The premise
Spreadsheet runway models hide human impact; AI translates the trade-offs.
What AI does well here
- Translate three cost-cut scenarios into plain-English impact summaries
- Flag which cuts threaten near-term revenue (sales, CS, demand gen)
- Surface second-order effects on morale, hiring brand, and key-person risk
What AI cannot do
- Decide who specifically to lay off
- Predict which customers will leave if the team shrinks
- Replace the founder's read on what the company can survive
