The Retirement Tax Mapper tool suite was created in response to the questions we hear from clients and their financial advisors — “What happens if I do a Roth conversion this year?” and “How much can I take out of my IRA and stay in my tax bracket?”
We found that traditional tax software doesn’t clearly show thresholds, cliffs, or how different income types stack together. So we built visual tools that make those complex interactions easy to see and explain. Now we’re sharing them with other tax and financial professionals who want to bring the same clarity and confidence to their planning conversations.
