The no-braineragainst every competitor.

Trust & Will charges $199+ as a one-time purchase for a static will document and offers no document vault, no digital asset handling, and no ongoing updates. Henedo is a subscription platform starting at $5.99/month that includes unlimited will updates, a 100 GB encrypted vault, a daily journal, a dead man's switch, optional physical engraved NFC keys, and an inheritable Eternal Vault preserved for 100–500 years (with optional 1,000-year M-Disc redundancy).

LegalZoom sells will documents for $99–$549 one-time and charges again for updates. Henedo Guardian is $5.99/month ($71/year) and includes unlimited updates, jurisdiction-specific templates worldwide, a full document vault, and digital legacy tools, making Henedo cheaper than LegalZoom in every life-change scenario (marriage, new child, home purchase, divorce).

No. Everplans is $99/year and includes a vault but no will builder, no digital asset encryption, no physical keys, no dead man's switch automation, no journal, and no generational archive. Henedo Guardian at $5.99/month ($71/year) covers the same vault features plus everything Everplans lacks.

Password managers solve password access, not estate planning. They do not include a will builder, document vault for deeds/policies, inheritance workflow, dead man's switch, or physical key delivery. Henedo covers all of those alongside encrypted passwords and crypto recovery phrases.

Two layers, combined. (A) Architectural depth: true zero-knowledge with a 128-bit device-bound Account Secret Key, WebAuthn PRF biometric hardening, master key isolated in a Web Worker, canary-blob breach detection with automatic Security Lockdown, binary transparency for every web build, and ML-DSA-65 post-quantum signatures on every Eternal Vault, shipped in production, not on a roadmap. Your data is readable only by you and the trusted contacts you designate; not even Henedo administrators can decrypt it. (B) Product features no incumbent combines: engraved NFC cards with split-key cryptography mailed to inheritors; a dead man's switch with platform-gated release and a 5-week warning cascade; a daily life journal tied to vault activity; an Eternal Vault with a 1 M-Disc heirloom token holding keys, manifest, and critical files; and generational inheritance chains. No online will platform, password manager, or digital legacy service ships both layers.

Henedo uses zero-knowledge end-to-end AES-256-GCM encryption with Argon2id key derivation and a device-bound Account Secret Key. A traditional attorney stores your documents in a physical or cloud filing system they or staff can read. Henedo's server cannot read your data even under subpoena because the keys never leave your device.

Your Eternal Vault uses open encryption standards documented inside the vault itself, sits on actively-preserved geo-redundant storage (refreshed every ~10 years, the same discipline used by the Library of Congress and national archives), and the optional M-DISC optical backup (tested per ISO/IEC 10995:2011/ECMA-379, rated for up to 1,000 years per U.S. DoD projection) is an extra redundancy layer your inheritors can decrypt offline without Henedo. No competitor offers company-outlasting preservation.

No. M-DISC is an extra redundancy layer, not the primary medium. Henedo's primary storage is geo-redundant cloud object storage, with continuous SHA-3 fixity checks. On top of that, Henedo runs an active-preservation cycle: roughly every 10 years the underlying drives, formats, and infrastructure are migrated to current technology, the way archival institutions do it (ISO 14721 / OAIS, PREMIS). Treating long-term storage as a static cloud bucket is what kills consumer "lifetime" services. Active preservation is what keeps an archive alive for 100+ years.
