Business planning, guided
Step-by-step guidance, real financials, and a built-in review that reads your plan the way a lender or investor will. Whatever you're planning for — a loan, an investor, or just proof the numbers work — here's how the whole plan comes together.

Start
Not with a blank document or a template you have to decode. You describe the business in plain English, and LivePlan builds the plan around it — one guided step at a time, so you always know what comes next and never wonder what section is missing.
I want to start a local dog grooming business...
A shop, a service, a product, an app — describe any business in a sentence, and LivePlan builds the plan around it.
Market
A good idea and a good business aren't the same thing yet. LivePlan checks your thinking against real market data — 50+ verified sources, cited — and asks the questions you haven't thought of, while the answers are still cheap to change.

The LivePlan Method
LivePlan breaks the plan into small, clear steps. At every one you see what a strong answer looks like — so you always know what to write next, and when a section is done.
Plain-English questions, one section at a time, with guidance and examples next to every field.
Real industry data from 50+ verified sources, cited — so your market section survives the follow-up question.
Answer what you'll charge and what things cost. LivePlan builds the P&L, cash flow, and balance sheet for you.
"LivePlan has enabled me to not only build a cohesive plan, but also to think proactively about what should be included."

Financials
Step-by-step sections and plain-English questions — what you'll charge, what things cost — while LivePlan does the financial math for you. Change your price, and every number updates to match.
"I use LivePlan for running 'what if' scenarios. What if the bank takes an extra 3 months to finance? What if sales are way too strong? LivePlan lets you run all these scenarios very quickly."
Funding
Not every business needs funding on day one. If yours does, LivePlan's Funder Q&A reads your actual numbers and surfaces the questions a lender or investor will ask — before they ask them. Behind it: the SBA-approved format lenders recognize.
Over $1 billion raised by entrepreneurs who plan with LivePlan.
LivePlan · Funder Q&A
Month 7. Collections lag payroll after your spring hiring ramp, so cash dips to about $18,400 before fall bookings recover it — LivePlan flags the month and the driver so you can line up a buffer before it bites.
LivePlan · Funder Q&A
Roughly 9 months. Against about $21K net monthly burn and the cash on hand in your forecast, you're funded into next spring — early enough to raise on your terms, not under pressure.
"…helped us secure funding multiple times."

Management
A plan shouldn't stop at the pitch. Connect QuickBooks or Xero and see how the business you're running compares to the one you planned — month after month, with time to steer.
Your actual numbers flow straight into the plan — no re-entry.
Success
Everything above is a forecast. These three numbers are actuals — how many entrepreneurs have planned with LivePlan, how they rate it, and the guarantee behind every subscription.
