Why QuitRunway Exists

Career transitions are stressful enough without the added anxiety of not knowing if you can afford it. Whether you're considering quitting your job, taking a sabbatical, going freelance, or planning for a layoff, the biggest question is always: "How long will my money last?"

We built QuitRunway to answer that question with clarity and confidence. Instead of guessing or using complicated spreadsheets, you can visualize your financial runway across multiple scenarios in minutes.

Our values are simple: privacy-first (your financial data is never sold), transparency (no hidden fees or surprises), and user-focused (tools that actually help, not overwhelm).

Important: Not Financial Advice

QuitRunway is a calculator tool, not a financial advisor. While we help you understand your financial runway, you should always consult with qualified professionals before making major financial decisions.

Scenario Comparison

Compare Multiple Scenarios Side-by-Side

Model different financial paths and see how they compare. Whether it's staying at your current job, taking severance, or going freelance, visualize all your options on one interactive chart.

Compare multiple financial scenarios side-by-side with interactive charts showing savings depletion over time

The comparison chart shows how your savings will deplete over time for each scenario. Color-coded lines make it easy to see which paths give you more runway. Free users get 3 scenarios, while Pro users can create unlimited scenarios to explore every possibility.

What-If Analysis

Interactive Real-Time Adjustments

Curious about "what if I cut my expenses by 20%?" or "what if I add $500/month in side income?" Use interactive sliders to instantly see how changes affect your runway without committing to permanent edits.

Interactive what-if analysis sliders showing real-time runway calculations and expense adjustments

The what-if sliders let you experiment with different expense levels and income streams in real-time. See immediate feedback on how tweaks to your budget impact your financial runway. Perfect for exploring "what if" scenarios without changing your saved data.
