Words for the Road Ahead

• Record at home, on a phone or a laptop, in any language, and take as many attempts as you need.
• Your advocate sends you a private link to upload it. The link works only for the upload and then expires.
• You tell us who should receive the message.
• While you live, you can replace it with a new recording or withdraw it altogether, at any time.

Your recording is stored encrypted, in RiteWill's private storage in India. It is opened once, to confirm that the file plays, and not again until it is released. No one but you can change or withdraw it.

• Your executor, or a person you have named, tells us of your death and gives us a copy of the death certificate.
• An advocate verifies the certificate and the identity of the person who brought it.
• Each person you named receives a private link to watch the message. The link is for them alone, and it expires.
• Until then, the message stays sealed.

The message carries feeling, not legal effect. It does not change, add to or explain away anything in your will, and it is not a record of what you intended for your property. Anything about who receives what belongs in the will itself, made with its formalities.

For that reason, we suggest you do not speak about property or shares in the recording. A message that seems to differ from the will can give an unhappy heir grounds to dispute it, which is the opposite of what you want it to do.
