Never blow a fixed-price budget again

Budget Burn TrackerKnow when a project starts eating your margin

Fixed-price work only pays if you stay inside the hours. This agent tracks logged time against the budget and pings you at 50%, 75%, and 90% before you blow past it. You find out you're overcommitting while you can still do something about it.

Why Accordio

Threshold Alerts

Pings you the moment burn crosses 50%, 75%, and 90% of the estimate. You react at the warning, not the wreck.

Projected Overrun

Takes your current pace and projects how far over the estimate you will land, while there is still time to change course.

Effective Rate Math

Divides the fee by the hours you have actually logged, so you see the moment a fixed price has quietly become underpaid.

Margin Protection

Catches the projects eating their margin before delivery, so you renegotiate or cap revisions while the client is still talking.

Per-Milestone Burn

Breaks burn down by milestone so you can see which phase ran hot and price that stage higher next time.

Scope-Change Trigger

Offers to draft a scope-change note the moment overrun looks likely. You get paid for the extra work instead of swallowing it.
