Working capital cycle.
Deposit → balance → freight → customs → first sale. The plan models the full cycle in euros and in days, so you see when the cash is locked up and when it comes back.
The pillar that makes the lane bankable. Working capital, FX hedging windows, total cost of ownership — computed against the calculator-grounded plan, not estimated from a spreadsheet.
Finance is where the platform graduates from operations advice to money math. We model the capital cycle, the FX exposure, and the total cost of the lane over its full life.
Deposit → balance → freight → customs → first sale. The plan models the full cycle in euros and in days, so you see when the cash is locked up and when it comes back.
Supplier quotes in CNY or USD, balance due in 30 or 60 days, landed in EUR. The platform surfaces the hedge window and the basis-point sensitivity, so the FX desk sees the same plan you do.
Per-unit landed cost, blended duty rate, freight per kilogram, warehousing per pallet-month, last-mile per parcel. The output is the cost-to-serve, not the cost-to-import.
Quoted landed cost vs receipt at port, on every saved plan. Drift surfaced quarterly. Calculator-grounded actuals — the same number for you, the auditor, the bank.
Finance is in pilot. Working with the Founding 10 to ship the underwriting layer that turns the plan into a credit decision.
