This tool stores all data locally in your browser. No data is transmitted to any server. Platform policies may change — verify current procedures on each platform's website. This is not legal advice — consult an estate planning attorney for formal digital estate planning.
A digital estate is everything you own or control online: financial accounts, email, social media, crypto wallets, domains, and subscriptions. This checklist works like a physical asset inventory — it records that each account exists, where access lives, and what should happen to it, then pairs every category with the platform's inheritance process. Google's Inactive Account Manager releases data after 3–18 months of inactivity, Apple Legacy Contact (iOS 15+) issues an access key to a designated contact, and Meta supports Legacy Contacts; where no built-in tool exists, family must claim access with a death certificate, probate documents, or a court order. The document deliberately stores locations and hints rather than passwords, so it is safe in a password manager or a safe deposit box. The progress engine scores how much of the recommended minimum inventory — one item each in financial, insurance, and email, for example — you have actually documented.
Each category of digital asset follows a different handoff path — the platform's inheritance policy decides whether the family can transfer, memorialize, or must claim with documents. Record locations and access hints — never passwords — and store the list in a password manager or a safe deposit box.
Marcus, 58, completes the checklist for his family. He documents his checking account, 401(k), email, and a Coinbase wallet, then configures the platform inheritance tools so his wife can retrieve everything.
To use it: open the tool, enter your inputs, and get instant results — catalog your digital assets for your family: bank accounts, crypto, email, social media, subscriptions, domains. Everything runs locally; nothing is uploaded.
FreeToolHub Digital Estate Checklist is a free browser-based tool — catalog your digital assets for your family: bank accounts, crypto, email, social media, subscriptions, domains. No signup, no upload; everything runs locally in your browser.
Organize your digital life for your family: accounts, crypto, subscriptions. Free, private.
This tool organizes your digital life for the people who will manage it after you cannot: bank and investment accounts, crypto wallets, email, social media, subscriptions, domains, cloud storage, and loyalty programs. Walk the categories, catalog each asset with access hints and instructions, and the tool maintains a structured inventory your executor or family can actually use. Platform-specific inheritance guidance is built in — what Google's Inactive Account Manager does, how Meta memorializes profiles, what documents banks require — so your notes match each platform's real process. The checklist itself stays on your device, since the document it produces is precisely the sensitive one you do not want on someone else's server.
Adults of any age doing basic estate hygiene — the digital equivalent of writing down where the deed is. Executors preparing for a parent's or spouse's eventual estate settlement learn what questions to ask now, while the account-holder can still answer. Frequent travelers and solo households particularly benefit: the person most likely to need your information is also the person least able to guess it. Crypto holders face the sharpest version — keys and seed phrases that die with their owner make assets permanently unrecoverable — and this checklist forces that item to the front.
(1) Walk the asset categories: financial, communications, social, subscriptions, infrastructure like domains, and storage. (2) For each asset, record what it is, where access lives (password manager entry, recovery codes, hardware key), and any instruction for its disposition. (3) Review the built-in platform guides — Google, Apple, Meta, and major banks — and configure their native tools where they exist. (4) Export the finished inventory for your estate documents, stored wherever your will lives, with access instructions in your letter of instruction rather than the will itself.
The legal backbone in most US states is RUFADAA: executors gain authority over digital assets only to the extent the deceased allowed — via the provider's tools, a will, or other written direction — which is why documenting wishes now, while you can, determines everything later. Platform behavior varies predictably: Google's Inactive Account Manager can transfer data or delete accounts after a chosen idle period; Apple's Digital Legacy lets you designate contacts who unlock photos and data with a key; Meta memorializes profiles or deletes them per your legacy contact's election; banks require death certificates and often letters testamentary before anyone touches statements. Crypto follows no process at all — without keys, seed phrases, or exchange credentials, the assets are gone; with them, they transfer like anything else. Practical rules that make the whole system work: keep the inventory separate from the will (wills become public in probate), never store raw passwords in it — point to the password manager and record how to get in, and tell two people the inventory exists. This checklist structures exactly that.
It is an inventory of everything you own or control online — bank and investment accounts, crypto wallets, email, social media, cloud storage, domains, and subscriptions — paired with the access hints your family would need. Estate attorneys now recommend one alongside a physical asset list, because executors routinely miss accounts that hold real value.
No. Record that an account exists, where the credentials live (for example 'in 1Password vault' or 'with the safe deposit key'), and any recovery path — but never the password itself. That keeps the printed checklist safe to file in a password manager printout, a safe deposit box, or with your attorney.
Each platform has its own inheritance path. Google's Inactive Account Manager can release data to a designated contact after 3-18 months of inactivity; Apple Legacy Contact (iOS 15+) issues an access key; Meta supports Legacy Contacts for memorialization. Without these set in advance, families generally need a death certificate, probate documents, or a court order. The tool's Platform Inheritance panel links each process.
All entries stay in your browser's localStorage — nothing is uploaded to any server. Use the Print Checklist button to generate a clean PDF of every filled entry, then file the printout wherever you keep your will. The completion meter tracks the recommended minimum inventory (for example, one item each in financial, insurance, and email categories).
It organizes 8 categories: email accounts, financial logins (banking, brokerage), social media (with legacy contact settings), cryptocurrency wallets and seed phrases, subscription services, cloud storage, domain names, and password manager master credentials. The average person has 168 online accounts—this checklist ensures your family can access or close each one.
Crypto requires special handling: document wallet addresses, exchange accounts, and seed phrases in an encrypted file accessible to your executor. Unlike bank accounts, there is no "forgot password" recovery—lost keys mean permanently lost assets. An estimated $140 billion in Bitcoin is already inaccessible due to lost credentials.
