Digital Legacy Management: A Platform for Planning What Happens to Your Data After Death
People lack the tools to manage their digital accounts after death. This platform lets them securely pass access to their chosen beneficiaries.
A digital legacy management platform combines encrypted credential storage, an automatic user activity monitoring mechanism and legally binding designation of digital beneficiaries. The operator builds a SaaS product on a low-code tool (Bubble.io) with integration of a secure password vault, AI categorisation of digital assets and automated verification workflows. Revenue comes from annual or monthly subscriptions, with a basic plan covering the most important accounts and a premium plan covering cryptocurrencies, business accounts and personalised instructions for next of kin. The market is growing globally, legislation is evolving and competition has yet to serve the UK market comprehensively.
Every year, families across the UK struggle to access a deceased loved one's email, banking apps or cryptocurrency wallets. Platforms enforce asymmetric terms of service and will deny access without explicit authorisation โ regardless of family ties or court orders.
๐A globally growing market with no dominant UK player
Research agencies project strong growth in the digital legacy management sector through to the end of the decade. The UK market has no dedicated, locally compliant platform with UK-law support and native English-language customer service.
