On-demand hiring-plan what-if runway model
Triggered by a webhook with a proposed headcount and salary load, it re-models runway against live BigQuery cash data and returns a Coda comparison page showing before-and-after…

What it does
It answers "can we afford these hires?" on demand. A webhook submits a proposed hiring plan (roles, count, fully loaded cost, start dates). The workflow pulls current cash and burn from BigQuery, layers the new payroll onto the burn curve, and produces a Coda page comparing current runway to post-hire runway, including the new projected zero-cash date.
When to use it
When a hiring manager or founder is weighing a specific headcount decision and needs the runway impact fast, not at the next monthly cycle. Wire the webhook to a form or a button in your planning tool.
How it works
- 1A webhook receives the proposed hiring plan payload.
- 2It validates the payload has roles, counts, loaded cost, and start dates.
- 3It queries BigQuery for current cash and baseline burn.
- 4It layers the staggered new payroll onto the burn curve and recomputes runway and zero-cash date.
- 5It charts the baseline-versus-with-hires burn trajectory.
- 6It writes a Coda what-if page with the side-by-side comparison and returns the link in the webhook response.
