### ProjectionHub

CPA-built financial projection templates.

- Pricing model: One-Time
- What it costs: Published pricing (projectionhub.com, September 2026): the individual industry templates are free, and the $119 template price and $197 to $297 universal tier are no longer on the page; the all-access portal is $499 one time. Services: SBA expert consultation $150; SBA pre-qualification package $500, which the page says carries a $250 credit toward the projections service; complete projections $750; business plan plus projections $2,500; premium bundle $3,500, shown against a $4,250 strike-through. Two further tiers carry no number: an SBA readiness review the page offers free off a form, and custom modeling by the CPA on staff, quoted flat rate per job.
- Best for: Buyers assembling an SBA loan package who need credible projections quickly and would rather adapt a CPA-built model than build one from scratch
