Your family gets access exactly when they need it.

The Problem

Most families aren't ready. And neither is their estate plan.

Passwords on sticky notes. A will no one can find. Financial accounts your family gets locked out of for months. And existing digital vault services that let a beneficiary simply report your death and wait for an email to go unanswered.

📌

The sticky note problem

The average American has 160+ digital accounts. Most people's estate 'plan' is a notebook their family will never find.

🔐

The password lockout

Families lose access to bank accounts, crypto wallets, and email for months — sometimes forever — because credentials were never properly documented.

⚠️

The early access risk

Most estate vaults unlock when a beneficiary sends an email and your account goes quiet. No independent verification required.

📋

60% have no estate plan

Most Americans don't have a will, and those who do often haven't told anyone where it is or how to access it.

Estate settlement takes months

Without organized documents, settling an estate takes an average of 16 months and causes significant family conflict.

💸

$84T transferring hands

The Great Wealth Transfer is underway. Without a secure plan, a significant portion of that wealth simply disappears.

The Solution

Built for the moment that truly matters

Genlocker gives your family everything they need — organized, encrypted, and locked until the one moment it should open.

Encrypted Vault

Store wills, trusts, insurance policies, property documents, and digital credentials in a zero-knowledge AES-256 encrypted vault. We cannot read it. Neither can anyone else.

Beneficiary Management

Add the people who matter — children, spouse, attorney, financial advisor. Control exactly who sees which documents. Granular permissions, not all-or-nothing access.

Verified Unlock

When the time comes, your family submits an official death certificate. Our team verifies it's genuine. Only then do vault keys combine to release access. No email timeout. No self-report.

Cryptographic Keys

Genlocker uses a split-key model: your beneficiaries hold partial keys. Our system holds another. Neither party can open the vault alone. Both are required.

Zero-Knowledge Design

Our architecture means even Genlocker employees cannot access your documents. You encrypt before it reaches our servers. We store ciphertext we've never seen.

Audit Trail

Every access event is logged with a tamper-evident timestamp. Know exactly when your vault was viewed, modified, or unlocked — forever.

How It Works

Three steps. A lifetime of peace of mind.

01

Store your documents

Upload your will, trust, insurance policies, financial account details, and your password manager master key. All documents are encrypted on your device before they leave your browser.

02

Add your beneficiaries

Invite the people who matter — family, attorneys, financial planners. Set exactly which documents each person can access. They create accounts and receive their partial cryptographic keys.

03

Verified release

When you're gone, a beneficiary submits your death certificate. We verify it's official and government-issued. Keys combine. The vault unlocks. Your family has exactly what they need.

Security

Built for documents your family can't afford to lose

Security is the entire product, not a feature. Every architectural decision — from encryption key management to death certificate verification — is designed so that no single party, including Genlocker, can access your vault without authorization.

The Difference

Not all estate vaults are created equal

Most digital estate planning services were designed for convenience. Genlocker was designed for certainty. There's a meaningful difference between the two.

Early Users

People who've been there. And don't want to go back.

"After my father-in-law passed unexpectedly, we spent three months tracking down accounts and documents. I set up Genlocker for my parents the very next week. The peace of mind is worth every penny."

"I'm a retired estate attorney. The death certificate verification requirement is exactly what this space has been missing. Every digital vault I've reviewed relies on trust instead of proof. Genlocker fixes that."

FAQ

Common questions

What if I become incapacitated but am not deceased?
Genlocker is designed specifically for death-triggered access — not incapacitation. For healthcare directives, power of attorney, and incapacitation planning, we recommend working with an estate attorney. Store those documents in Genlocker, but designate your healthcare proxy or POA separately through legal channels.
What documents should I store in my vault?
The most important: your will, trust documents, life insurance policies, financial account information and login credentials, your password manager master password, property deeds, vehicle titles, and any special instructions for your estate. You can also store personal messages, a letter of instruction, and your digital asset inventory.
How exactly is the death certificate verified?
When a beneficiary initiates the unlock process, they upload a certified copy of the death certificate. Our team verifies that it's an official government-issued document — checking the issuing authority, document number, seal, and key data fields. We also cross-reference the Social Security Death Master File where available. For Plus and Family plan members, we complete this review within 24 hours.
Can my beneficiaries access anything before I die?
No. Your vault is locked until death certificate verification is complete. Beneficiaries can log in to their accounts, but they cannot see your documents or their assigned content until the unlock process is successfully completed.
What happens to my data if Genlocker ceases operations?
We maintain a detailed business continuity policy. If we ever intend to shut down, we will provide at least 90 days' notice and a full data export in standard formats. Because your vault is encrypted with keys you and your beneficiaries control, your data is never solely in our hands.
Is Genlocker HIPAA compliant?
Genlocker is not a healthcare provider or business associate, so HIPAA does not directly apply. However, our security standards (AES-256 encryption, access controls, audit logging) meet or exceed HIPAA technical safeguard requirements. We do not store protected health information (PHI) as defined under HIPAA.

Your family deserves more than an email that goes unanswered.

Set up your Genlocker vault in under 20 minutes. The 30-day free trial means there's no reason to wait.
