Understand what this tool measures

It targets the broader savings keyword while still giving users the timeline, balance-growth, and contribution context they actually need. That makes it a strong planning page for everyday money goals, not just investing use cases.

It uses the same growth model as the savings goal calculator, but focuses on general savings growth, recurring deposits, and future-balance planning rather than only time-to-goal scenarios.
