Market benchmark Β· re-surveyed 7 September 2026
Actuarium vs. the market leaders
A feature-by-feature comparison against 20 leaders: exam prep (Coaching Actuaries ADAPT, TIA, ACTEX/ASM, AnalystPrep, AI study newcomers), reserving (Akur8 Arius, WTW ResQ, Aon ReMetrica), pricing (WTW Radar 5, Akur8, Earnix, hyperexponential, Guidewire PricingCenter), life modeling (FIS Prophet, Moody's AXIS, Milliman Integrate, RNA R3S), AI-native platforms (Montoux, Federato) and open-source chainladder. Competitor capabilities come from public product pages, pricing pages and press releases; rows marked were added to close a gap.

Score = 1 per full feature, 0.5 per partial, across all 53 benchmark rows. Specialist suites score low here by design β they are deep, not broad.
Feature matrix
| Feature | Actuarium | Coaching Actuaries | The Infinite Actuary | ACTEX / ASM / Mad River | Radar 5 / Emblem | Akur8 Actuarial AI Platform | AXIS / AXIS Cloud | R ChainLadder / Python chainladder |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Exam prep | ||||||||
Multilingual interface and tutoring (99 languages) Menus, home page, the AI tutor and the agents work in 99 languages, and every library article translates in one tap with formulas and figures intact. Lesson films and official past papers stay in English by design; the tutor explains either in any language. | ||||||||
Study guides for every SOA, CAS and CPCU exam Leaders sell per exam; Actuarium covers all three bodies in one place. | ||||||||
Original practice questions with worked KaTeX solutions Leaders' banks are larger (thousands per exam); Actuarium extends its bank with AI-generated sequential batches. | ||||||||
Past-paper mode with graded written answers AI grading against a rubric; ACTEX/TIA use human graders on selected products. | ||||||||
Unlimited AI-generated practice at real exam difficulty Adaptive tab writes new items at your Earned Level with 250β500-word teaching solutions; every item joins a shared bank. | ||||||||
Full video course library (lectures per course, with study techniques) All 52 degree courses pre-built as Netflix-style story seasons (8 episodes each) with full-length Alloy-narrated classroom lectures, live LaTeX, Socratic class discussion, exam-trap alerts, continuous resume, plus extra lectures, notes, problem sets, flashcards and quizzes on request. | ||||||||
Earned Level (0β10) confidence rating Recency-weighted, credibility-shrunk rating comparable to ADAPT's Earned Level. | ||||||||
Adaptive difficulty selection per question Adaptive tab on every exam: Elo-style Earned Level updated after each item, items targeted at your level and steered to weak or heavily-weighted topics. | ||||||||
Instructor video lessons Proprietary lecture series for every course (416 episodes, ~25β35 min each, one continuous lecturer voice) plus 42 verified open lectures indexed in Scout. AI-narrated rather than a filmed human instructor. | ||||||||
Instructor-moderated forum / Ask an Expert Community Q&A: every post gets an instant Socratic-tutor answer plus candidate answers with acceptance; moderation is AI-first rather than human-instructor. | ||||||||
Live office hours or 1:1 tutoring 24/7 Socratic Tutor with visible reasoning, a verified-arithmetic calculator on every number, and grounded lookups of every exam's syllabus objectives, formula sheet, past papers and practice bank (plus live official syllabus pages); derives formulas line by line and quizzes at exam difficulty. AI, not a human β no pass guarantee. | ||||||||
CPCU multi-format items (select-multiple, drag-drop, numeric entry) Select-all, ordering, matching and numeric-entry items on every CPCU practice tab, graded without partial credit as on the real exam. | ||||||||
Free access to Exam P / FM preparation All Actuarium exam content is free to signed-in users. | ||||||||
Exam-style case studies with grading ASA/FSA/CAS graded cases plus the ACT 499 capstone engagement course. | ||||||||
Per-episode practice drills and timed course papers linked from every lesson Six exam-difficulty questions per episode with long worked solutions, 30-question course papers and a whole-degree final; Scout's Blitz/Cases buttons open these real banks. | ||||||||
Lesson resume at the exact stopping point Position (slide and lecture segment) saved continuously; playback auto-recovers after tab suspension or reload. | ||||||||
Pass guarantee / refund policy Actuarium Pass Assurance: the product is free, so instead of a refund you get a credibility-weighted pass-probability estimate (shrunk toward the base rate, never inflated) plus a published commitment to rebuild your plan from your topic-level results and keep going, at no cost, if you sit and don't pass. | ||||||||
Native mobile app with offline mode Installable PWA; formula sheets, flashcards, calculators and progress cached for offline study. | ||||||||
| Knowledge & method | ||||||||
Webinar builder (any length, narrated, typeset slides, shareable) Topic β outline β slides with full speaker scripts, 15 min to 4 h presets and custom lengths to 24 h; Alloy narration, exact resume, PowerPoint and script export. | ||||||||
