Considering buying more shares of that mutual fund you bought last week? FutureAdvisor will tell you if there are less expensive funds (both Mutual Fund and ETF options) that have very similar goals or holdings, and show you how much you'll save.
Wondering if you're saving enough for retirement? FutureAdvisor will do the math for you, and show whether you're on pace for your goals. What's better, instead of asking you how much you're currently saving (cause c'mon, how many people really know?), we will look at the historical contributions to your 401(k) plan to project using real data.
Wondering how you should set your 401(k) plan contributions? FutureAdvisor will look through your company's 401(k) plan options to recommend the best funds for you, given your current asset allocation and what your plan offers. If we can't because don't have data on your company's plan, we'll ask for your permission to request a brochure from them so we can.
We're still a very early beta product, but we're getting closer every day to being that know-it-all analyst [1] standing sitting at your kitchen table. You know, the one everyone wishes they had [2].

[1] Except without the suit.
[2] Okay, maybe not everyone. But when I was a teenager and just starting to figure out this whole investing thing, I thought it'd be really cool to have a finance analyst in my room to whom I could ask all my nagging questions. But instead, I had to settle for the library.
