Forecasting for your business using outdated, clunky software slows your business and it eats up time you could spend on action items to grow. Forecastr fixes that pain point.

Through Forecastr, you can quickly see your current revenue streams, expected growth, expenses and more -- so you can focus on the areas that need your attention the most. Because what they do is so timely for Startup Competitors, CEO and co-founder, Logan Burchett, and I went through the Forecastr platform together.
