What we have not done yet.

SOC 2 Type II certification is on our roadmap and has not been completed, and we have not commissioned a third-party security audit. We would rather say that than imply an audit we have not passed. The full security position.

Original research, not recycled advice.

We run the simulations ourselves and publish what came out, including when the result is inconvenient.

Is the 4% Rule Still Safe? We Ran 5,000 Simulated Retirements

Is the 4% rule still safe? Flexible 4% lasted in 100% of 5,000 simulations; rigid 4% failed 1.1%. Full safe withdrawal rate trade-off table.

What a 1% Investment Fee Really Costs Over 40 Years

What a 1% fee costs over 40 years: we simulated 5,000 lifetimes at 0%, 0.5%, and 1% expense-ratio drag. The dollar gap is larger than the percentage sounds.

Sequence of Returns Risk: What If the Market Crashes the Year You Retire?

Sequence of returns risk explained: the same 40% crash dropped success from 86% to 71% at retirement age 65, but only to 81% at age 48. 5,000 simulations.

Frequently asked questions

What is Killion?
Killion is retirement and financial planning software you use yourself. It links your brokerage and crypto accounts read-only, runs 1,000-path Monte Carlo simulations against your real holdings, backtests your plan against every market since 1928, and lets you explore decisions with an AI assistant that can see your numbers.
Is Killion a financial advisor?
No. Killion is software, not a service. We are not a registered investment adviser or broker-dealer. We do not recommend specific securities, manage assets, or trade on your behalf, and account access is read-only so we could not trade even if asked.
How is my data protected?
Account connections go through SnapTrade in read-only mode: Killion can see positions and transactions and is technically incapable of trading, transferring or withdrawing. You authenticate at your brokerage, so Killion never receives your credentials. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. SOC 2 Type II certification is on our roadmap and has not been completed.
How accurate are the simulations?
Killion runs 1,000-path Monte Carlo simulations using a five-regime market model, so downturns cluster the way they historically have rather than being drawn independently each year. Runs are seeded and reproduce exactly. Markets remain unpredictable, so treat the output as a range of outcomes to plan against, not a forecast.
Who is Killion built for?
Anyone juggling multiple accounts, equity compensation, irregular income or a long-term plan. We see strong fit with FIRE planners, tech employees, doctors, lawyers and freelancers, but no finance background is required.
How does account linking work?
Through SnapTrade, the account-linking layer used by a range of fintech products. You sign in to each brokerage or crypto exchange once through SnapTrade. Killion never sees your credentials and access stays read-only. You can revoke it from Killion or from your brokerage at any time.
Where can I use Killion?
Killion runs in the browser on desktops, laptops, tablets and phones. Since v1.7.0 the dashboard, finances, budget, projections and backtesting are all laid out for small screens.
How does Killion compare to hiring a financial advisor?
An advisor manages your money, typically charging around 1% of assets a year — roughly $7,500 annually on a $750,000 portfolio, rising as the balance grows. Killion is software you use yourself for a flat monthly subscription, and takes no commissions or kickbacks. An advisor also does things Killion does not, including tax planning and behavioural coaching.
Does Killion model taxes or Roth conversions?
No. Projections are pre-tax and there is no Roth conversion, RMD or IRMAA modelling. If tax sequencing is your main question, Boldin is a better tool for it and we say so on our comparison page.
Can I try Killion before paying?
Yes. The first plan includes a 5-day free trial of the full product. A card is required; you are not charged until the trial ends. Paid plans also carry a 14-day refund window.
