Challenge brief

What you are building

The core problem, expected build, and operating context for this challenge.

Build an interactive web-based cash flow simulation tool using Vercel AI SDK.

Delivery guide

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates cash flow simulation output accuracy and working capital calculation.

Datasets

Challenge datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

simulation_calculated

Validates non-zero working capital gap result.

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

forecast_accuracy

Accuracy of cash runway prediction • target: 0.95 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.
