    Description, as the server wrote it
    Work out how many sales a month a business needs to cover its costs, and how many to hit a target profit. Answers "what is my break-even point?" from fixed monthly costs, price per sale and variable cost per sale.
  • forge_business_valuation_estimateEstimate what a small business is worth using Normalised EBITDA and typical small-business earnings multiples.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Estimate what a small business is worth using Normalised EBITDA and typical small-business earnings multiples. Answers "how much is my business worth?" from real figures — revenue, cost of goods sold, operating expenses, owner pay and a fair-market salary for the owner role — rather than a generic rule of thumb. Produces an indicative enterprise value range, not a professional appraisal.
  • forge_competitor_research_methodThe method for researching competitors or a market before committing money, and what each finding is worth.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    The method for researching competitors or a market before committing money, and what each finding is worth. Answers "how do I do a competitor analysis?", "how do I research a market before entering it?" and "what will an investor ask me about competitors?" — returns the steps, the six things a competitor publicly reveals, and how to turn a finding into a decision rather than a grid.
  • forge_ebitdaCalculate EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for a small business.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Calculate EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for a small business. Answers "what is my EBITDA?" and "what is my adjusted EBITDA after add-backs?" from real figures — revenue, cost of goods sold, operating expenses, and add-backs such as owner pay above a market salary, one-off costs and personal expenses run through the business.
  • forge_freelance_rateWork out the hourly or day rate a freelancer or consultant needs to charge, once unbillable time is accounted for.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Work out the hourly or day rate a freelancer or consultant needs to charge, once unbillable time is accounted for. Answers "what should I charge per hour?" from target annual income, business costs, working weeks and realistic billable hours.
  • forge_profit_marginConvert between profit margin and markup, and work out the price a target margin requires.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "convert": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Convert between profit margin and markup, and work out the price a target margin requires. Answers "what is my profit margin?", "what is the difference between margin and markup?" and "what should I charge for a 40% margin?" from cost and price.
  • forge_shopify_store_auditAudit a real Shopify store from its public pages and score it out of 100 for speed, SEO, trust and product pages.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "forge_shopify_store_audit" says "store": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Audit a real Shopify store from its public pages and score it out of 100 for speed, SEO, trust and product pages. Answers "why is my Shopify store not converting?", "how fast is my store?" and "what should I fix on my Shopify store first?" — reads only what a shopper can see, needs no login or app install, and returns the fixes in the order worth doing them.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
