Quick-start guides
Get up and running with the key features.
Setting up your first scenario
Enter your date of birth, retirement age, and pension details. Isaac builds your projection instantly. Start with one scenario, then duplicate it to compare alternatives.
Adding your pensions
Add DC pensions (with pot value, contributions, and growth rate), DB pensions (with guaranteed income), and configure your State Pension based on NI qualifying years.
Drawdown strategies
Choose flexible drawdown, full annuity, or a blended approach. Configure annuity rates, purchase age, and escalation to model what suits you best.
Spending phases & big purchases
Model how your spending changes through retirement. Set different amounts for active, mid, and later years, then add one-off costs like a new car or home renovation.
Partner planning
Include your partner’s pensions, State Pension, and retirement age. Isaac models combined spending, individual tax, and proportional drawdowns for both of you.
Property, ISAs & extra income
Add properties with downsizing plans, ISA balances with annual contributions, and extra income streams like rental income, freelance work, or part-time earnings.
Tax customisation
Select England or Scotland tax bands. Choose whether bands are frozen, partially frozen, or rise with inflation. Isaac handles the personal allowance taper above £100k automatically.
Tax-free lump sum
Choose between Upfront (PCLS), Gradual (UFPLS), or Hybrid methods. Isaac tracks the £268,275 HMRC lump sum allowance and warns you if you exceed the 25% limit.
PDF reports
Export a professional A4 report with projection charts, income breakdown, event timeline, and year-by-year tables. Perfect for sharing with a financial adviser or keeping for your records.
Comparing scenarios
Duplicate any scenario and change one variable at a time — retirement age, spending, contributions, or drawdown method. The dashboard shows side-by-side comparisons to help you decide.
Earliest retirement age
Isaac’s solver searches across retirement ages to find the earliest point where your money lasts to your target age. Tap the result to apply it to your scenario.
Premium & promo codes
Upgrade to Premium for £79.99/year or £7.99/month. Enter a promo code in the Account tab for employer access, founder perks, or discounts. Manage your subscription from Account > Manage Subscription.
