Why Runrate

Runrate is the missing layer in personal finance

Traditional budgeting forces real life into fixed monthly categories. But timing changes, bills move, and one surprise can make the whole plan stale.

Runrate turns recurring income, expenses, transfers, and one-off decisions into a live forecast of future account balances. People can see whether the days, weeks, or months ahead still work—and adjust before a problem arrives.

Questions

What prospective investors should know.

Start here, then ask us anything that would help you evaluate the opportunity.

Who can invest?

This initial intake is limited to prospective purchasers based in the United States. Only purchasers whose accredited-investor status is satisfactorily verified may ultimately invest under the contemplated Rule 506(c) offering. Individuals, companies, entities, and funds may submit interest.

Is this form an investment commitment?

No. It is a nonbinding indication of interest. It does not reserve an allocation, accept an investment, or obligate you or Runrate to proceed.

Why is accredited-investor verification required?

Rule 506(c) permits public solicitation, but the issuer must take reasonable steps to verify that every purchaser is accredited. A checkbox on this form is only a routing answer and is not verification.

What happens after I submit?

We will review your interest and may follow up for a conversation. Serious prospects may then be invited to complete verification with a third-party provider before any definitive documents are considered.

Can a company or fund invest?

Potentially. Submit the expected purchaser’s legal name and the person authorized to act for it. Entity and fund accreditation, documents, and signing authority are reviewed separately.

What if the round is full?

Runrate may continue to collect nonbinding interest for a waitlist. A waitlist position does not guarantee an allocation, and the issuer will not accept investments beyond the authorized offering maximum unless the offering is formally changed.

Important disclosures

This page publicly solicits nonbinding indications of interest in a contemplated Rule 506(c) offering. It does not accept an investment, reserve an allocation, or create an obligation for you or Runrate. The contemplated issuer is Runrate, Inc., a Delaware corporation to be formed; Runrate LLC operates the business today and will not issue the SAFE. The exact IP-transfer, predecessor, and affiliate relationship between the entities remains to be finalized before any security is issued. No securities will be sold before Runrate, Inc. is formed and definitive offering documents are available. Runrate may withdraw or modify the contemplated offering, or reject any proposed investment, in its sole discretion.

An investment in an early-stage company is speculative, illiquid, and involves a high degree of risk, including the possible loss of the entire investment. There is no public market for the securities, and one may never develop. Nothing on this page is legal, tax, accounting, or investment advice. Prospective investors should consult their own advisers.

The contemplated offering is intended to rely on Rule 506(c) of Regulation D and would be initially available only to prospective purchasers based in the United States. Any actual purchaser must have their accredited-investor status satisfactorily verified. All terms remain subject to final approval, definitive documents, and applicable law.
