A letter from our founder & CEO
February 04, 2022
In 2018, I almost lost my life in a car accident. I still remember driving back to the office, numb fingers gripping the steering wheel as I focused on trying to control my jelly legs and racing thoughts.
During that drive, it dawned on me how much bewilderment and confusion my parents would have encountered trying to access my emails, business servers and online accounts - let alone attempting to locate my US share portfolio, cancel my online subscriptions and remove my social media accounts.
Back at the office, I called every lawyer on Google. What I thought would be a simple problem to solve quickly became a complex spider’s web of problems. Not only did I struggle to find a lawyer that could help me, but they all told me horror stories about the issues with digital assets they were currently dealing with.
Looking back, those phone calls were the true moment BePrepared was founded (then Prepared.ly), and they remain the driving purpose behind our raison d'être.
After many months of software development later, we launched in 2019 with the twin core foundations of airtight, “tin-foil-hat ready” cybersecurity and one-click ease of use. My mission was simple: The next person who calls their lawyer about an estate plan will have the opportunity to manage their digital estate too.
From those humble beginnings, I’m thrilled to announce we have grown into the industry standard for managing and distributing digital assets upon death.
Thanks to BePrepared, millions of people around the world now have access to a secure, digital vault to confidentially store and distribute their data at the end of their lives.
Looking forward, we are excited to continue innovating with Estate professionals and tech companies around the world to standardise the digital estate and inheritance process.
