What would you like to understand?

Start with a question. Each free tool gives you an educational illustration in a few minutes.

Educational tools, not personal advice. Illustrations depend on your inputs and assumptions and are not predictions or guarantees. Investments can fall in value. Check each app’s privacy information before entering personal data or uploading a photo.

What are charges costing you?

Two pots, the same money going in and the same growth. The only difference is the yearly charge. Works in pounds or dollars, for UK and US accounts. Drag the sliders and watch compounding widen the gap.

* The 14% default is close to the S&P 500's recent annualised growth: about 13.5% a year in price alone over the 10 years to October 2026, slightly more with dividends reinvested (in US dollars). That decade was unusually strong and is not a forecast; returns vary every year and can be negative. Try 7% or 10% to see how the charge gap behaves either way.

Educational illustration only, not personal advice or a recommendation. It assumes the same growth and charge every year, money added at the start of each month and no withdrawals, and ignores inflation and tax on withdrawals. Charges you enter should include fund, platform and any adviser fees. UK figures use basic-rate SIPP relief; US figures exclude employer matching and tax. Works for clients in any country: pick the currency you invest in. The value of investments can fall as well as rise and you may get back less than you put in.
