Really happy with Projection Lab in this space. Although it's not open source, it is self-hostable if you pay for their lifetime access. The developer continues to update it, and has pretty much all the features I want for managing retirement projections.



Oh hey, thanks! Working hard to make PL a little better every day :)


Just wanted to say thanks for bringing this up! So far it is a really interesting tool for me, as someone too lazy to find a proper financial planner


ProjectionLab is great, it's been fun to watch it grow over the last few years!


As someone who has used it, would you say the lifetime option is worth $800? That seems really steep. It wouldn’t pay itself off over monthly for over 7 years.


Is it specifically for the north American financial market / system?


No not from what I recall.

It supported most UK scenarios but I felt like it never got personal taxes quite right. It seemed to be out by about 2-4%

But maybe I didn't fully understand it, partly because of the way it calculates it as a repayment in the following year (our income taxes are deducted at source and paid monthly)


another lifetime subscriber here, highly recommend!
