Afterword vs Settle

Settling a loved one's estate is a months-long maze of deadlines, accounts, and paperwork — at the worst possible time. Afterword is the calm, private, step-by-step companion that holds it all, so a grieving executor never has to face it alone or miss a deadline. Answer a few gentle questions and Afterword builds a personalized, ordered plan for your state — with real, cited deadlines and one clear next step. It organizes; it never pretends to be the lawyer. DEADLINES YOU CAN TRUST • A per-state plan with concrete due dates for filing the will, notifying creditors, the inventory, taxes, and closing the estate • Every deadline cites its source and a "last verified" date • Honest by design: deadlines that can't start until the court appoints you are shown as "waiting," never guessed — and fact-dependent items say "confirm with your attorney" THE WHOLE ESTATE, IN ONE PLACE • A structured inventory of accounts, property, vehicles, valuables, life insurance, and debts — with a running net-estate figure • A "who to notify" tracker (Social Security, IRS, banks, creditors) with reference numbers and status • A private document vault for the death certificate, will, letters, and statements • A one-tap inventory & status PDF to hand your attorney or accountant PRIVATE BY DESIGN Nothing about the estate or its finances ever leaves your device to us. Optional iCloud keeps it in your own private iCloud — never our servers. PAY ONCE The guided plan and your first deadlines are free. Unlock the full inventory, document vault, trackers, exports, and co-executor sharing with a single payment — no subscription, ever. Afterword is an organizer, not legal advice. It helps you stay on top of deadlines and records; it does not replace your attorney or the court.

Being named an executor is a 12–18 month job nobody trained you for. Settle is the companion that tells you what to do next — one clear step at a time — from the day you start to the day the estate closes. Settle is an organizational tool, not a law firm, and does not provide legal advice. It helps you stay organized, on schedule, and ready for the court. A PLAN BUILT FOR YOUR STATE Answer a few questions and Settle builds a step-by-step plan tailored to your state and your situation — with deadline reminders so nothing slips. Each step explains why it matters and how to do it, in plain language. PHOTOGRAPH IT, NEVER LOSE IT Snap a photo of any statement, bill, or notice. Settle files it by type and institution automatically, so the paperwork pile becomes a searchable, organized vault. EVERY ASSET AND DEBT IN ONE PLACE Build a clear estate inventory of accounts, property, and debts — and see the net estate value at a glance. Exactly what the court and the family want to know. TRACK EVERY REIMBURSABLE DOLLAR Estate-administration expenses are commonly reimbursable. Settle keeps a clean ledger of what you paid and what's owed back to you, with a running reimbursable total. COURT- AND FAMILY-READY REPORTS Produce a professional inventory report and expense ledger as PDFs in one tap — ready for the probate court, the CPA, or a family member who asks "where did the money go?" EXECUTOR FEE ESTIMATOR Estimate the executor's fee for your state and estate value, based on published statutes.
