💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Building financial models without structured scoping leads to missed requirements, costly rework, and deliverables that fail to meet stakeholder decision-making needs, especially for complex industry-specific models.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Interactive Multi-Round Requirements Gathering: Conducts tailored conversations to capture business context, model purpose, audience, and decision needs, avoiding generic one-size-fits-all questioning.
  • Industry-Specific Guidance: Suggests standard revenue drivers, cost structures, key metrics, and common pitfalls for 9 industries (mining, energy, real estate, SaaS, etc.) the user may not have considered.
  • Effort Estimation & Quoting: Optional sub-skill that calculates build time, QA hours, and fee ranges based on model complexity, section count, and applicable multipliers.
  • Use Case: A user building a project finance model for a renewable energy asset can get guided questions about PPA terms, CapEx scheduling, and debt sculpting, plus a realistic time and cost estimate before starting construction.

Quick Start

Tell the skill you need to scope a new financial model for your renewable energy project, and it will guide you through a structured conversation to capture all requirements and provide an effort estimate if requested.
