    "description": "Undrawn capacity remaining on existing venture debt facilities. Optionality the company can call on quickly without re-pricing. Common pitfall: availability is conditional — most facilities require continued covenant compliance, and an available line can be pulled or frozen by the lender if cash, ARR, or other covenants slip (per the Bessemer venture-debt content and Battery Ventures primer). The board should treat `venture_debt_available` as a soft commitment, not a hard one, until drawn.",

    "formula": "venture_debt_available = total_facility_committed − venture_debt_drawn − amounts no longer drawable (covenant restrictions, time-window expirations).",
    "whyItMatters": "Strategic optionality — drawable capacity is a buffer for unexpected burn or a bridge to the next round. But it is contingent on staying inside covenants, so the board needs both this number and `venture_debt_covenant_status`.",
    "interpretationGuidance": "Available capacity of 3–6 months of net burn provides meaningful optionality. Less than ~1 month of burn in availability rarely justifies the facility complexity. Watch for facilities with expiring draw windows — undrawn capacity that vanishes on a calendar date.",
