Timing & shape
Month (M1, M2…)
Counting forward from now. M1 is Jul 2026, M24 is Jun 2028. The whole forecast runs in these monthly steps.
Lead months
The gap between paying for something and it earning its first dollar.The excavator's lead is 2: you buy it, then it takes ~2 months to deploy and land a contract before any cash comes in.
First revenue month
The month a venture earns its first dollar.
Ramp months
A new income stream rarely jumps to full size at once; it climbs over a few months.Web Studio's ramp is 3, so after its first sale it builds to the full figure over three months as you close more deals.
Billable days / month
Days the machine is actually hired and earning, not sitting idle. The single biggest excavator lever.10 days is patchy construction work; 22+ is a steady mining contract. Dropping the days also models rainy-season idle.
Money
Gross
Total money coming in before any costs.
Net
What's left after costs. The number that actually reaches you, and what every chart here plots.
Run-rate
Your current monthly pace, read as a yearly figure by multiplying by 12.A $21k/mo run-rate is $252k a year, if it held flat.
Capex
Capital expenditure: the upfront cost to buy or start something. The excavator's $28k is capex.
Your split / ownership %
Your share of a venture's profit.You keep 100% of the excavator, 60% of Web Studio, 50% of the truck.
Operator cut
The slice of gross the operating firm keeps for running the machine and supplying the operator. 30% on the excavator.
Maintenance reserve
Money set aside per working hour for repairs and wear, so a breakdown is already paid for.
Salary / expenses / draw
Your Akridia pay (in), your living costs (out), and any extra you pull from the ventures for yourself (out) instead of reinvesting.
Reinvestment
Reinvestment / flywheel
Plowing profit back into the next income-earning asset, so your earnings compound instead of just sitting as cash.
Buffer
The cash cushion you never touch. Reinvestment only spends cash above this line, so you're never left bare.
Pathway
The ordered list of what your surplus cash buys next, top to bottom.
Trigger
When a pathway step funds. "auto" means the instant cash clears the buffer plus the step's cost; a number means wait until that month.
Income source
Where a step's monthly income comes from."Excavator net" links it to your live excavator figure, so changing the excavator's rate or days updates that step too.
Auto-reinvest
The master switch. On (1) means surplus automatically buys the next step in the pathway; off (0) lets cash pile up untouched.
Other
Sleeve
A small, separate pot of money kept off the main forecast on purpose.The Kraken bot's $1k is high-variance tuition, not dependable income, so it never touches the cash curve.
Utilization / idle
Machines don't earn every day. Here that reality lives inside "billable days per month" rather than as a separate number.
