Note from CEO:

Dear future member of Forecastr Tribe,

Forecastr is a high-growth, venture-backed startup on a mission to help Founders build great financial models so they can impress their investors and make better decisions.

We’re a team of highly motivated, diverse, and talented individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds and geographies. Our four Founders: Steven Plappert, Logan Burchett, Jonathan Frazier, & Steven Ambs have deep experience running startup companies, building startup financial models, developing complicated web applications, and designing user flows & user interfaces that delight customers.

We’ve been on fire since raising our pre-seed of $750k in Q1 2020 and going full-time. We’ve been accepted into Techstars, we’ve built a world-class GTM product, and recently closed our oversubscribed $2.5M Series Seed with investment from top-tier investors all over the country. We have 250+ paying customers, and rapidly growing MRR.

Our product is an online financial model for startups, served as a standalone SaaS solution, and sold on an annual subscription basis with a 30-Day, ‘White-Glove’ onboarding where we get ‘into the dirt’ and help our customers get a great, ‘investor-grade’ financial model.

We’re looking for talented, creative, & motivated people to join our team and help us drive our product into the market and serve more customers. We value confidence, preparedness, & work-life balance. We’re a down-to-earth, merit-based culture, we work hard, we play hard.

We’re stoked to meet you.

With Love,
Steven
