The Old Way

“You have an 82% probability of success.”

A number and a hope. Not an answer.

The Income Lab Way

“You can spend $8,200 per month. Here's when that adjusts.”

Guardrails. Specific. Actionable. In the meeting.

One platform.
Every question your client will ever ask.

The 30-year retirement plan. This year's tax strategy. Next meeting's answer. Most tools pick one. Income Lab does all three.

Long-Term Plans

The 30-Year Picture

Not a probability. A plan. Specific spending amounts and the triggers that adjust them.

Guardrails-Based Spending

Not "you have an 82% chance." Instead: "you can spend $8,200/month, and here's the trigger that would change it."

Market Drops? Already Handled.

When markets fall, the plan adjusts. Show your client before they call you in a panic.

Social Security Optimizer

9,000+ claiming strategies per household. Highest-rated Social Security tool in the industry.

Stress Test Any Scenario

2008 crash. Dot-com bubble. Great Depression. Show your client how the plan held up.

Life Hub: The Full Picture

Every income source, expense, asset, and liability on one screen. The complete map clients understand.

Turn Plans Into Actions

"Should I convert $200K?" Get the exact bracket impact, optimal amount, and IRMAA fallout in seconds.

Medicare & IRMAA Mapping

What-If Scenario Modeling

Sell the house. Retire early. Start a business. Model any life change against the full plan in real time.

Distribution Sequencing

Which account to pull from, when, and why. Year-by-year tax consequences, not guesswork.

Estate & Legacy Planning

Beneficiary optimization, gift vs. step-up, inherited IRA strategies. Conversations that deepen relationships.

Verified math, not AI guesswork.

Beyond Planning

Income Lab doesn't just serve your clients.
It grows your practice.

The average advisor loses 5 to 8% of clients per year to attrition. The ones who keep them are the ones who bring value proactively, not just reactively. That's what Income Lab is built for.

💪

Clients Stay

Answer every question with Income Lab. Show them the plan is working before they ever need to call. That confidence is what keeps clients for the long term and creates organic referrals.

📈

Every Client Gets More

Practice Intelligence scans every household and finds what you'd miss. Not alerts about markets. Actions for specific clients worth specific dollars. Proactive advice that deepens every relationship.

Your Practice Compounds

More households means more intelligence. More intelligence means more opportunities. The tool gets smarter the more you use it. Better outcomes, better retention, more referrals.

What Practice Intelligence finds in a single scan

Opportunity Found

Roth Conversion Window

The Johnsons: $180K conversion in the 24% bracket. Window closes in 8 months when pension distributions begin.

Opportunity Found

IRMAA Cliff Alert

The Parks: $2,400 above the IRMAA threshold. One distribution adjustment saves $1,800/yr in Medicare premiums. Two-minute fix, massive client impact.

Opportunity Found

Social Security Timing

The Chens: Claiming at 67 vs. 65 puts $42K more on the table. Most tools wouldn't flag this. Practice Intelligence did.

Opportunity Found

Charitable Tax Strategy

The Thompsons: Charitable intent plus RMD obligation. A QCD strategy saves $8,200 this year. The kind of proactive advice that keeps clients for life.

No other planning tool finds revenue opportunities across your entire practice.
