the retirement chat you keep dodging

Right, let’s sort your retirement out.

The workplace one. The old one you forgot about. Your partner’s. State Pension. Nobody puts them all together for you, so nothing ever makes sense. Isaac does.

Five minutes. One honest number. Then we’ll make it better together.

Look, it’s not your fault.
The system’s a mess.

What you’re currently dealing with
  • “Your pension is on track”... on track for what? Nobody ever says.
  • Jargon soup: crystallisation, PCLS, MPAA. Deliberately confusing so you stop asking questions
  • A projection PDF that might as well say “good luck, here’s a pie chart”
  • “Book a call with an adviser”... starting at £500, obviously. Cheers for that.
  • HR sent you a link once. You clicked it. Got confused. Closed the tab. Never went back.
  • That nagging feeling you should be doing something but having absolutely no idea what
What Isaac does instead
  • Shows you the age your pot runs out. Straight up. No sugarcoating, but no panic either. Just clarity.
  • English. Actual English. The kind you’d use explaining it to a mate down the pub.
  • Year-by-year projection with three scenarios. You can actually read it. Promise.
  • Plan as a couple. Both pensions, both taxed properly, one shared target. Teamwork.
  • Model real spending. Spend more early on, ease off later, budget for care. Life isn’t a flat line.
  • Already retired? No problem. Isaac works whether you’re 30 or 70, including if you’re already drawing down.
  • Choose your drawdown strategy: flexible, full annuity, or a blend. Model what actually suits you.
  • Monthly check-ins that nudge you to review your plan. Like a friendly tap on the shoulder.
  • Add side income, plan big purchases, model inheritance. Isaac handles the tax too.
  • ISAs withdrawn first, then investments, then cash, then your DC pot. Tax-efficient ordering, done automatically.
  • Export a PDF to show your adviser. They’ll be quietly impressed.
  • From £7.99/mo. Less than your Friday coffee habit.
What you actually get

Everything you need.
Nothing you don’t.

We only built stuff that actually helps. No gamification, no badges, no “pension score” that means nothing. Just proper tools that give you proper answers.

💣

The Number

Your pot runs out at age __. That’s the bit nobody else tells you. Once you know it, we’ll help you change it. That’s literally the whole point.

🗑️

All Your Pensions. Finally.

That workplace one. The old one from your first job you keep meaning to chase up. Your partner’s DB scheme from 2003. State Pension. Chuck them all in. We’ll make sense of it.

🤝

Team Planning

Doing this as a couple? Brilliant. Isaac models both of you – separate pensions, individual tax, one shared spending target. Proper teamwork, not just “we’ll figure it out.”

🏠

The Full Picture

Property. ISAs. Cash. That £35k kitchen you’re “definitely” doing at 68. Isaac models everything so you can see the whole picture, not just the comfortable bits.

🧮

Tax. Done For You.

UK income tax, personal allowance tapering, partner taxation – each person taxed on their own withdrawals. HMRC won’t forget, so Isaac doesn’t either. One less thing to worry about.

📉

Spending Curves

Model spending phases: spend more at 60, ease off at 80, budget for care at 85. Real life isn’t a flat line. Your retirement plan shouldn’t be either.

😰

“What If” Scenarios

Retire at 57? What if the market dips? What if you live to 97? (Good for you, honestly.) Create as many scenarios as you like. Play with them. Knowledge beats anxiety every time.

🎛️

Interactive Charts

Drag a slider. Watch the chart change in real time. Retirement age, contributions, spending – you and your partner, side by side. Honestly a bit addictive.

🧠

Contribution Changes

Planning to bump contributions at 50? Stop them at 63? Change employer match at 55? Schedule it all in. Life changes and your plan should keep up.

💰

Extra Income

Rental income. Freelance work. Part-time jobs. Passive income. Add every stream with start/stop ages and Isaac handles the tax properly – one less surprise.

📄

PDF Reports

One-tap A4 report with your projection chart, key events, and year-by-year table. Perfect for sharing with an adviser – or just proving to yourself you’re on top of things.

🔏

Your Data. Locked Down.

No ads. No data selling. No “trusted partners.” Encrypted, deletable with one tap. Your numbers are your business and absolutely nobody else’s.

🔔

Monthly Check-Ins

Once a month, Isaac gives you a gentle nudge. Review your numbers, update anything that’s changed, and keep your plan fresh. Two minutes, tops. Your future self says thanks.

🏖️

Already Retired?

Already drawing your pension? Isaac handles that too. Lump sum taken, State Pension in payment, annuity already bought – just tell us where you are and we’ll project forward from here.

🔄

Drawdown Strategies

Flexible drawdown? Full annuity? A blend of both? Model each approach with configurable rates, purchase ages, and escalation. See which strategy actually keeps the lights on longest.

🏡

Property & Housing

Multiple properties, downsizing plans, mortgage tracking – model when you sell, what you net, and how it feeds your retirement pot. Because a house isn’t just a roof, it’s a plan.

