Xero cash flow forecastand budgeting, built on your Xero books.
Xero keeps the ledger. Connect it and Replafin reads the profit and loss and balance sheet by month, starts the model from the balances Xero holds today, and projects cash, burn and runway for the months ahead, with the budget, the valuation and the raise reading from the same numbers.

What happens next
What the forecast does with Xero
Twelve months of P&L lines and balance-sheet positions arrive as actuals, so the opening cash, receivables, payables and deferred revenue are Xero's, not typed. Each month Xero closes replaces a forecast month on the next sync; budgets and scenarios sit on top of that, and the variance between plan and actual is always against the real ledger.
Live connections refresh themselves when they are more than six hours old. Every row a sync writes lands on the changes log, and anything it cannot categorise with confidence waits for you in Review. The cash flow forecast guide shows how the months ahead are built from these actuals.
Questions
Xero, answered
Does Xero do cash flow forecasting?
Xero has a short-term cash flow view and budget reports. It does not run a driver-based model with hiring, pricing, scenarios, a projected balance sheet or a valuation. Replafin reads Xero and adds those on top, without changing anything in Xero.
Does connecting Xero cost anything?
No. Xero's connection is free, and an uncertified app can link up to 25 organisations, which is plenty for a firm advising several clients.
Does Replafin write anything back?
No. Every connection is read-only by construction: restricted keys, read scopes or a Plaid link that cannot move money. Replafin reads balances, transactions and reports; it never posts, edits or deletes anything in the source.
How often does it sync?
Live connections refresh themselves when they are more than six hours old, and you can refresh on demand. Every row the sync writes lands on the changes log, and anything it cannot categorise with confidence waits for you in Review instead of being guessed.
Which plan includes integrations?
All of them. Connectors are part of the workspace on every plan; nothing about the bank, books or payroll links is gated by tier.
Other sources: QuickBooks Online, Stripe, Mercury, Brex, Your bank, via Plaid, Otto HR, CSV or XLSX.
