It's the fastest way to pressure-test an idea, align stakeholders, and decide whether to move forward — without the overhead of building a complete business plan from scratch.Market Research gives business owners access to real industry data to size their market opportunity, benchmark against competitors, and build a strategy backed by facts rather than assumptions. Walk into any investor or lender meeting with credible numbers already built into your plan.From there, LivePlan's step-by-step business plan builder and AI writing assistant — trained on thousands of successful plans and 30+ years of planning expertise — helps entrepreneurs create investor-ready plans and SBA-approved documents in hours, not days.Financial Forecasting eliminates complex spreadsheets with automated, formula-driven projections. Sync QuickBooks or Xero to pull real accounting data directly into LivePlan, then track performance on a live Dashboard that automatically generates charts and graphs for easy stakeholder reporting.Plan Review and the AI Monthly Review take performance tracking to the next level. Each month, LivePlan's AI automatically analyzes your financial forecast against your actual results pulled directly from QuickBooks or Xero — identifying where revenue, expenses, or cash flow are diverging from your plan. Instead of manually reconciling spreadsheets, business owners receive a clear, plain-language breakdown of what's on track, what's off, and what needs attention — so they can make faster, more confident decisions and course-correct before small gaps become costly problems.LivePl

Live Plan team responded to my query promptly, with such unmatched service. I communicated with them via live chat and through their email address. In all instances they were always willing to answer and respond to all my questions. I highly recommend their services. In 2016 I used Live Plan to do an insurance agency business business plan. The business plan was accepted by the insurance company and they eventually gave me a contract to market their product offerings. That's why I am back again in 2024 to enjoy all features of Live Plan. I love the premium plan. It has all the features needed to create a good business plan. Gaborone, Botswana

I prepared the business plan using the examples and aids in each step. The financial statements were pretty easy and the built-in formula capabilities helped a lot. I just wrote down what we wanted to do, and then I explained why. LivePlan prompted me with each step - and I saved the executive summary for last.

Intuitive, user friendly and comprehensive. You only need to provide inputs and the software will translate it into graphs and important data points. Genius

We often use LivePlan with businesses that come to us for assistance preparing business plans and financial forecasts. LivePlan works great in these situations where the client does not have experience in such matters. The LivePlan software can walk them through the process without a lot of coaching from us.

Thanks so much for your review Duane, we're happy to hear LivePlan has been supportive to you and the clients you work with!
Charlie D.
I like the format as to the sequence of sections. I would like more leeway as to adding graphs/importing graphs created in other software. And the Chat GPT is far superior than the AI enhancement tool provided.

Overall, I think LivePlan is great! It's super easy to use and intuitive and makes creating a business plan so much easier for anyone from a beginner to a seasoned business person. I do use the Nonprofit template a lot in my work and my one piece of feedback would be to update the instructions in each section to better align with nonprofits. The instructions are worded for businesses which is a little confusing and not as helpful for nonprofits.
