RunSmart FAQs

Answers to common questions about how RunSmart works and what you can expect.

How do you compare against other financial planning & analysis (FP&A) software?

Many FP&A platforms are built for dedicated finance teams and require significant setup, configuration, and ongoing financial modeling. RunSmart is designed to give business owners powerful financial intelligence and planning capabilities without the complexity of traditional FP&A software.
‍

Simply connect your QuickBooks account and RunSmart automatically analyzes your financial performance, generates forecasts and insights, monitors your financial health, tracks budgets, and produces professional reports without requiring you to build or maintain complicated financial models.

Do I need a strong background in finance or accounting to understand RunSmart's results?

No. RunSmart is designed to make complex financial information easier to understand, even if you don't have a background in finance or accounting.
‍

Plain-language insights, helpful tooltips, and an extensive library of help articles explain financial concepts and results throughout the platform. RunSmart also includes an AI-powered chatbot that can answer questions and explain unfamiliar financial concepts in simple terms whenever you need additional help.

Does RunSmart use AI to perform financial analysis or generate forecasts?

No. RunSmart's financial analysis and forecasts are powered by custom-built statistical algorithms and deterministic financial logic—not generative AI.

‍

This ensures consistent, repeatable financial calculations grounded in your actual business data rather than AI-generated interpretations or predictions.

‍

‍

What makes RunSmart’s forecasts more reliable than other tools?

Unlike financial planning tools that rely on fixed growth assumptions or manually maintained models, RunSmart uses advanced statistical forecasting algorithms to identify historical trends, seasonality, and patterns in your financial data.

‍

RunSmart automatically evaluates multiple forecasting methods and selects the best-fitting model for each financial line item, delivering sophisticated, data-driven projections that automatically update as new financial information becomes available.

‍

‍

Can businesses with less than 2 years of history use RunSmart?

Standard and Premium plan users can begin using RunSmart with less than 24 consecutive months of QuickBooks history. While financial forecasting will not be available until 24 months of historical data are available, you can still analyze your historical financial performance, monitor your business's financial health, review key financial metrics, compare your performance against industry benchmarks, and generate professional reports depending on your plan.


Once your business reaches 24 consecutive months of historical QuickBooks data, financial forecasting is automatically enabled. This allows RunSmart's statistical forecasting models to better identify longer-term trends and seasonal patterns, helping produce more reliable forecasts. The more historical data you have for RunSmart to work with, the more reliable the results.


Pro plan users require at least 24 consecutive months of historical QuickBooks data before using RunSmart. The Pro plan is designed for businesses that need advanced forecasting, scenario planning, budgeting, workforce planning, automated reporting, and other forward-looking financial planning capabilities, all of which depend on sufficient historical data to produce reliable results.

Does RunSmart support consolidations or class tracking for budgeting?

No. RunSmart currently supports financial forecasting and planning for individual business entities. It does not support consolidating multiple companies into a single financial model or budgeting by QuickBooks class.

‍

You can manage multiple businesses as separate projects, with each company's financial information analyzed and forecasted independently.

‍

Does RunSmart work without QuickBooks Online?

No. RunSmart requires a connection to QuickBooks Online, which is currently its only supported accounting platform. RunSmart automatically uses your QuickBooks financial data to generate forecasts, financial health insights, and reports without manual data entry.
