What it does

Financial Unit Economics is an agent skill from nicepkg/auto-company. Use when evaluating business model viability, analyzing profitability per customer/product/transaction, validating startup metrics (CAC, LTV, payback period), making pricing decisions, assessing scalability, comparing business models, or when user mentions unit economics, CAC/LTV ratio, contribution margin, customer profitability, break-even analysis, or needs to determine if a business can be profitable at scale.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files (for example `resources/evaluators/rubric_financial_unit_economics.json`, `resources/methodology.md` and `resources/template.md`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Financial modeling and Product strategy. The repository describes itself as: 🤖 A fully autonomous AI company that runs 24/7. 14 AI agents (Bezos, Munger, DHH...) brainstorm ideas, write code, deploy products & make money — no human in the loop. Powered…

When your agent uses it

  • Evaluating business model viability
  • Analyzing profitability per customer/product/transaction
  • Validating startup metrics (CAC
  • Payback period)

Example prompts

  • “/financial-unit-economics”

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Fully-loaded CAC: Include all acquisition costs (sales salaries, marketing spend, tools, overhead allocation). Underestimating CAC makes…
  2. True variable costs: Only include costs that scale with each unit (COGS, hosting per user, transaction fees). Don't include fixed costs…
  3. Cohort-based LTV: Don't average across all customers. Early cohorts ≠ recent cohorts. Track retention curves by cohort (acquisition…
  4. Time horizon matters: LTV is a prediction. Use conservative assumptions. For new products, LTV estimates are unreliable (insufficient…
  5. Payback period vs. LTV/CAC: Both matter. High LTV/CAC but long payback (>18 months) strains cash. Fast payback (<6 months) allows rapid…
  6. Channel-level analysis: Blended metrics hide truth. CAC and LTV vary by channel (paid search vs. referral vs. content). Analyze separately…
  7. Retention is king: Small changes in churn have exponential impact on LTV. Improving monthly churn from 5% to 4% increases LTV by 25%…
  8. Gross margin floor: Need ≥60% gross margin for SaaS, ≥40% for e-commerce to be viable. Low margin means high LTV/CAC ratio still yields…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1252920. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Financial Unit Economics loads about 3.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 111 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,404 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~111
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,404 words (~3,445 tokens).

“Financial Unit Economics analyzes the profitability of individual units (customers, products, transactions) to determine if a business model is viable and scalable. This skill guides you through calculating key metrics (CAC, LTV, contribution margin), interpreting ratios, conducting cohort analysis, and…”
