HARTFORD, CT, December 18, 2025 – IncomeConductor, the leading retirement income planning platform for financial advisors, today announced a major platform update that transforms how advisors incorporate annuities into comprehensive retirement income plans. The enhancement delivers the precision and tax intelligence advisors need to build strategies around both existing annuity contracts and potential future purchases.
On the IncomeConductor platform, advisors can now:
- Integrate existing annuity assets and income streams seamlessly into holistic retirement plans
- Simulate future annuity purchases and compare multiple product options within complete client income strategies
- Model lifetime income streams, period certain guarantees, and rider-based income options
- Assign Cost of Living Adjustments (COLAs) to any annuity income stream
- Project growth rates specific to each annuity contract, separate from other portfolio segments
- Model taxation of non-qualified annuities that compare exclusion ratios to “as needed” withdrawals
- Incorporate qualified annuity balances into Required Minimum Distribution calculations
- Illustrate how qualified annuity income streams may or may not meet the RMDs required on all accounts
“Annuities are a powerful income tool, but too often they’ve been modeled simplistically as static guarantees, not dynamic income streams,” said Sheryl O’Connor, CEO and Founder of IncomeConductor. “With this release, advisors can plan with precision, confidence, and complete integration, all within the IncomeConductor platform.”
The announcement arrives as the retirement planning industry intensifies its focus on guaranteed income strategies. Financial firms are competing to serve the $11 trillion opportunity in retirement income planning, with multiple technology providers launching annuity tools in recent months.
While some platforms focus on head-to-head annuity evaluation, IncomeConductor is built around actual advisor workflows, connecting annuity modeling directly to tax planning, RMD tracking, and comprehensive client reporting.
