Cash Flow Forecasting
Cash flow forecasting
Knowing today's balance isn't enough — irregular bills and income create surprise shortfalls. ClearMint Essentials is a cash flow tracker built into a privacy-first personal finance dashboard.
What problem it solves
Knowing today's balance isn't enough — irregular bills and income create surprise shortfalls.
Who it is for
Freelancers, variable-income households, and anyone asking 'can I afford this next month?'
Why it is different
Forecast reads live data from imports and recurring detection — not manual row copying each month.
How it works
Step by step
- Open the Cash Flow tab for a 12-month projection.
- Recurring income, bills, and expenses drive the forecast.
- Add sinking funds, future one-offs, and a safety buffer.
- See your lowest projected balance across the horizon.
Examples
Model a $2,000 vacation in August, $500/month car sinking fund, and see March as the tightest month.
