beside the chart.
UX research approach
Synthetic research: 7 fictional founder interviews, 12 modeled scenario tasks. This is a fictional scenario: no real interviews or measured outcomes are claimed.
Accessibility & responsive design
Keyboard-operable controls, visible focus, readable content and responsive reflow support this concept. Reduced-motion preferences remove animated scrolling. Physical-device and assistive-technology validation remain future work.
AI-assisted workflow
Prototype common what-if questions and an uncertainty band; test whether users understand where the result comes from. AI-assisted implementation is used for prototyping and iteration; product recommendations here are deterministic local simulations.
Proposed technical architecture
Next.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Stripe reporting adapters, isolated forecast services and a versioned scenario store. Illustrative business numbers; not financial advice or a real forecast. This architecture is a proposal, not a deployed backend.
Limitations & lessons
Incomplete data triggers assumptions and caveats instead of a confident prediction. No movement of money and no autonomous financial transactions. The next step is real user research, production data validation and accessibility testing before any launch.
Information architecture & user flow
- User changes revenue and monthly expenses
- Deterministic engine recalculates an illustrative runway
- Agent drafts risk-aware suggestions with assumptions
- User chooses which scenario to save
