How to read this comparison
Compare the carrier, then the contract.
A carrier comparison narrows the field; the product pages carry the surrender schedules, state availability, and rider mechanics that decide the actual fit.
Financial strength
Annuity guarantees are only as strong as the insurer behind them, so AM Best ratings sit next to the rate rows.
Rate context
Best-rate rows show each carrier's strongest current offer; individual products vary by term, state, and premium band.
Lineup depth
Product counts reflect the current live rate feed, a proxy for shelf breadth rather than a complete catalog.

Disclosures and sources
Live carrier and product figures are sourced from CANNEX via the AdvisorWorld public API and are labeled with source and as-of timing. Rows are shown only for product types both carriers sell in the live feed; missing applicable values show unavailable and are not backfilled with stale figures.
The verdict is auto-generated from current live-feed metrics only and is not a recommendation. Product counts and best rates describe the current rate feed, not every contract each carrier issues.
Rates vary by state, premium band, guarantee term, and issue age. Caps and participation rates can change. Annuity guarantees are backed by the issuing carrier's claims-paying ability and are not FDIC-insured. Educational only.
