After the story,
for the people who stay.
Epilogue helps you proactively prepare for end-of-life, so the people you love aren't left to untangle a year of paperwork while they're trying to grieve.
A short list, from one real family:
- — Eleven phone calls to the same bank
- — Three certified copies of a death certificate
- — A locked phone nobody could open
- — A garage of belongings, and nobody who agreed on what to keep
- — Eight weeks before anyone slept properly
The challenge
Grief is hard enough.
The admin shouldn't make it harder.
When someone we love dies, we're suddenly handed a logistical project we've never been trained for, and asked to deliver it in our worst week. Personal belongings, accounts, paperwork, family dynamics, time pressure. It quietly piles up while the people closest to it are least equipped to handle it.
Our why
To reduce the operational friction of grief.
Our purpose is to empower people to proactively protect the ones they love from the logistical burden of death, so that when the worst happens, no one is left to navigate the practicalities of loss alone.
And, honestly: everyone dies. We think we should all be a little less afraid to talk about it: gently, practically, while there's still time to do it well.
"A little preparation, made early and made gently, is one of the kindest things you can do for the people you love."
