Prepare Your Spreadsheet for a Smooth Import
Before you dive into the TorlyAI platform, you need a tidy Excel file. Think of it as laying out your ingredients before you cook; crucial for zero mishaps.
- Standardise your column headings: revenue, costs, net profit, cash flow.
- Use consistent date formats: DD/MM/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD.
- Remove blank rows and avoid merged cells; they trip up any import tool.
- Label each sheet descriptively: “FY2023 Financials” or “Five-Year Projections”.
By organising your data, you minimise the risk of mapping errors. That means the Excel Model Creator recognises your fields instantly, avoiding manual tweaks later.
Step-by-Step: Importing Your Data into the Excel Model Creator
Follow these stages to get your financials into TorlyAI’s Innovator Visa Model seamlessly.
1. Access Your TorlyAI Dashboard
Log in at the TorlyAI portal. If you haven’t yet, create your account and complete the onboarding questionnaire. This sets up your user profile for Innovator Visa readiness.
2. Select the Innovator Visa Model
In your dashboard, click on “Create New Model” and choose “Innovator Visa Model”. This option is tailored to UK Home Office and endorsing body requirements.
3. Upload Your Excel File
Hit the “Upload” button and browse to your prepared workbook. The Excel Model Creator accepts .xlsx files up to 10MB. You’ll see a quick preview of sheets and columns.
4. Map Your Columns
The system auto-detects common fields. Check that:
- Revenue maps to “Sales_Income”
- Costs map to “Operating_Expenses”
- Net profit maps to “ProfitBeforeTax”
If something looks off, use the drop-down menus to correct the mapping. This step ensures your numbers flow into the right buckets in the Innovator Visa Model.
5. Review and Confirm
Once you’ve mapped each field, click “Review Import”. TorlyAI highlights any anomalies—missing dates, zero values or unmatched headings. Fix these in Excel or adjust the mapping rules directly. When all checks pass, hit “Confirm Import”.
Fine-Tuning Your Projections within TorlyAI
After import, your data appears in the financial dashboard. Here you can:
- Adjust revenue growth rates
- Modify cost assumptions
- Run scenario analyses
- Project cash burn and runway
The Excel Model Creator feed is live; any tweaks update your Projections Summary instantly. Use the interactive charts to spot risks and opportunities. If a line item feels off-track, the platform flags it and suggests action steps.
