Roth conversions have become one of the most valuable planning opportunities advisors can offer clients right now. Savers are watching future tax rates, Required Minimum Distributions, Medicare IRMAA surcharges, and what they’ll leave behind for their heirs. That means advisors need software that can work through complex planning decisions – AND explain the recommendation in ways a client can actually understand.
Every platform on the market takes a different approach. Some are built for full-picture financial planning. Others specialize in tax analysis. A few are designed specifically to help advisors walk clients through the decision step by step.
So which Roth conversion software is right for you? Here’s how five leading platforms compare, and how each one can support your Roth conversion business.

What Should You Look for?
Roth conversion software can vary greatly in scope and approach. Whichever platform you choose, it should help you do the following for your client:
Evaluate whether a Roth conversion makes sense
Model taxes spent on the conversion against taxes saved through it
Produce a clear, easy-to-understand client report
Help clients move forward with your recommendation, confidently
Many advisors also want their software to:
Show a conversion’s potential impact on IRMAA Medicare surcharges
Lay out a year-by-year break-even analysis
Model multiple scenarios to help find the right conversion structure
Bring other financial vehicles, like annuities or life insurance, into the picture
No single platform is the right fit for every advisor. The best choice depends on your sales process, your planning philosophy, and the clients you serve.
Here’s how five platforms compare on the features that matter most to advisors and their clients: eMoney, Holistiplan, RightCapital, Roth Blueprint, and Stonewood’s Roth Done Right.
eMoney
Best For: Full-Picture Financial Planning
eMoney is one of the industry’s leading financial planning platforms. Advisors who deliver full-picture planning appreciate its retirement projections, estate planning tools, cash-flow modeling, and client portal. Roth conversion analysis lives inside a much broader planning solution here, not as its own focused tool.
Strengths
Full-picture financial planning
Strong retirement projections
Solid client portal
Well-established platform
Considerations
Steep learning curve
Not built specifically for targeted Roth conversion education, analysis, or marketing
Holistiplan
Best For: Tax Planning
Holistiplan has become a favorite among advisors for making tax-return analysis fast. Its Roth conversion recommendations are built directly from a client’s tax return, so advisors can fine-tune the plan from real numbers.
Strengths
Strong Roth conversion modeling
Easy data entry
Real time savings for the advisor
Considerations
Needs a completed tax return to run
Less focused on client presentation and Roth conversion marketing
RightCapital
Best For: Retirement Planning
RightCapital pairs retirement income planning with a modern interface and built-in Roth conversion analysis. It’s a solid option for advisors building out full retirement plans.
Strengths
Full retirement planning
Modern, intuitive interface
Strong client experience
Considerations
Less tax depth than dedicated tax software
Limited marketing capabilities

Roth Blueprint
Best For: Advanced Roth Conversion Analysis
Roth Blueprint is built for advisors who recommend Roth conversions regularly. It offers detailed scenario analysis and planning tools focused only on Roth strategies.
Strengths
Specialized Roth conversion planning
Strong scenario modeling
Considerations
Narrower scope than full-picture planning platforms
Roth Done Right is designed to balance complex Roth calculations with a powerful client output that savers can actually understand. The visual reports break down complex tax concepts in a meaningful way, and drive client decisions and confidence fast.
Beyond the software, Stonewood also offers group marketing and lead-gen tools so advisors have a fully-aligned CTA system for growing their Roth conversion business.
Strengths
Easy to use
No tax return required
Simple, visual client reports
Models taxes, IRMAA, and break-even across multiple scenarios
Can bring annuity and life products into the analysis
Helps clients move toward a decision, confidently
Considerations
Not meant to replace full-picture financial planning software
Less detailed tax-return analysis than dedicated tax-planning platforms
Which Platform Is Right for You?
Choose eMoney if full-picture financial planning is your priority.
Choose Holistiplan if tax planning drives your advisory process.
Choose RightCapital if retirement income planning is your specialty.
Choose Roth Blueprint if your practice centers on advanced Roth conversion strategies.
Choose Roth Done Right if your goal is to simplify complex recommendations, help more clients move forward with implementation, and grow your practice through proactive marketing.
Final Thoughts
Each of these platforms is strong in its own lane.
If you need enterprise-level financial planning, eMoney and RightCapital are excellent choices. If detailed tax analysis is your priority, Holistiplan remains one of the industry’s leading solutions. Advisors focused on specialized Roth conversion modeling should take a look at Roth Blueprint.
And for advisors who want to simplify the client conversation with an easy-to-present analysis, Stonewood’s Roth Done Right takes a different approach, one built to help close business faster (we’re a little partial here, naturally).
The best Roth conversion software isn’t the one with the most features. It’s the one that fits how you work, improves the client experience, and helps clients confidently follow through on sound planning.

outcomes for their clients.
An advisor was working with a prospect who was a real "do-it-yourselfer" when it came to Roth conversions.
The client was converting assets up their existing tax bracket – and hadn't considered any impact to
IRMAA.
With Roth Done Right, the advisor was able to show an alternate pattern that sped up the conversion to
6 years. The new structure offered $30,000 savings in conversion taxes – a 20% reduction on the
prospect's conversion tax bill. The report also showed hundreds of thousands of dollars in long-term
tax and IRMAA savings from the converted assets – an amount the prospect hadn't been able to quantify
on his own.
Outcome
A new client with $1M in new AUM, and a $1M FIA sale to fund the conversion process.
An advisor was working with a prospect who already had assets with Ken Fisher. Fisher's team presented a
5% systematic withdrawal projection, so the advisor needed a stronger way to frame the income
conversation.
Using the Annuity Alpha report, the advisor showed how an annuity could deliver over 8% in annual cash
flow with lifetime income, plus a long-term care doubler. The contrast was clear enough that the prospect
moved forward.
Outcome
$1.5M placed and a $100K in new business revenue.
An advisor was working with a 58-year-old couple with an established, well-funded retirement income plan,
leaving an additional $3M IRA to build out a legacy for the kids. The couple's existing advisor had no
real additional plan for this money, other than to keep it in their managed account and grow that money as
much as possible for the kids.
Using the Legacy Done Right report, the advisor showed the need for tax planning on this $3M IRA.
According to the advisor, the simple analysis "opened up the wallet" to the Roth conversion story. The
advisor then used the blended Roth/Life feature in the report to show a blend of Roth Conversion assets
with some Life Insurance to help maximize the client’s legacy.
Outcome
$3M in motion. The advisor picked up a $1.5M FIA sale that will be converted to Roth. And the advisor
also sold a 5-Pay Protection focused IUL policy at $225,000 of premium per year.
An advisor group incorporated the Total Tax Burden report into the strategy presentation for all new
prospects. They ran the tax snapshot for every new client as part of their first meeting conversation,
quantifying the growing tax burden of IRA money – and illustrating the kinds of tax savings possible
when working with their firm.
Starting in January of 2023, this simple analysis was presented to every single prospect who walked in
the door. The goal was to differentiate their practice and drive overall revenue growth through various
Roth conversion strategies.
Outcome
From 2022 to 2025, new annual AUM rose from $5M to $50M. Annual FIA sales rose from $3M to $35M.
And annual life premium rose from $50K to $1M.
