Changelog
A dated record of real changes to PlainRetire's dataset: corrections, data refreshes, and features. See the editorial & corrections policy for how reports are verified. We never backfill or invent an entry; a gap between dates means nothing changed.
See the editorial & corrections policy for how reports are verified, and the methodology page for how the dataset is built.
- Correction
Fixed every plan link generated from the rankings tables. A precomputed table used the wrong field to build plan-detail links, so clicking any plan from the rankings pages silently redirected to a generic list page instead of the plan itself. All 402,674 plan links now resolve to the correct page.
- Correction
Fixed the homepage's structured-data "last modified" date, which was hardcoded to a stale value instead of reflecting the actual date the underlying DOL Form 5500 dataset was last refreshed.
- Correction
Fixed a site-wide label that described the total plan count as specific to plan year 2023; the figure has always covered all plan years on record, not one year in particular. The label now accurately describes what the number counts.
