How we help

Advisors & Insurance

Independent advisors and planning firms that help clients prepare for long-term care and retirement.

The problem

Carrier illustrations contain the facts the client needs, but they are hard to compare and explain. Advisors copy numbers by hand, assumptions can be missed, and the client may leave unsure about the next step.

Why we understand this work

We build these tools with a practicing advisor. The software helps prepare and explain the plan, but the advisor remains responsible for the recommendation. It does not recommend products or predict investments.

What you get

  • Important values pulled from the illustration, with links back to the source
  • A required review where the advisor checks the values that matter
  • Ways to compare the timing, length, setting, and cost of a care event
  • A client report that lists the inputs, assumptions, tradeoffs, and unanswered questions
  • Research that finds the questions potential clients are already asking
Examples

Here are a few ways we have solved similar problems.

These examples are based on real work, but we removed names and identifying project details. We also tell you when an example is still being built or uses sample data.

Built for a client

A clearer way to prepare for care-planning meetings

A carrier illustration becomes a clear plan for the client meeting. It shows the care event being discussed, household resources, guarantees, tradeoffs, and what is still unknown.

  • Keep a link to the source for each value in the client report
  • Require the advisor to check the important values before the meeting

Turning public questions into useful outreach

Public questions and conversations become a useful list of topics for content and outreach instead of a general trend report.

  • Use code to count posts and remove duplicates instead of asking AI to guess
  • Keep a person responsible for deciding whether and how to respond
Why this project came first

We started by pulling the important values from one illustration. That led to a complete planning and reporting process.

The same manual step appeared in every case, the source document was available, and the advisor could check every important value before using it.

What we built first

We pulled out the important values, kept a link to where each value came from, and asked the advisor to check them before using them in a plan.

What we added later

  • Ways to compare the timing, length, setting, and cost of a care event
  • A client report that clearly lists the assumptions and unanswered questions
  • A final review by the advisor before the meeting
  • Tools to find and respond to common questions in the market

How we knew it was working

The advisor could trace every number to the illustration and prepare the client report without repeatedly copying the same information.

What improved

The advisor spends less time copying numbers and more time preparing for the client conversation. Every plan is easier to check before the meeting.

You do not need to choose the project before you call us.

Bring the problems your team wants to improve. We will compare them, explain which one should come first, and tell you whether custom software is the right answer.
