Alternatives, compared

Everplans alternatives:
seven options, compared.

Everplans organizes your documents and information in one app and shares them with people you name. Its free tier stores three items; Premium is $99.99 a year. If you want the same job done differently, the closest matches are other vaults (Trustworthy, Prisidio, Clocr), a plan that bundles the documents with a vault (GoodTrust), the document makers Everplans points you to (FreeWill, Trust & Will), and MORTL for the explanations and the free plan. Pick by the job: storing and sharing, or getting the documents signed.

What Everplans is

Everplans, in its own words.

Everplans describes itself as "an app that helps you organize and securely store all your vital documents and information in one place, which can then be safely shared with people in your life who need access." It was founded in 2012 and, per its About page, acquired by Precoa in October 2024. Sharing works through people you name as deputies, and its terms describe sections you can mark for release only after you're declared dead.

Published cost: Everplans Premium is $99.99 a year. Its terms say Premium auto-renews at the then-current rate and that fees are prepaid and nonrefundable.
Free tier: The free tier stores up to three items and includes guidance, the content library and the iOS app. Secure sharing is listed under Premium only.
Legal documents: None. Every page carries the line that Everplans "is not a licensed healthcare provider, medical professional, law firm, or financial advisory firm." Premium offers guidance on obtaining documents such as a will and an advance directive; the documents come from elsewhere.
Account: Required, through the web sign-up page or the iOS app.
Status: Active. Its security page reports a SOC 2 Type II examination; its enterprise page sells a cobranded vault through financial advisors.

Start from the job

Which one fits which situation.

You want one place your family can open after you die

That's the job Everplans is built for, and its sharing sits in Premium. Trustworthy includes legacy access on its free tier, with identity verification and a death certificate before anyone gets in. Prisidio names a Keyholder who gets access after verification. Whichever you pick, tell the people you name that it exists and where the login lives.

You need the documents themselves

Everplans gives guidance on getting a will and an advance directive; it doesn't produce them. FreeWill makes the basic documents free. Trust & Will sells fuller packages from $199. GoodTrust bundles documents and a vault for $149. Every one of them says it isn't a law firm. A blended family, property in two states or a business is a reason to hire a licensed attorney instead.

You want to pay nothing

Trustworthy's free plan is "free forever" with 2 GB. Everplans is free for three items. FreeWill is free for the documents. MORTL's guides, checklist and crisis path are free without an account. Clocr's freemium plan limits most features, and Prisidio's free period ends after 30 days.

Your advisor or employer offers one

Questions people ask

The short answers.

Is Everplans free?

Partly. Its pricing page lists a free tier that stores up to three items, with guidance, the content library and the iOS app. Everplans Premium is $99.99 a year, auto-renews, and unlocks unlimited items, premium checklists and secure sharing.

Does Everplans make a will?

No. Everplans says it isn't a law firm, and Premium provides "personalized guidance to obtain documents such as a Will and Advance Directive." FreeWill, Trust & Will and GoodTrust produce the documents; FreeWill is free, Trust & Will starts at $199, GoodTrust charges $149 for its plan.

Which Everplans alternatives have a free tier?

Trustworthy: $0 "free forever," 2 GB, one family member, legacy access. FreeWill: the whole product is free. Clocr: a freemium plan with limited features. Prisidio: 30 days free, then $45 or $150 a year. GoodTrust: you can start a will free but need a paid account to download it.

What happens to a vault when you die?

Each service names its own mechanism. Everplans releases what you shared to your deputies, and its terms describe sections you can hold back until you're declared dead. Trustworthy's legacy-access holders contact the company and pass identity verification, with a death certificate or a letter from an estate attorney. Prisidio's Keyholder gets access after a verification process. None of this replaces a will; it gets your people the paperwork.

What happened to Cake and Lantern?

Both used to appear in lists like this one. Cake's address now redirects to Altogether Funeral, a funeral home network, and Lantern's redirects to a Wellthy page titled "Retiring Lantern." MORTL keeps a record of each shutdown and the document-recovery contacts on the platforms comparison page.

Who owns Everplans?

Precoa, since October 2024, according to Everplans' own About page. Everplans was founded in 2012 by Abby Schneiderman and Adam Seifer.
