Burn Rate is a budget planning tool for small Democratic campaigns. Track your cash, plan three scenarios, and see your funded-through date — so you never run out of money before election day.
14-day free trial · No credit card required
Most small campaigns budget with a spreadsheet someone emailed them in 2019. They build one number, never update it, and find out they're broke six weeks before election day. Burn Rate exists so that never happens to your campaign.
Burn Rate calculates the exact date your money runs out — based on your real cash, projected fundraising, and planned spending. If you're funded through October 22nd and the election is November 3rd, you'll know today, not in October.
Build a bare minimum, realistic, and best case budget. See what gets cut if fundraising comes in short. Know what you'd do with an extra $10,000. Stop guessing, start planning.
Burn Rate doesn't just add numbers — it tells you when your overhead is too high, your field plan doesn't match your volunteers, or your paid media won't move the needle.
Tell us your race type, district size, fundraising goal, and team capacity. Takes about 3 minutes.
Burn Rate generates bare minimum, realistic, and best case budgets based on your answers. You edit from there — not from a blank spreadsheet.
