Profit is not cash

You budget at the P&L level, but don't immediately see the impact on your balance sheet and liquidity. To link this in Excel, you spend days building formulas.

Data silos

Your forecast, actuals, and budget live in three different files. It takes hours of copy-pasting every month to see where you stand against the plan.

Lack of logic

Excel is a calculator, not a financial system. It doesn't understand what 'VAT' or 'Payment terms' are. You have to build and maintain that logic yourself.

Integrated Modeling

One adjustment. Immediate impact on P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cashflow.

Stop manually linking tabs. Liquid is a fully integrated financial model. Add an investment or employee, and we instantly calculate the impact on your results, liquidity, and balance sheet positions. Everything is connected, everything is in balance.

Always balanced: P&L, Balance sheet, and Cash flow update automatically.
Complex VAT and payment terms, calculated instantly.
Steer based on variables (like FTE or Churn) instead of fixed amounts.
Key Features
Model Workspace

Modeling with the freedom of a spreadsheet

You don’t need to learn a new language. In the Model Workspace, you use familiar formulas and build your own custom variables (such as 'ARPU' or 'Number of orders'). Combine the flexibility of Excel with the stability of a database. Build your model once, use it forever.

Powerful modules for your forecast

Why build everything yourself? Liquid offers pre-built modules for Revenue, Costs, Personnel, Financing, and General Journal. You enter the variables (for example, a new loan or employee), and we instantly calculate the financial impact – such as repayment, net salary, or social security contributions – directly in your P&L, Cash flow, and Balance sheet.

Always up-to-date forecasts

From static budget to Rolling Forecasts

Reality catches up with your plan. Liquid automatically combines your actuals (through last month) with your forecast for the rest of the year. This gives you an up-to-date 'Year-to-Go' outlook at any time, without having to copy cells.

Frequently Asked Questions about Budgeting & Forecasting

Yes. In our Model Workspace, you work with the logic you’re used to. We support the most common Excel formulas. The big difference is that in Liquid, you work with stable variables (such as 'Revenue' or 'FTEs') instead of fragile cell references (like 'C12*D14').

No, Liquid handles that for you. Because the system is fully integrated, every change in your P&L (e.g., additional revenue) has a direct effect on your Balance sheet (accounts receivable) and Cash flow (when the money comes in). So, you no longer need to

Liquid automatically combines your actuals (from your ERP software) with your forecast for the future. Is the month over? Then the actuals roll forward one month, and your 'Year-to-Go' forecast is updated immediately. So you're always looking at the most up-to-date outlook without any copy-pasting.

Absolutely. You can build your forecast based on drivers, such as 'number of subscribers', 'hourly rate', or 'FTE'. If you adjust the driver (e.g., from 100 to 120 customers), Liquid instantly calculates the financial impact in your forecast.

Highly detailed and automated. Through the Employee module, you enter employees (current or planned) with their gross salaries. Liquid then automatically calculates employer contributions, holiday allowance provisions, and pension contributions. This means you don't have to build these complicated calculations yourself.