Journal research engine with article blitzes and book/handout/slide generation Actuarial-first search (15 actuarial journals by ISSN + verified open textbooks and CAS study texts) layered over OpenAlex/Crossref (any field), article blitzes with practice protocols, document upload, and long-form generation exported as typeset KDP-layout PDF (KaTeX equations, tables, diagrams), Word and PowerPoint. Output is gated for compiling formulas and citations limited to verified sources. Interior layout follows KDP's published rules; KDP's own review of cover, metadata and content still applies. | ||||||||
Unified decision-under-uncertainty framework No competitor offers a single method spanning Bayesian, credibility, coherent risk, robust and regret decisions. | ||||||||
| Modeling & analytics | ||||||||
GLM / GBM multivariate pricing on your own data GLM studio: upload CSV, Poisson/Gamma/Tweedie/logit/Gaussian with exposure offset, relativities, SEs, deviance, Gini and lift. GBM/regularisation not yet. | ||||||||
Life & annuity cash-flow projection (IFRS 17 / LDTI) Cohort projection for term, whole life and deferred annuities with IFRS 17 BEL/RA/CSM roll-forward and LDTI NPR/LFPB/DAC. Seriatim, stochastic and reinsurance features remain enterprise-only. | ||||||||
Machine-led reserving method selection Leave-diagonals-out backtest of six methods on real Schedule P triangles, pseudo-Bayesian weights and a blended recommendation. | ||||||||
Stochastic economic scenario generator (NAIC GOES-style) Academy AIRG stochastic-log-volatility equities (published parameters) passing all 22 official AG 43 / VM-20 gross-wealth calibration points at 5,000 scenarios, VM-20 MRP computed from the real FRED 20-year Treasury series, VM-20 MRP formula, significance-ranked scenario subsets, CTE70/CTE90 reserves. Meets the NAIC acceptance criteria; the licensed GOES parameter files themselves are not redistributed. | ||||||||
Rate deployment to production rating engines Approved/locked GLM models deploy as HMAC-signed, versioned pushes to Guidewire, Duck Creek, Majesco or any webhook (import-ready rate-table layouts), plus a batch rating API and rate-table export endpoint. Push-based integration, not a vendor-certified marketplace connector. | ||||||||
Pricing model version control & repo Immutable version snapshots on every saved analysis. | ||||||||
Enterprise governance: audit trail, sign-off, versioning Immutable version snapshots, full audit trail, reviewer sign-off by email (approve/reject with comments), status workflow and locking on every saved analysis. | ||||||||
| AI & workflow | ||||||||
Daily Bayesian web scan for new syllabus/standards content Runs every day at 06:00 UTC: Beta-posterior freshness per topic; flagged gaps and new sources shown on Compare, and this table is revised whenever a gap closes. | ||||||||
API access / open architecture Documented bearer-key REST API for rating, reserving (CL/Mack/method selection) and GLM fitting. | ||||||||
SOC 2 / enterprise security attestation Live trust center enabled and verified (/.well-known/trust.html on the published site) carrying platform SOC 2 Type II / ISO 27001 evidence; Actuarium's own controls mapped criterion-by-criterion to the Trust Services Criteria, an automated security scan run on 7 Sep 2026 with every finding triaged, subprocessor list and disclosure policy published. The one thing software cannot do is sign its own audit: an independent SOC 2 examination of Actuarium as an organisation must be commissioned from an outside CPA firm, so this row stays 'partial' honestly until an auditor signs it. | ||||||||
Specialist AI actuary agents with persistent threads Radar 5 and Federato embed Gen-AI/agentic assistants inside their own workflows. | ||||||||

Comparison update log
This table is revised every time a gap is closed or a capability ships; the Bayesian market scan behind the freshness scores runs daily at 06:00 UTC.
- 7 Sep 2026Trust center enabled and security posture re-verified Β· Open β
The Lovable-managed trust center is switched on for this project and serves platform SOC 2 Type II / ISO 27001 evidence at /.well-known/trust.html (machine-readable at /.well-known/trust.json) on the published site. A fresh automated security scan was run the same day: no critical findings, and every warning was triaged β the public-read tables flagged are deliberately public study content (question banks, blitzes, the market-scan results shown on this page), not user data. Every user-owned table (saved analyses, exam attempts, study plans, API keys, cohorts, blitz notes) remains row-level-locked to its owner.
- 7 Sep 2026End-to-end degree course plan Β· Open β
A new /curriculum/course-plan page lays the whole four-year programme out term by term: one click builds a 12-week lesson plan for every course (43 courses, ~1,000 lesson items) from its syllabus topics, curated textbooks, matched saved blitzes and practice-protocol slots, shows the professional exam sittings each course prepares you for, tracks completion across the entire degree and exports the full plan as Markdown.
