"The annuity market is significantly underperforming due to a lack of consumer awareness," said Annuity.com, Inc. CEO, Brett Blake. "Studies show that less than 25% of the population even knows what an annuity is, and just 12.5% own one. With 10,000 Americans retiring daily, annuities must become a mainstream solution for financial security in retirement."

Annuity.com, Inc. will focus on empowering independent agents with innovative tools and resources, enabling them to better serve their clients and expand their businesses. The company's vision is to make annuities more accessible and understandable to consumers, fostering greater financial security for individuals planning their retirements.

"We see a tremendous opportunity in the annuity market, which despite growing 70% since COVID to $385 billion in 2023, we believe should be a $1.5 trillion market in the near future," said Blake. "Annuity.com, Inc. is bringing innovation to this channel because we believe it is the single largest opportunity in finance in the US."
