Life gap formula
Income years, debts, and goals are visible inputs. Assets and current coverage reduce the gap instead of disappearing behind a black box.
Household ready · Insurance
GlidePath's insurance room keeps policy breadcrumbs and adds a needs estimate: life income replacement, debts, and future goals less assets and existing coverage; disability essentials less after-tax benefit.
Many coverage calculators are built as lead forms. GlidePath keeps the work local: a transparent needs estimate next to the policy inventory, beneficiary notes, renewal dates, and household handoff context your family would need later.
Income years, debts, and goals are visible inputs. Assets and current coverage reduce the gap instead of disappearing behind a black box.
The app distinguishes taxable employer-paid benefits from after-tax employee-paid benefits so the monthly gap reflects spendable income more closely.
Policy type, insurer, renewal cadence, beneficiary notes, and document locations can live beside the estimate without storing policy numbers or passwords.
The estimate helps a household spot whether there is a planning conversation to have. It does not replace a full insurance analysis, underwriting, policy illustration, or professional guidance.
Boundary
GlidePath does not quote, sell, rank, or choose insurance products, carriers, or coverage amounts.
No. GlidePath estimates a coverage gap from household inputs and keeps policy breadcrumbs organized. It does not quote, sell, rank, or choose policies or carriers.
The simple estimate starts with income replacement, debts, and future goals, then subtracts liquid assets and existing coverage. It is intentionally reviewable rather than hidden behind a sales funnel.
GlidePath distinguishes employer-paid disability benefits, which are generally taxable, from after-tax employee-paid benefits, which are generally tax-free. The result is still a planning estimate.