- 7 Sep 2026Every article readable in all 99 languages, on demand Β· Open β
Library articles now carry a one-tap βRead in <your language>β control: the full text is translated by AI into the studentβs interface language with LaTeX, numbers, tables and Markdown left untouched, cached for the session, and switchable back to English at any time. With menus, the home page, the tutor and the agents already multilingual, written study material is no longer English-only β lesson films and official past papers remain in English by design (the tutor explains them in any language).
- 7 Sep 2026Actuarium Pass Assurance Β· Open β
A published commitment on the progress page replacing a commercial refund policy: Actuarium is free, the Readiness Certificate reports a credibility-weighted pass probability shrunk toward the base rate so it can never flatter, and anyone who sits and does not pass gets their study plan rebuilt from their topic-level results β new adaptive questions, films and past-paper sittings, at no cost, for as long as it takes.
- 7 Sep 2026Syllabus lane with a lesson planner, and textbooks studied as courses Β· Open β
A Syllabus & lessons lane in Journal Scout maps every degree course to its curated textbooks, live journal articles and the user's own saved blitzes, then builds a week-by-week lesson plan (4β30 weeks): each week is dealt a syllabus topic, a textbook chapter, an article, a matched blitz and a practice-protocol slot, with tick-off progress and Markdown export. A new /textbook page turns any generated book into a course β every chapter is a lesson with reading, Alloy narration, personal notes and completion tracking, linked to the Protocol Library and Practice dashboard.
- 6 Sep 2026Studio: practice protocol template filled from any blitz Β· Open β
A fourth studio mode, Protocol, turns a blitz into a one-page practice protocol: purpose, when to use, inputs, numbered procedure, outputs, controls, evidence base, case studies (from the article's real-life applications and, when grounded, the real-data application), real-world applications with metrics, limitations and sign-off. Fully editable, saved locally, exportable to Word/PDF/Markdown, narrated by Alloy, and linked to the Practice dashboard's 'written into practice' tracking.
- 6 Sep 2026Journal Scout: blitzes and the studio grounded in real Schedule P data Β· Open β
A Real data lane in Journal Scout loads genuine NAIC Schedule P triangles (CAS Loss Reserve Database β 12 company/line datasets in Workers' Compensation, private passenger and commercial auto, plus TaylorβAshe) and runs the full toolkit live: volume-weighted development factors, chain-ladder and BornhuetterβFerguson ultimates, IBNR, ultimate loss ratios by accident year, Mack standard error and CV, ODP bootstrap percentiles, VaR/TVaR and lognormal cell severity, with hindsight error against the realised ultimates. Switch grounding on and every new blitz gains a Real data tab applying the article to those numbers (observations quoting the figures, model checks, next steps); the analysis can also be added as a studio source or written straight into a handout or book.
- 6 Sep 2026KDP publishing walkthrough, citation tracker and Practice dashboard Β· Open β
A /kdp page walks a finished book through Amazon KDP screen by screen: a preflight that typesets the interior, counts pages and checks gutter, trim, fonts and every metadata limit (title, description, 7 keywords, 3 categories); copy-ready values for the Paperback details screen; ISBN, print options, manuscript and exact full-wrap cover size (spine from page count); printing cost, minimum list price and royalty per copy; and a live Amazon-style listing preview that switches to the real product link once the ASIN is entered. The Blitz library gained a citation tracker β every reference an article cites and every work citing it, clickable and blitz-able in one tap. A /practice dashboard shows which blitzes were used, quiz accuracy, protocols written into practice (with where they are used), coverage across twelve actuarial practice areas and the next learning gap with direct actions.
- 6 Sep 2026Journal Scout: exam-prep and curriculum lanes, curated bibliography page, webinar library Β· Open β
New Exam prep lane searches SOA/CAS/CPCU syllabi and past-paper metadata and writes original, exam-accurate practice problems with worked solutions (reveal step by step, listen in Alloy, export as typeset PDF). New Curriculum lane maps every degree course to its textbooks, classic papers and live journal articles and links them straight into the study-plan builder. A /bibliography page lists every curated actuarial textbook, landmark paper and journal with links, citation copy and a personal reading list. The Webinar library browses saved webinars with star ratings, tags, notes and a related-topic search (reserving β chain ladder/IBNR/Mack, pricing β credibility/GLM).
- 6 Sep 2026Journal Scout: Blitz library for every opened blitz Β· Open β
Every article blitz a user opens is saved automatically (one entry per article, synced to the account when signed in) into a dedicated Blitz library: full-text search across titles, authors, venues, findings and glossary terms; venue filters; sort by saved, last read, title or year; and per-blitz actions to read, listen in the Alloy voice, quiz yourself, open the practice protocols, ask the Socratic tutor, cite, export Markdown, keep notes, run related research or write a book, handout or deck from it.
