Income Lab introduced a beta version of its cloud-based software in early 2020 for financial advisors and planners. Small- and mid-sized registered investment advisors are the company’s target market.

Now fully launched, the software incorporates economic and market conditions, dynamic spending analysis, tax-distribution planning and automated plan monitoring and management. Income Lab charges advisors approximately $159 a month per seat.
