VA Pricing & Risk API

Stripe for VA pricing — API-first, pay-per-compute, zero implementation overhead.

Stateless computation, not a data platform

Send contract parameters, receive valuations and Greeks. We store no policyholder data, no PII, no portfolios. Every call is stateless: numbers in, numbers out.

No SOC 2 requirement. No data breach liability. No months-long implementation. Subscribe on AWS Marketplace and start calling in minutes.

Tier 2 — Stochastic

$2–5K/mo
Mid-tier carriers, reinsurers, consulting firms
  • Everything in Tier 1
  • Monte Carlo: 1,000–100,000 paths per request
  • Risk-neutral + real-world scenario sets
  • CTE measures for reserving (VM-21, C3 Phase II)
  • Batch mode for full product shelf evaluation

Tier 3 — Risk & Sensitivity

$5–15K/mo
Hedging desks, reinsurer risk teams
  • Everything in Tier 2
  • Greeks: Delta, Vega, Rho, Gamma, Theta via AAD
  • Stress testing with custom multi-factor grids
  • Hedge ratio computation
  • Dedicated compute for latency-sensitive workflows
Disclaimer: API outputs are computational tools, not regulatory filings. Users must independently validate all results before use in reserve calculations, product pricing, or regulatory submissions. VariableAnnuityGuide.com does not provide financial advice or actuarial certification.

Why not build in-house?

In-house quant team

  • $1–3M/year in quant salaries
  • 6–12 months to production
  • Ongoing maintenance and model risk
  • Difficult to hire and retain

VariableAnnuityGuide API

  • $6K–180K/year (10–30× cheaper)
  • Start calling in minutes
  • Versioned, documented methodology
  • No infrastructure to maintain
