Financial Model & Runway
Founder-readable models — assumptions, revenue logic, burn, runway, scenarios, and capital requirements.
Sovereign Intelligence · SovIntel
Structure before serious decisions.
For founders, operators, and serious new ventures preparing to commit capital, approach investors, launch operations, or clarify the business before execution. Sovereign Intelligence produces business-structure reviews, financial models, investor-readiness materials, launch plans, and decision-grade documentation.
Structure first. Then everything else.
For operators building something worth structuring.
When to engage
Before the expensive moments.
CFO-grade models and decision-support documents without the overhead of a full-time finance function. Used by founders and operators ahead of the moments that compound or undo a business.
- Before raising capital
- Before approaching investors or lenders
- Before signing a lease or major contract
- Before hiring or commissioning the build
- Before family or partner capital comes in
- Before registering the company

Illustrative engagement
What the work looks like.
An operating concept across three partners and two jurisdictions — validated, developed, and structured for launch.
Synthesise the partners' working idea into a defined commercial model — pricing, deliverables, unit economics, and viability. Build the financial model. Structure ownership and funding scenarios. Define operating roles and a staged execution roadmap. Outcome: a business with a defensible structure, ready to execute and ready to raise.
