Guesstimate

A spreadsheet for things that aren't certain

Visit Guesstimate

Guesstimate is a spreadsheet application designed for financial planning, strategic decision-making, and risk assessment. It uses stochastic models, Monte Carlo simulations, and sensitivity analyses to handle uncertain inputs. Users can create estimates by entering ranges (e.g., '5 to 9') and the tool automatically runs simulations to produce probabilistic outcomes. The platform offers unlimited free public models and paid subscriptions for private models.
