All Jobs¶
Work in Progress
This roadmap page is still exploratory — we're figuring out the best setup for engineering collaboration. Structure and format may change.
A complete view of every job to be done identified across customer conversations, organized by priority and validation status.
Active Roadmap¶
These jobs are prioritized and actively being invested in. Position = priority.
#1: Apply percentage-based assumptions to forecasts while preserving underlying patterns¶
Stage: Skateboard (Validate) | Domains: Scenario Modelling, Cash Forecasting
Focus outcomes:
- Minimize the risk of overestimating collections or underestimating outflows
- Increase the ability to model scenarios quickly (e.g., -5% on collections)
- Reduce manual effort in creating multiple forecast scenarios
- Minimize the loss of weekly/daily patterns when adjusting forecast totals
#2: Configure forecasting models based on data quality and account characteristics¶
Stage: Skateboard (Validate) | Domains: Cash Forecasting
Focus outcomes:
- Minimize forecast errors caused by poor data sources (e.g., unreliable ARP data)
- Reduce time spent correcting forecasts that could have been configured better
