FICO Score Planner: Helping People Meet Their FICO Score Goals
FICO introduced FICO® Score Planner, a new feature built by FICO scientists that enables an individual to set a target FICO Score 8 goal and desired time duration to reach their goal. These inputs along with an individual’s current FICO Score 8 and credit report are analyzed by the FICO Score Planner algorithm, which produces a set of potential actions consumers could take to help reach their target goal. Consumers can then track their progress to their goal or modify their goals along their way.
