I help founders and teams build financial models, valuations, and investor-ready materials for fundraising, acquisitions, and strategic decisions. I’m Mani Rastogi, founder of Vibgyor Fintech. I work with startups, investors, and small businesses that need clear financial models, defensible valuation work, cash-flow visibility, and presentation materials that make the numbers easier to understand. Over the last few years, I have worked with 30+ clients, built 50+ financial models, created 20+ investor and business decks, and supported $20M+ in capital-related work. My work usually starts where the numbers need more structure: • Is the forecast realistic? • What are the real revenue and cost drivers? • How much runway does the business have? • What valuation range can be supported by the assumptions? • Are the financials clear enough for investors, lenders, buyers, or internal decision-makers? What I can help with: • Financial modeling Fully integrated 3-statement models, SaaS models, marketplace models, project finance models, pricing models, cap tables, scenario analysis, sensitivity analysis, and cash-flow forecasts. • Valuation DCF valuation, comparable company analysis, precedent transactions, startup valuation, acquisition analysis, M&A support, and 409A-style modeling support. • Fractional CFO and FP&A support Budgeting, forecasting, cash runway planning, KPI dashboards, board reporting, investor reporting, and decision-support analysis. • Pitch decks and investor materials Investor decks, financial projection slides, unit economics, use-of-funds planning, fundraising models, one-pagers, business plans, and investor Q&A support. I have worked across SaaS, AI, renewable energy, real estate, e-commerce, healthcare, hospitality, F&B, marketplaces, and early-stage startups. Clients usually come to me when they need more than a spreadsheet. They need a model that is clean, flexible, easy to explain, and connected to the actual business story. If you are raising capital, evaluating an acquisition, reviewing your cash runway, or preparing for an important investor or management discussion, feel free to reach out.
