Wednesday. 8:30pm. Board pack half-written.
You realise the agreement covers shares, not the relationships you carry.
If you died tomorrow, your co-founder runs the company alone, halfway through the round.
The shareholders' agreement is signed. The bank 2FA, the domain, the admin seats, the investor email thread, all sit on your phone. Equity transfers. Trust does not. Your co-founder inherits the bench, the board, and a half-written term sheet, on their own.
What only you know
Most households quietly run on one person.
Administrative credentials for corporate web domains
The multi-factor authentication setup details for corporate banking
The index of core commercial software contracts and accounts
Secure online login paths for national corporate tax databases
Administrative profiles for verified commercial communication channels
Database encryption keys for internal operating systems
None of this is in a drawer. None of it is in your partner's phone. It is all in your head.
If you went silent tomorrow
Here is what unravels.
Day 1
Your co-founder tries to approve payroll. The 2FA prompt goes to your phone. The team starts asking what is going on.
Week 1
The lead investor asks for the next draft of the term sheet. The thread is in an inbox only you can open.
Month 1
HMRC sends a filing reminder to an inbox only you read. Your co-founder is now doing two jobs in a grieving team.
Month 3
Probate begins. Your shares sit frozen. The round stalls. The company keeps burning runway while your co-founder negotiates with your estate.
By next month, your partner is firefighting. Not grieving. Firefighting.
How it works
One tap a month. Until the day you stop tapping.
Grace period
30 days to reply
We try email, text, and a phone reminder. You log in once, everything resets.

What you actually do
Ten minutes today. One tap a month. That is the whole thing.
- Step 1
Write what your co-founder would need
Bank 2FA recovery, the Workspace super-admin, registrar logins, the accountant and broker contacts. Plain notes, not a wiki.
- Step 2
Name two trusted people as witnesses
Your co-founder, a board member, a lawyer who knows the company. If we ever stop hearing from you, we ask them separately to confirm.
- Step 3
One tap a month, that is the whole job
We send one short email a month. You tap once. If you stop tapping, we wait, try again, and only then start the verified delivery.
The price
£6 a month.
Less than a gym you don't go to. Cheaper than the streaming bundle you forgot you have.

What we never do
Trust is the product. These four lines are why.
We never read your words
No human reads what you write. No AI is trained on it. Encrypted at rest, the honest version.
Two humans must confirm
We do not deliver on a missed email. Two witnesses you named must, separately, attest. No exceptions.
We never sell your data
Not anonymised, not aggregated, not under any future ownership change. It is in the terms in black and white.
We never assume your beliefs
Religion, culture, what you call the people you named. You write the words. We deliver them, unedited.
