Looking for an Everplans alternative?
Everplans is a guided workbook — "all the pieces of your world in one place" — where you type answers, attach files and name deputies. HearthVault does the work around those pieces, before and after. While a parent is alive: it drafts the powers of attorney, tracks the living will and DNR / POLST against your state's forms, reminds you to get copies to the doctor and shares them with a hospital in one coded link. After a death: it works out survivor benefits, drafts the claim and cancellation letters and lays out every executor step.
