Available now on iOS & Android · The timing layer for your plan

When the moment comes,
your plan reaches the right people.

After Me is the delivery layer — not a will, not legal advice, not a password manager. It holds your encrypted vault on your device and gives your family a single QR when plans must activate. About 20 minutes to set up.

How the pieces fit together

Four tools. One complete plan.

A legal will gives authority. A password manager holds logins. Emergency contacts name who to call. After Me is the layer that delivers your encrypted vault and instructions when the moment arrives — locally on your phone until you choose to share the kit.

Read more: The timing layer, continuity for founders, or how we talk to operators.

Legal will & professional advice Authority & probate. After Me does not replace a solicitor or a signed will. Use both.
Password manager Accounts & logins. After Me is not a general password vault — it focuses on documents and family access.
Emergency contacts Who to notify first. After Me adds structured document access and a Family Kit for handover.
After Me Delivery when it matters. Encrypted vault on your device; Family Kit (QR + .afterme file) for your chosen people. Not a cloud copy of your life — a deliberate handover.

How it works

Built differently,
for good reason.

Every design decision was made to answer one question: what does a family need the moment they need it most?

01

Your documents
never leave your phone.

No cloud server. No company database. AES-256 GCM encryption. Keys held in your device's secure hardware. Even we cannot access your documents — by design, not by policy.

02

Guided every
step of the way.

Your family scans the QR code with any camera. The app then walks them through exactly where to find the file — USB drive, iCloud Drive, Google Drive. No account, no password, no guesswork. Designed for people in grief, not tech experts.

03

Pay once.
Yours forever.

No monthly fees. No renewal reminders. No risk of being locked out because a payment lapsed after you died. One payment. That's it. While every competitor charges monthly — we don't.

04

Scan your
documents in minutes.

Built-in scanner with edge detection, auto-crop, and enhancement. Or import from Files. 8 categories — Will, Insurance, Identity, Property, Finance, Medical, Digital, Personal. Organised, not overwhelming.

05

A message in
your own words.

Write letters to the people who matter. They'll be delivered with your documents when the time comes. Not a legal form. Not a checkbox. A letter, from you, waiting for them.

06

Works even if
we shut down.

The .afterme file format is open and documented. It uses only standardised cryptography — AES-256-GCM and PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 — built into every operating system. Your family can open your vault without our app, our servers, or our company existing. Your documents belong to you.

The Family Kit

One tap.
Your family
is sorted.

Add your documents. Create the kit. Tell one person where it is. Three things. Done.

1
Add your documents first
The vault needs at least one document before a kit can be created. Scan, photograph or import — takes a few minutes per document.
2
Create the Family Kit
One button packages everything into an encrypted .afterme file and a printed QR Key Card. The wizard takes about two minutes and walks you through each step.
3
Complete the handoff checklist
The app reminds you to tell your family: where the QR card is, where the file is stored, and that they need both. One conversation. Ticked off inside the app.
4
They scan it. We guide them.
No account. No password. The app walks your family through exactly where to find the file — step by step, at the moment they need it most.
Scan to open family vault

No account needed. Works on any phone.

The open vault guarantee

Even if After Me shuts down tomorrow,
your family can still open your vault.

We publish the .afterme file format publicly. It uses only open, standardised cryptography — AES-256-GCM and PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 — so any developer can build a decoder from the public specification using freely available tools. Your documents are encrypted with AES-256-GCM using keys only you hold. No company — including us — stands between your family and your documents.

This is not a policy. It is the architecture.
