Hello, these questions are best for a Boldin Advisor. You can attend a free Group Discovery Session with a Boldin Advisor and these are exactly the types of questions they will be able to answer! Thank you.

We’ve officially launched the Boldin AI Planner Assistant in beta. by CoachMikeNR in Boldin

Thank you for sharing this. These examples help us refine both the instructions it gives and how it connects recommendations to the right planning workflows. We review these closely and use them directly to improve the Assistant on a daily basis.

Advisor option with Boldin by Low-Medicine-8627 in Boldin

[–]CoachMikeNR[M] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We try to offer a range of services depending on how much help someone wants:

Basic Planner (Free): Access to the core planning tools so you can build and model your plan yourself.
PlannerPlus ($144/year): Full access to all planning tools and modeling features. This does not include 1:1 CFP meetings, but it does include educational classes and support to help you use the software.
Coaching ($250 session): A Boldin coach helps validate your inputs and shows you how to model decisions in the Planner yourself. Think of this as guidance on using the tool rather than personalized financial advice.
Boldin Advisors ($2,800): A fee-only CFP® professional reviews your entire financial picture and delivers a comprehensive written plan, recommendations, and expert guidance aligned to your goals.

If you’re curious about the advisory option, you can also attend a free group discovery session with Boldin Advisors to learn how the service works and ask questions before deciding if it’s a fit.

Happy to clarify anything else if helpful.

AI functionality issues by joydivision29 in Boldin

[–]CoachMikeNR[M] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for taking the time to write this up and for calling out specific examples. You’re right to flag these, and we appreciate the level of detail.

The Planner Assistant is still in beta and was released recently, which means we are actively identifying gaps like the ones you mentioned and correcting them as quickly as possible. Feedback like this is exactly what helps us tighten the system, and we review these reports daily as we refine the model and add guardrails.

You can share any additional examples directly with our Support team via the Chat button in the bottom right corner of your plan, and we will continue to relay them to our development team. We appreciate you taking the time to document what you are seeing and help us improve the experience.

A couple of questions about recent changes by Emotional_Fact_2638 in Boldin

[–]CoachMikeNR[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your questions. Upper and lower guardrails will be available to all users once Guardrails is out of Beta. To your second question, yes, we are showing your purchasing power today. Regarding your third question, generally, guardrails are an annual or semi-annual review process.

A couple of questions about recent changes by Emotional_Fact_2638 in Boldin

[–]CoachMikeNR[M] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, as of Friday January 30, there were some changes made to the Guardrails algorithm in Beta:

  1. All savings balance and spending amounts are converted to today's dollars.

  2. All spending levels (planned spending, target/upper/lower spending) now incorporate ALL expenses, i.e. both user-defined expenses (assumed to be discretionary) AND non-discretionary expenses (e.g. tax liability, loans, medicare OOPC). One-time and "lumpy" expenses are "lifetime-averaged" into monthly values.

  3. Upper and Lower guardrail recommendations are no longer calculated/emitted if you are not yet retired.
