Cashmere vs Planner Bee
Planner Bee compares and sells insurance. Cashmere checks whether your cover is enough for your plan, and sells nothing. Here is what each one does.

Pocket is not open yet. Plans are pre-order: fourteen days free, then S$9.99 to S$14.99 a month.
What Cashmere does better
- Cashmere reads your cover against your own plan. Life, critical illness and hospitalisation are judged against what the plan can absorb, not against a rule of thumb.
- Cashmere holds the rest of your money beside the policy: accounts, spending, investments, CPF and tax, so the premium is priced against the date it moves.
- Cashmere earns nothing from what you buy. There is no referral fee, so nothing on the page is shaped by a sale.
- Cashmere is a workspace you keep, not a comparison you run once.
