Four key differentiators

Where the gap is widest

Each one is a concrete cash flow forecasting difference.

CASH FIRST

Cash first, not three statements

Cash Flow Frog is built around the cash forecast and the questions it answers: payroll, bills, tax.

Futrli models three linked statements, which is more setup and suited to advisers.

DRILL-DOWN FORECAST

Drill to the invoice and the bill

Every forecast figure opens three levels deep to the source document.

Futrli works to GL and tracking-code level.

MORE PLATFORMS

Runs on more platforms

Connect QuickBooks Desktop, Sage Intacct, Zoho Books, Odoo, FreshBooks, or bank feeds, alongside Xero and QuickBooks Online.

Futrli covers Xero, QuickBooks Online, Sage, MYOB Acumatica.

EASE OF USE

Owners can run it too

The forecast is made to be read without a finance background, so the owner and the accountant work from the same view.

Futrli is best used by accountants and has a steeper learning curve.

FOR ACCOUNTANTS & BOOKKEEPERS

A forecasting layer for every client

Built for practices that run cash flow for many clients.

One dashboard, every client

Whatever software each client runs

Depth for advisory conversations

Drill to the invoice and show planned vs actual, so the review moves from numbers to next steps.

Owners on the same page

A view an owner can read, so the advisory conversation starts from shared numbers.

FROM ADVISERS WHO CHOSE CASH FLOW FROG

What changed for them

Sourced from G2, Capterra, and Trustpilot.

“We needed a clearer view of cash week by week, without turning every forecast into a full financial modelling exercise. Cash Flow Frog gave us that visibility and made it much easier to see what was actually driving the numbers.”

Melissa T. · Finance Director, Consulting · Capterra

“The drill-down is what made the biggest difference for us. When something changes in the forecast, we can go straight from the number to the invoices and bills behind it instead of digging through reports.”

Daniel P. · Managing Partner, Accounting Firm · G2

“Our clients can actually understand the forecast themselves. We spend less time explaining the model and more time talking about what happens next — hiring, upcoming payments, and where cash could get tight.”

Rachel K. · Senior Bookkeeper · Trustpilot