🎯

Inheritance Planning

Want to leave something behind? Set your inheritance target and Isaac works out what you can afford to spend while still passing on what matters. No awkward conversations required.

💳

ISA & Savings

ISAs, cash savings, investments – all modelled separately with tax-efficient withdrawal ordering. ISA first, then investments, then cash, then your DC pot. Smart sequencing, zero effort.

🇬🇧

Tax Customisation

England or Scotland tax bands. Band freezing. Fiscal drag modelling. Because “one size fits all” doesn’t work when HMRC treats Edinburgh and Bristol differently.

📚

Knowledge Hub

Pension types, tax relief, investment basics, retirement income options – all explained in plain English. Learn at your own pace without Googling “what is a SIPP” at 2am.

🔬

How Our Model Works

Full transparency on every calculation. Growth rates, inflation, tax rules, drawdown logic – see exactly how Isaac gets its numbers. No black boxes, no hand-waving. Just honest maths.

Looks good too,
obviously.

Five tabs. Your entire financial future. Designed to feel like an app you’d actually want to open, not a spreadsheet from 2004.

“I opened my pension statement once. Didn’t understand a word. Put it back in the drawer. That drawer is now load-bearing.”
– Honestly, most of us

Five minutes. Honestly.
We timed it. Twice.

1

The basics

Age. Pension pot. Monthly contributions. What you think you’ll spend. Four things. Dead easy. You probably know most of this already – you just haven’t put it all in one place before.

2

The “oh right” moment

Isaac projects your money year by year to age 100. Three lines: optimistic, base, and cautious. It’s the conversation you’ve been avoiding, but in chart form. And honestly? Most people feel better after seeing it, not worse.

3

Chuck everything in

That DB pension you forgot about. Your partner’s State Pension. The house. ISAs. Rental income. The kitchen extension at 68. Inheritance targets. All of it. Planning as a couple? Add your partner – Isaac models both pots, taxes you individually, and tracks one shared spending target.

4

Have a play

Drag the sliders. Change retirement age, contributions, spending – for both of you – and watch the chart move in real time. Create scenarios. Compare them. Choose your drawdown strategy. Keep tweaking until you find a plan that works. Export a PDF, brush up in the Knowledge Hub, and let monthly check-ins keep you on track.

Fair questions.
Straight answers.

How much does Isaac cost? +
£7.99/month or £79.99/year (save 17%). Less than a couple of coffees a month. Cancel anytime – genuinely, no hoops, no guilt trips. And there’s a free tier too if you just want a quick look.
Is this financial advice? +
Nope, and we’re upfront about that. Isaac is a calculator, not a financial adviser. We’re not FCA regulated. Think of us as the mate who helps you do the homework before you see the teacher. For big decisions, absolutely talk to a proper adviser – but you’ll walk in way more prepared.
How accurate are the projections? +
As accurate as the numbers you put in. We use your actual inputs, apply real growth rates, inflation, and UK tax rules year by year. We show three scenarios because nobody can predict the future – but you can absolutely prepare for it. That’s the whole idea.
What about my data? +
Locked down tight. We don’t sell it, we don’t show you ads, and we don’t share it with anyone. Your data is encrypted, synced to the cloud if you want, and deletable at any time. One tap, gone. No guilt trip, no “we’ll miss you” email sequence.
Why should I trust a retirement app? +
Healthy scepticism – we respect that. Isaac is a calculator, not a crystal ball. We show you projections based on what you put in, so you can understand your situation better. Use it alongside a proper adviser for the big decisions. We’re the homework. They’re the teacher.
Can I cancel Premium anytime? +
Yep. No lock-in, no dark patterns, no passive-aggressive emails. Cancel in your App Store settings whenever you like. If you come back, we’ll be here. No hard feelings.
What if I’m already retired? +
Isaac works for you too. Tell us you’ve already taken your lump sum, started your State Pension, or bought an annuity – and we’ll project forward from where you are now. It’s not just for people planning ahead; it’s for anyone who wants to know how long their money will last.
What are monthly check-ins? +
Once a month, Isaac sends you a notification to review your retirement plan. It takes about two minutes – update anything that’s changed, see how your numbers have shifted, and carry on with your day. Think of it as a quick health check for your finances.
What’s the difference between drawdown strategies? +
Flexible drawdown takes money as you need it. A full annuity converts your pot into a guaranteed income for life. A blend does a bit of both. Isaac lets you model each approach – with configurable rates, purchase ages, and escalation – so you can compare and pick what suits your situation.

The serious bit (we promised our lawyers)

Isaac is an educational planning tool – not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. We’re not authorised or regulated by the FCA. Projections are based on what you put in and aren’t guarantees (pensions and investments can go down as well as up). For proper decisions, always talk to a qualified, FCA-regulated adviser. We do the maths. They do the advice. Between the two, you’re sorted.
