1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using RunwaySnap (accessible at runwaysnap.com, including all associated pages, calculators, and software features), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must discontinue use of the website immediately.
2. Informational & Educational Estimates Only
RunwaySnap is an automated financial modeling calculator created to assist startup founders, executives, finance teams, and investors in visualizing basic cash runway scenarios, net monthly burn rates, and Paul Graham's "default alive vs. default dead" heuristic.
You expressly recognize and agree that:
- No Fiduciary Relationship: Using this website does not establish any client, advisory, fiduciary, or professional service relationship between you and the creators, owners, or operators of RunwaySnap.
- Simplified Modeling Assumptions: Real-world startup corporate finance involves complex, dynamic variables—such as delayed account receivables, one-off vendor expenses, seasonal sales fluctuations, capital expenditures, debt covenants, and taxes. The mathematical algorithms provided here are mathematical abstractions based on simplified user inputs and should not be used as the sole basis for executive or fiduciary decisions.
- Independent Verification Required: You are solely responsible for independently verifying all mathematical calculations and financial models with licensed professional advisors (such as CPAs, chartered financial analysts, or corporate finance attorneys).

- Use the site or any of its generated outputs for fraudulent, deceptive, or unlawful commercial purposes.
