Built for groups, not single sites.

Two to ten venues share one bank rhythm and one payroll run. Ebbline forecasts each venue and adds them up.

  • Bistro, Noord

    €6,426

    Largest share of the low point

  • Wine bar, West

Each line is one venue's share of the group's cash over 90 days, on one scale. The four lowest points add up to €18,900, on Fri 8 Jan.

  • Bistros and brasseries

    Steady weekday covers, heavy weekends and a supplier bill most Thursdays.

    • Bistro, Noord
    • Brasserie, Zuid

  • Wine bars

    Lumpy takings and big stock orders, so the low point moves with the cellar.

    • Wine bar, West

  • Bakeries and cafes

    Early starts, thin margins and rent that ignores the weather.

    • Bakery, Oost

Questions finance leads ask.

How far ahead does it forecast?

Ninety days on the main line, built from your takings pattern and every known bill. The scenario planner looks twelve months out.

Where do the numbers come from?

In a live product: your bank, tills and payroll dates. On this site everything is sample data from one small model, so the chart and the copy always agree.

What is the cash floor?

The balance you do not want to fall below, such as two weeks of payroll. Ebbline marks it on the chart and says when the forecast crosses it.

How accurate is the forecast?

It shows a range, not a promise. The band widens further out, and the line restarts from the real balance each morning. This demo makes no accuracy claim.

Is this a real product?

No. Ebbline is a fictional concept with sample data, built to show how a forecasting product could look and behave.
