Simulate before you commit.
HustleCheck is a set of business model simulators that help solopreneurs and founders test an idea before they invest months of time and money building it.
Instead of relying on static spreadsheets that assume everything goes perfectly, HustleCheck uses dynamic simulations to stress-test the messy realities that actually decide outcomes—churn, payout delays, refunds, inventory cash gaps, and operational drag.
If you’re building a SaaS product, an e-commerce store (dropshipping or inventory), a service agency, or a creator business, HustleCheck helps you answer the questions that matter most: Will this model work? What breaks first? How much cash do I need? What should I fix before I scale?
Why HustleCheck exists
Most early businesses don’t fail because the founder didn’t work hard. They fail because the plan was built on unrealistic assumptions. Traditional spreadsheets and “perfect world” projections tend to ignore the timing and friction that create real bottlenecks:
"HustleCheck exists to make those bottlenecks visible early—so you can adjust the model while changes are still cheap."
What HustleCheck does
HustleCheck is not a generic business plan generator. It’s a simulation and decision tool.
What it doesn’t do
HustleCheck does not promise guaranteed outcomes. Real results depend on execution, market conditions, and your inputs. What it does provide is clarity: a realistic forecast and a structured way to test assumptions.
Built for the real world: four business paths
Specialized simulators and assessments for the most common solopreneur paths.
SaaS / App
Model subscription growth and unit economics using key SaaS metrics like LTV:CAC, payback period, churn, runway, and the SaaS magic number. Stress‑test retention and acquisition so you can see whether growth is efficient.
Explore SaaS SimulatorE‑commerce
Forecast contribution margin and cashflow timing, including inventory cash gaps, payout delays, and refund risk. Understand when a store can be “profitable” but still hit a cash crisis due to timing.
Explore E-com SimulatorService Agency
Simulate growth under real capacity constraints. Calculate your true hourly rate after overhead and admin, see hiring breakpoints, and understand how client growth impacts margin.
Explore Agency SimulatorContent Creator
Estimate creator income and monetization paths across ads, affiliates, sponsorships, and audience growth—then simulate what it would take to reach meaningful income targets.

The core idea: simulate before you commit
HustleCheck is based on a simple principle: you should be able to stress‑test your business model before you build it. When you can see the failure point early, you can change the inputs that matter—pricing, acquisition, retention, cashflow timing, or operating capacity—before you run out of time or money.
