Insurance tool
Income protection benefit
Monthly benefit under the 70% cap.
Calculates the monthly income protection benefit available under the APRA 70.00% replacement cap, the after-tax position while on claim, and any gap against existing cover.
Waiting and benefit periods are part of the model, and a superannuation contribution add-on can be included so retirement savings do not stall during a claim.

Insights it surfaces
Alongside the numbers, the tool writes plain-language findings you can carry straight into the conversation. Example wording, from sample figures:
The maximum insurable benefit is $6,650 per month; existing cover of $4,000 leaves a $2,650 monthly gap.
On claim, after-tax income replaces 81.40% of current take-home pay once the lower tax on a reduced income is counted.
Every tool, every time
Rates and thresholds come from the verified Australian rate set for the selected financial year. Every run can be saved as a scenario against the client, exported as a client-ready PDF or an Excel workbook with live formulas, and carried into an SOA or ROA. A methodology and audit PDF documents the calculation, and every output carries the compliance block.
