GreyGoo is proud to announce the beta launch of Forecaster. Forecaster is a web app that integrates with Basecamp projects to generate revenue forecasts based on current projects and opportunities.

As a firm that helps startups and brands develop mobile and web app strategies, we found ourselves searching for a tool that would easily predict our own revenue based on current project load and pending proposals. Something easy to maintain, with the ability to create a one-click report to help us make informed decisions for business and resource planning. Because we use Basecamp for project management, being able to seamlessly include current projects was critical. When we discovered what we wanted didn't exist, we decided to build it and share it with others.

Forecaster couldn't be simpler to use: once projects have been imported and revenue and future opportunities have been entered, a data-rich forecast is only a click away. Forecasts can easily be exported and shared in Excel or PDF.

Forecaster is ideal for small to mid-sized agencies, freelancers, custom app builders or any service-based firm whose revenue is tied to client projects.

Future plans include additional integration with other apps such as Quickbooks, FreshBooks and other accounting systems to get fuller predictive views of financial health, along with possible integration with other project management platforms.

Create an account (it's completely free) and please let us know what you think:

(Please note Forecaster only works with the current version of Basecamp. We are considering adding support for Basecamp Classic at a future date.)
