Why This Exists

Over the years, I've talked with a lot of people about what happens when someone dies. I've seen families scrambling to find account numbers, insurance policies, passwords, and important contacts — all while grieving. I've watched people dig through filing cabinets, email accounts, and sticky notes trying to piece together the practical details of someone's life.

It's a problem that almost everyone faces eventually, and almost no one is prepared for.

So I built this. A simple, secure place to organize the information your loved ones will need when something happens to you. No accounts, no tracking, no complicated setup — just a vault protected by a passphrase that you control.

There's No Catch

Every time I show this to someone, they ask the same question: "How are you going to make money?"

The honest answer is: I'm not planning to. This isn't a startup looking for an exit. There's no investor expecting returns. There's no plan to add premium tiers, show ads, or sell your data.

The hosting costs are modest enough that I can cover them myself. Maybe one day I'll set up a nonprofit and apply for grants to keep it running long-term. But for now, this is just something I wanted to put into the world.

Your Data, Your Control

I believe strongly that your data should belong to you — completely. That's why this vault is designed with a few non-negotiable principles:

• Create unlimited vaults. Need separate vaults for different purposes? Go ahead. There's no limit.
• Download all your data. Export your complete vault as JSON anytime. It's your information — you should always be able to take it with you.
• Delete your vault permanently. When you delete a vault, it's gone. We don't keep backups of your encrypted data "just in case."
• No lock-in. The encryption uses standard, open-source cryptography. You can decrypt your data yourself with common tools if this service ever disappears.

Privacy Is the Point

Your vault is end-to-end encrypted. I can't read your data. I don't know who you are. I don't even know how many people use this service because I don't count.

There's no Google Analytics tracking your clicks. No Facebook pixel building a profile. No third-party scripts watching what you do. The only thing stored on our servers is your encrypted vault — a blob of data that's completely unreadable without your passphrase.

Putting Something Good Into the World

Not everything needs to be a business. Sometimes you see a problem, realize you have the skills to help solve it, and just... do it.

Death is hard enough without having to figure out logistics in the middle of grief. If this tool helps even a few families avoid that scramble, makes the hard days a little bit easier, then it's worth the time I've put into it.

That's it. That's the whole motivation.
