A useful starting prompt
Try this with your provider in the full model:
Inspect the available revenue methods. Explain whether price × volume or revenue per FTE best matches my assumptions.
Choose a revenue logic before changing a number
AI can help compare a top-down growth forecast with a bottom-up operating plan. A price-and-volume model expresses different assumptions from customers and ARPU. A revenue-per-FTE model can test whether a staffing plan supports the sales target.
The existing BalanceCheat drivers own these relationships. Your AI selects from available methods and edits supported inputs; it does not replace the revenue calculation with generated code.
Make capacity and pricing assumptions inspectable
Ask your AI to identify the component, method and forecast year for every proposed edit. With linked staffing, an FTE change can affect both personnel cost and revenue. Review that direct staffing input and inspect its downstream effects on margin and cash.
A useful prompt supplies the business constraints: expected price changes, customer retention, capacity, and when new staff contribute. If those details are missing, clarify them before committing to a forecast.
Bring Your Own AI
Connect a compatible AI client to work with a structured financial model. ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini offer external connections where their product, region and plan allow them. Your own API key remains an advanced option for chat inside BalanceCheat. BalanceCheat provides the calculation engine; your connected AI provides the intelligence.
Your financial model stays stored in your browser. When you use AI, your prompt and the requested model context are sent to your provider. The relay does not retain provider keys. External connections temporarily hold tool requests and results while your browser executes them.
