Share Calculator Results Instantly: Across All Our Tools

Why This Feature Matters For Real Financial Decisions

Most money decisions are collaborative. Even when one person does the first calculation, the final call usually involves someone else: a partner, accountant, broker, parent, friend, or colleague. Before this release, it was easy to lose context between people. You could share a headline number, but not the assumptions behind it.

That creates bad decisions. A mortgage payment estimate means very little if the term, fees, and overpayment assumptions are hidden. A tax estimate can mislead if the selected region, student loan plan, or pension method is unknown. A pension forecast can look optimistic if someone does not realize the growth rate or retirement age was aggressive.

Shareable links solve that by making assumptions portable. You are not just sharing an outcome. You are sharing the full model.

How To Use The Share Link Feature In 30 Seconds

1. Open any calculator and enter your numbers.
2. Click Generate Shareable Link in the page header.
3. Paste the link into email, WhatsApp, Slack, or notes.
4. The recipient opens it and sees the same scenario prefilled.
5. They can then adjust assumptions to test alternatives side by side.

It is intentionally simple, because financial planning already has enough friction.

Adviser or broker pre-meeting workflow

Instead of sending fragmented notes, send 2 to 4 links covering your key scenarios. For example: salary baseline, mortgage option A, mortgage option B, and pension affordability case. This cuts meeting setup time and keeps discussion focused on strategy.