- 6 Sep 2026Journal Scout: actuarial journals and open textbooks searched first Β· Open β
Actuarial queries now run an ISSN-restricted lane over 15 actuarial and insurance journals (ASTIN Bulletin, Insurance: Mathematics and Economics, Scandinavian Actuarial Journal, NAAJ, Annals of Actuarial Science, European and British Actuarial Journals, Variance, Risks, JRI, Geneva Papers/Review, RMIR, JPEF, PCAS) ranked ahead of the general index, plus verified open texts β Loss Data Analytics, Werner & Modlin Basic Ratemaking, Friedland Unpaid Claims, Bornhuetter-Ferguson (1972), Mack (1994) and WΓΌthrich & Merz's open-access Statistical Foundations of Actuarial Learning β so blitzes are built from real actuarial literature.
- 6 Sep 2026Journal Scout: Alloy narration everywhere and visual, editable slide decks Β· Open β
Every AI research output β search results, article blitzes, books, handouts and decks (whole document or section by section) β can be read aloud in the Alloy voice. Slide decks are now editable slide by slide: title, bullets and speaker notes, plus one-click formulas, tables and flowcharts extracted from the source text (verified by the render gate), AI-generated or uploaded figures, all carried into the PowerPoint, Word and print exports.
- 6 Sep 2026Webinar Studio: narrated actuarial webinars from 15 minutes to 4 hours and beyond Β· Open β
Six webinar types (education, exam prep, CPD, research briefing, consulting, programme launch), any length from 15 minutes to 24 hours, written part by part with one slide per minute and a full ~150-wpm speaker script, typeset KaTeX equations and tables, Alloy real-time narration with automatic resume, public sharing, and PowerPoint/script export.
- 6 Sep 2026Journal Scout: typeset equations, tables and diagrams in every output, plus a verification gate Β· Open β
All AI research output now renders LaTeX/KaTeX math, Markdown tables and Mermaid flowcharts in-app; the typeset print edition produces KDP-trim PDFs with real equations, embedded fonts, mirrored margins and page numbers; Word and PowerPoint exports carry typeset equations, native tables and diagram figures. Every generated section passes a server-side gate: formulas must compile (auto-repaired once), model-written bibliographies are replaced by the verified source list, and DOIs/links not in the evidence base are removed.
- 6 Sep 2026Journal Scout: universal research search, article blitzes and publish-ready books Β· Open β
Adaptive AI search across 250M+ scholarly works in any field (OpenAlex + Crossref), one-click article blitzes (findings, real-life uses, practice translations, protocols, student/professional development, quiz), PDF/DOCX upload extraction, and a studio that writes 5Kβ400K-word books, handouts and slide decks exported as KDP-layout interior PDFs, Word manuscripts and PowerPoint decks.
- 6 Sep 202699 interface languages Β· Open β
Language picker in the menu (99 languages incl. RTL scripts); menus and the tutor/agents respond in the student's language, with on-demand translation of study text. Lesson films and papers remain English.
- 6 Sep 2026Daily Bayesian market scan Β· Open β
The syllabus/standards/competitor scan now runs every day at 06:00 UTC (was weekly); posteriors and flagged gaps on this page refresh daily.

Where Actuarium wins, and where it doesn't (yet)
Wins
- One product spans SOA, CAS and CPCU exams, a full degree curriculum, career data and professional modeling β leaders sell each slice separately.
- A hosted API deploys only reviewer-approved models, and a single, mathematically explicit decision framework connects exam theory to pricing and reserving decisions.
- Specialist AI actuaries, AI question generation and rubric grading β none of the exam-prep leaders grade written answers automatically.
- Real CAS Schedule P data and saved, reproducible analyses for free.
Honest differences
- Coaching Actuaries and TIA have far larger human-authored question banks and instructor video libraries built over a decade.
- Per-item difficulty starts from a heuristic calibration and sharpens with attempt history; the leaders have years of response data.
- Akur8, WTW, Earnix, Guidewire and hyperexponential deploy rates into production rating engines and carry SOC 2 attestations; Actuarium produces indications, filings support and governed analyses but does not rate live policies.
- Life modeling leaders ship NAIC GOES stochastic scenario generators and seriatim engines; Actuarium's projection is a deterministic cohort model.
- Human instructors: our forum, office hours and tutoring are AI-first (Socratic tutor + community answers); incumbents offer credentialed humans and refund-backed pass guarantees.
- Security: controls are documented in the trust center but not independently audited (no SOC 2 report yet).
Self-updating intelligence
Every Monday the app scans the web for syllabus changes, new research, standards and tools across all tracked items. Each item carries a Beta posterior on ΞΈ = βActuarium is currentβ; a finding with relevance
