DATUMAE / ACCESS

See the Estate.Design what comes next.

Discover Mode gives you a guided first study through the Datumae method. Design Mode adds room to plan for a household, test alternatives, compare structures, and carry the work forward.

Current status

Studio is still taking shape. Paid access is not open, and no payment is required today.

The mode boundaries below reflect how access will be organized as Studio development continues.

Discover Mode / Free01

See the Estate.

Build one coherent Solo retirement structure, examine its central pressures, and see the Range it produces.

One current structure · Solo · Guided depth across the complete method
  • Manual Estate and assumption entry
  • Core Build, Test, Shape, and Live experience
  • Guided income, contribution, and spending assumptions
  • Guided uncertainty settings
  • One standard modeled study and Range view
  • One saved current study with a free account

Design Mode / Opening Later02

Remodel the Estate.

Add household depth, automated context, broader modeling, alternative structures, and continuity across the full Studio.

Household planning · Deeper testing · Comparison and continuity
  • Solo and Joint household architecture
  • Detailed Estate and account relationships
  • Connected and automated context where supported
  • Full Datumae Blend and model selection
  • Broader Social Security path comparison
  • Remodel, Scenario Compare, and Blueprint Archive

ONE COMPLETE SYSTEM

The Method Stays Whole.

Discover follows the complete method once at guided depth. Design adds breadth within the phases, alternatives between structures, and continuity over time.

[ D + A ] × [ T + U ] = M → [ A + E ]
01 / BUILD IT

Establish the Estate.

Discover opens a Solo Estate with core rooms and Contribution Plumbing. Design adds Joint architecture, deeper relationships, and broader funding-path control.

Data + Architecture
02 / TEST IT

Apply the pressure.

Discover shows persistent and sunset loads with guided uncertainty settings. Design opens detailed routing, release paths, and editable assumptions.

Tension + Uncertainty
03 / SHAPE IT

Reveal the Range.

Discover pairs core deterministic stress with a standard 10,000-path Parametric study. Design opens all four lenses and the 40,000-path Blend.

Measurement
04 / LIVE IT

Carry it forward.

Discover keeps one current Blueprint. Design adds alternatives, saved versions, comparison, and a structured path for reopening the work.

Alignment + Endurance

ACCESS SPECIFICATION

Same Structure. Greater Depth.

Both modes use the Datumae method. Design creates more room within it.

WHY TWO MODES

A First Study Is Useful. A Living Plan Requires More Room.

Discover helps you begin with one individually built retirement structure.

Design is for the questions that follow: What changes if retirement moves? What happens if spending shifts? How does Joint architecture change the structure? Which version of the Estate better supports the life you want to build?

Design adds household depth, automation, external context, deeper modeling, comparison, and durable plan continuity.

Neither mode predicts the future or prescribes a universal answer.

DESIGN MODE / OPENING LATER

Design Mode Is Taking Shape.

Paid access is not open yet. The Studio can be explored during development without completing a purchase. Design pricing and availability will be announced before paid access begins.

ACCESS NOTES

Questions Before You Enter.

Is Discover Mode a demo?

No. Discover is a guided first study through Build, Test, Shape, and Live. It is designed to help a single person build and understand one current retirement Estate.

What does Design Mode add?

Design adds Joint architecture, deeper Estate relationships, supported connected context, broader model design, alternative structures, comparison, and saved continuity.

Can I save my work in Discover?

Yes. You can save your work with a free account today. The planned Discover access model keeps one current saved study; Design will add saved versions, comparisons, and Blueprint Archive when available.

Is payment available today?

No. Paid access is not open, and no payment is required to explore the Studio during development.

What happens to Retirement Baseline?

Retirement Baseline remains an early architectural study within the broader Studio journey. It provides a focused way to establish an initial retirement structure.

Does Datumae provide financial, investment, or tax advice?

No. Datumae is an educational planning tool. Its calculations and modeled results are illustrations based on entered facts, choices, assumptions, and model settings.
