A private checklist for the people you'd leave behind.
A digital estate planning checklist is one document that tells the people you trust where everything is if you die or can't manage your affairs: your bank and retirement accounts, insurance policies, the subscriptions that keep charging, where your passwords are kept, and your final wishes. Keyholder builds that checklist in your browser and exports it as a PDF you print and keep. Nothing you type is uploaded, stored on a server, or synced to an account, because there is no server to send it to.
It is the answer to the hard question your family faces at the worst possible time: where do I even start. A good checklist covers the accounts someone needs to access or close, the money and how to reach it, insurance that has to be claimed, physical documents like the deed and the passports, who cares for pets or dependents, and what you want done. It is not the passwords themselves. It points to where they live, so the document is useful without becoming the single most dangerous file you own.
Without instructions, most of them sit in limbo. Email and photo accounts get locked, subscriptions keep billing the estate for months, and no one knows which bank holds the mortgage or who the insurance agent is. A written record of each account, its username, where the password and recovery method are kept, and who to contact turns weeks of detective work into an afternoon. Keyholder gives every account its own entry with exactly those fields.
You do not copy passwords into a document. A safer password inheritance plan template records where each password lives (a password manager, a specific notebook, a sealed envelope in the safe) and how a trusted person can reach it, plus the two-factor or recovery method. Keyholder's Accounts section is built this way on purpose: it asks for the location of the credential, never the credential itself, so the printed sheet is a map to your logins rather than a copy of them.
No. Keyholder is a static page with no backend. You can prove it: open your browser's Network tab, fill in the whole form, export the PDF, and watch zero requests fire. The optional draft autosave writes only to this browser's local storage on your own device, and turning it off erases that draft.
No, and it does not replace one. Keyholder is a practical guide for the people you trust, covering the logistics a will usually skips: logins, subscriptions, where the spare keys are. For anything that decides who inherits what, see a lawyer and make a proper will. Keep the two together.
