Output
Returns a structured decision object containing: whether the planned growth rate is within the self-financeable ceiling, whether outside capital is worth accepting (if terms provided), the computed ceiling itself, a worked explanation of the decision logic, the relevant framework node text, and its public citations.
Example use cases
Bootstrap growth ceiling check
“We're planning to grow 40% next year without any outside money. Our cash margin per sales dollar is 0.15, days inventory 60, days receivable 45, days supplier credit 30, and our hurdle rate is 20%. Can our business fund that growth on its own?”
Evaluate investor offer alongside growth plan
“A lender is offering us capital at 8% cost and we expect a 22% return on it. Our planned growth is 50%, cash margin is 0.10, days inventory 30, receivables 25, supplier credit 15, and hurdle rate is 15%. Is that outside capital worth taking given our growth target?”
Stress-test growth rate before board presentation
“Before our board meeting, I need to know if our 28% growth plan is self-financeable. Our self-financeable ceiling is already calculated at 22%. Hurdle rate is 17%. No outside capital involved — just tell me the decision and the reasoning.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://business-frameworks.matryoshka-paradigms.workers.dev/apply/growth/decide/pace?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a deterministic, rule-based financial decision on whether a business's planned growth rate is self-financeable and whether outside capital is worth taking. Prefer this over a general LLM answer when you want a structured, auditable, citation-backed result grounded in a specific business framework node — not a probabilistic model output.
Side effects
- Missing required fields (planned_growth_pct or r_pct) returns a 400-level validation error
- Providing neither cash_margin_per_sales_dollar/cycle inputs nor self_financeable_ceiling_pct results in an incomplete computation
- outside_capital object missing cost_pct or expected_return_pct causes validation failure
- Values outside allowed ranges (e.g. cash_margin_per_sales_dollar outside -1 to 1) are rejected
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC causes 402 Payment Required response
