Nobody tells you what happens
after the funeral.

  • Death certificates needed in 10–15 certified copies β€” most families don't know this
  • Social Security clawback if you don't notify within 30 days
  • Probate deadlines that vary by state β€” missing them costs thousands
  • Bank accounts frozen with no process to access them
  • Subscriptions billing forever because no one knew to cancel them
  • Life insurance claims denied for missing documentation
  • Tax returns still required for the deceased β€” most families miss the filing
  • Digital accounts β€” email, photos, social media β€” inaccessible or deleted

    Real estates. Real relief.

    "My father passed in October. I had no idea what to do first. Estate OS gave me a checklist of everything and walked me through it step by step. We closed the estate in 4 months instead of the 18 months our attorney said it might take."

    M
    Michael R.
    Ohio β€” closed estate in 4 months

    "During the process, we found $3,400 in unclaimed property we didn't know existed. The guided search was part of the service. That money went straight to my mother's beneficiaries. Worth every penny of the $199."

    Sandra T.

    "My sister and I were both devastated and neither of us knew anything about estates. The complexity estimator alone was worth it β€” it told us exactly what we needed to do in the first week. Probably saved us thousands in mistakes."
