Last week, we introduced Guardrails—automatic, dynamic spending adjustments that help reduce sequence-of-returns risk.

But markets aren’t the only risk. Retiring too soon, living longer than expected, inflation surprises, or simply overspending can all derail a plan.

That’s where SCANS come in. Scans let you sweep key scenario parameters (amounts, dates, life events) to test many “what-ifs” quickly to see how robust your plan is.  It’s one of MoneyReady App’s most powerful features—and now even easier to use.

We’ve added Canned Scans for common risks (longevity, survivorship, early retirement timing, and inflation). One click runs a full set of Time Machine scenarios. You can edit any canned Scan to fit your situation, then save your own for instant re-runs as your numbers change.

Got ideas for additional canned Scans you think would help others? Post them here!
We’d also love to hear about the custom Scans you’ve built and how they helped your planning.
