About Legacy Ready

We built the tool we wished our own families had.

Every family has a version of the same drawer — papers, passwords, phone numbers, half-remembered arrangements — that works fine right up until the moment someone needs it. Legacy Ready™ exists so that moment goes differently.

What we do

Legacy Ready is a guided emergency-planning tool for families. In about five minutes, you create a wallet-sized Emergency Card with the information your family would actually need in a crisis — the pediatrician's after-hours line, the life-insurance policy number, the combination to the lockbox, the pet's medication schedule. The Card is free. You print it, save it, carry it, share it.

If you want the bigger picture — the full Emergency Plan covering financial details, household operations, digital accounts, and a safety check-in system that tells your trusted contacts if you go silent — that's Pro, starting at $14.99/month.

Why we built it

67% of American adults have no emergency plan. Traditional estate planning costs thousands of dollars and feels like something “older people” do. The result: entire generations are unprepared, not because they don't care, but because the on-ramp is too steep.

We think the on-ramp should be five minutes and the output should be a thing your family can actually use. Not a legal document. Not a binder. A card in your wallet, a PDF in your spouse's inbox, and enough operational detail that whoever is handling things for you can handle them well.

Three things we believe

The promise is 5 minutes.

If the first step feels like an hour of work, nobody starts. The Emergency Card has to be completable in one sitting, at the kitchen table, on a Tuesday night.

Your information is yours.

We encrypt your data at rest and in transit, we never sell it, and we never use it for advertising. The only people who see your plan are you and the family members you explicitly invite.

This is a gift you're giving.

Emergency planning isn't about you. It's about the people who'd be lost without you. We try to make that feel like an act of care, not a morbid chore.

Who we are

Legacy Ready™ is a small, independent product — built to solve a problem we've all felt but few have addressed. We move fast and take your family's data seriously.

We're not a law firm. Legacy Ready doesn't draft wills, give legal advice, or replace your attorney or financial planner. For legal documents — wills, trusts, powers of attorney, healthcare directives — you should consult a licensed attorney in your state. Think of us as the tool that organizes everything around those documents, and tells your family where to find them.
