Clarity over complexity
Retirement planning is inherently complex. Our job is to absorb that complexity so you don’t have to. Every feature is designed to be understood without a finance degree.

ABOUT NESTMINT · KITE LANE GROUP LLC
We built the tool
we wished existed.
Retirement planning software for real people, whether you’re building wealth or making it last.
Transparent math. No advisor commissions.
No sales pitches.
OUR STARTING POINT
Real questions.
Better tools.
Why we built NestMintWhen we started planning for retirement, we kept running into the same wall. Free tools were too basic to be useful: a savings slider and a single projected number. The serious tools were either locked behind expensive advisor relationships or built for CPAs, not regular people. Dense interfaces, confusing terminology, and almost no guidance for someone just trying to figure out if they were on track.
We wanted something that could handle real complexity, including Social Security timing, Roth conversions, RMDs, tax brackets and spending phases, without requiring a finance degree to operate. Something that would work whether you’re 35 and focused on growing your balance, or 65 and figuring out how to make withdrawals last. So we built it.
WHO WE ARE
A small team.
Independent thinking.
Kite Lane Group LLC is a small, independent software company. We’re a tight team with backgrounds in finance, technology, and product design: people who have personally navigated the maze of retirement planning and wanted to build something better for everyone who comes after.
We’re not dependent on outside investors, which means our only obligation is to you. No backers pushing us toward ads or upsells, no affiliated products to recommend. Just software that does what it says.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
Clear principles.
Built into the experience.
Your data, your business
We never sell your information, and we don’t use it for advertising. Your financial details are used to operate NestMint as described in our Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab), which names our hosting, email and security providers. Workplace plan reporting is aggregate-only, not your individual financial plan. Your employer may separately know your identity through invitations, its own sign-in system or employment records.
No conflicts of interest
We don’t earn commissions, manage money, or recommend products. Our revenue comes entirely from subscriptions, so our incentive is to build something worth paying for, not to steer you anywhere.
Every stage of the journey
Most tools serve either savers or retirees. NestMint is built for both. The same platform that helps you grow your nest egg also helps you make it last once you stop working.
