   I don't want anyone to feel priced out of being able to create a quality plan for their future, so I have a discount request form under the pricing section :)

   Thanks for the detailed feedback! 1. Definitely looking to add more degrees of freedom to Monte Carlo scenarios over time. A couple examples: https://changemap.co/projectifi/projectifi/task/5736-flex-on...

   Thanks! I did spend quite a while trying to make the mobile experience decent, but if you come back I'd highly recommend checking it out on desktop; nothing beats that 4k monitor with all plan sections expanded.

   I'm using Vue.js, Vuetify, Chart.js, and Firebase, as well as some things like vuex, vue-router, threads, and dayjs, among other supporting modules. I also use web workers in a few places, e.g. Monte Carlo mode.

   An option to link accounts could help with one aspect, i.e. updating balances as they change over time... but I get the sense that it's a can of worms, and it seems like the larger incumbents that do that often have syncing issues anyw

   Thanks! I have loads of ideas for new features and things that will be fun to build; but I should probably at least take a breath sometime soon and contemplate all the possible paths. If you or others have any words of wisdom to share, I al

   This condensed several of my own musings into one well-reasoned comment. Do you think there's anything ProjectionLab could/should try to do with the concept of health-span?

   For sure, seems bimodal or even trimodal from what I've read. I don't suppose those tier 1's ever accept fully built SaaS projects in lieu of the usual interview gauntlet? ;)

    Could be me justifying my own tendency to ruminate haha, but occasionally "should haves" can be productive if you learn something that improves your mental model of the world. Either way, glad to hear you're prioritizing your

    I'm always hesitant to add more steps to the onboarding process, but you might be right that todays/actual currency is worth it to call out as early as possible. It's definitely a source of confusion for some, despite my effo

    Any thoughts on the path you might take to approach that? As a solo dev building this as a side project currently, I don't exactly have a huge existing network of connections in the advisory space.

    Glad you're enjoying it so far! For one-off expenses, I'm assuming you've noticed that the plan interface has all the expandable columns (accounts, income, expenses, assets, etc.), and that you can create new expenses on the

    FWIW, data already stays client-side by default. If you upgrade and enable saving, you can choose from localStorage only, cloud sync (i.e. not what you want haha), or manually importing/exporting JSON files. That being said, totally un

    When you say you "couldn't predict your own", what do you mean? You should be able to do everything possible in the free tier without signing up.

    I'm not actively working on this at the moment, but I'd definitely entertain the idea and be happy to help think through if there's a reasonable way to do it. What's your biggest motivation for wanting a self-hosted vers

    Sounds like an interesting model. I wonder if it would come with any regulatory hurdles in addition to the technical work plus efforts to make inroads with enough advisors... and then I wonder if there's a way to advertise that kind of

    Multi-currency planning is something I'd like to add better support for in the future for sure. Feel free to give this one a thumbs up if you like: https://changemap.co/projectifi/projectifi/task/5546-mul

    A good chunk of the features I mentioned in my OG comment here were inspired by user feedback; so if there are new features/views you'd like to see, let me know! Have you seen the Advanced editor yet that you can use to model how

    Anything you think I should do to make that today's dollars vs actual dollars distinction more clear? Oh, and paragraph 2 hit me hard. The countdown to 30 is... happening.

    Thanks for sticking with it despite the friction going from sandbox to premium! I did add a "clear sandbox data and restart onboarding" button a while back, but I'm not sure that hangs around if you go right from sandbox to b

    Good call, I'll try to balance out those descriptions a bit. Doing the whole onboarding, current finances, progress points, and plan creation process 10 times, evidently I converged on too many common themes haha.

    For 1: you should already be able to add a milestone which has tax consequences; there's an option on milestones that lets you redefine the overall tax setup when the milestone occurs. 2-7: all great points; I'd love to add more s

    The modal is definitely confusing, you are right! I used to have those stat cards direct you to the Current Finances screen, but then people wanted the ability to edit in place on the dashboard, so I had it open the section from current fin

    Did you see the help center / FAQ? I added that last week, so it doesn't have an immense amount of content, but there are a few things that might be helpful. For things like growth rates, I have more-info popups in a variety of pl

    Great point on the accordion; last thing I want to do is add anxiety! If you hover your mouse over the section you're reading, the countdown should stop... but perhaps I should get rid of the auto-advance altogether?
