How to Recalculate
To recalculate budgets using the model:
cd models
# MVP Foundation (3 months)
go run ./cmd budget params.yaml --duration 3 --phase MVP-Foundation --format csv
# MVP+ (6 months)
go run ./cmd budget params.yaml --duration 6 --phase MVP+ --format csv
# Full Program (18 months)
go run ./cmd budget params.yaml --duration 18 --phase Full --format csv
# Get detailed team structure
go run ./cmd calculate params.yaml | jq '.years[0].costs.team'
# Get all year costs
go run ./cmd calculate params.yaml | jq '.years[] | {year, costs: .costs}'
Key Changes from Manual Budgets
| Variant | Manual Budget | Model Calculated | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| MVP Foundation (3m) | €400k | €152.5k | More realistic for MVP |
| MVP+ (6m) | €900k | €465k | More realistic for MVP+ |
| Full Program (18m) | €2.5M | €1.815M | More accurate calculation |
Note: Model calculations are based on actual team structure and cost calculations, making them more accurate for funding applications.
