The Family Vault

One place that knows where everything is.

Your will lives in the fireproof box. The deed is at Wells Fargo safe deposit box #423. The attorney is Joan Park. The IRA still names your ex. Your vault tracks all of it — encrypted on your device. We never see your data.

Doesn't replace your actual documents. Solves the single most common executor problem: “where the hell are mom's documents?”

Checking your vault…

How privacy works here

We can't see your vault. Ever.

Encryption. Your data is encrypted in your browser with AES-GCM, using a key derived from your passphrase (PBKDF2, 200K iterations, SHA-256). The encrypted blob is stored in your browser's localStorage — never sent to us.

No recovery. If you lose your passphrase, the data is gone. There's no “reset password” because we have no copy. That's the privacy tradeoff: absolute privacy, no fallback.

Best practice. Use the Send to executor flow periodically to email a copy of your vault contents (in plain English) to your designated executor. They become your backup.
