> Securely store crypto wallets, investments, bank details, emails, logins, and notes in Cipherwill. I don’t have any investments or crypto and, sorry, if I ever did I wouldn’t trust you with that info and give you the means to rob and/or steal my identity. That’s a bold ask with a closed source app. I built my own dead man’s switch, which lives in the open on GitHub. It’s a simple rails app w/ encrypted tables and some background jobs to send email checks and reset numbers, or blast out info if you’re not answering. I have no valuable info to put in it.

Hey, I totally get your concerns — trust is crucial with personal data. It's awesome, you've built your own dead man's switch on GitHub! Our encryption means we can’t access your info — it’s yours and your beneficiaries’. But if your setup works for you, that’s great. Thanks for sharing!

  Can you explain how the encryption works, who holds the keys, etc in detail? Your website seems to be very light on details.

I also don't see anything here regarding the decentralized blockchain storage you mentioned in another comment. How does that fit in here?

        Private keys are generated locally from your security factors during setup. We’ll ensure the "How It Works" section is more detailed and add pages for live monitoring that display decentralized storage usage and access details.

I wouldn't trust a third party for slightly different reasons. Even if they are ideal perfect angels, some one could buy them later. Someone could hack them and find some obscure flaw or worse sloppy backend that allows the hacker to go full tilt. Personally, they have way more cojones that I do to even contemplate taking the risk with this.
