RigidLegacy vaults your estate documents with per-folder, per-person heir access control. AI classification organizes everything. You decide who sees what. The rules survive you — enforced by architecture, not memory.
Most families handle estate planning the same way: a folder in a drawer and the assumption that the right people will figure it out when it matters. They don’t. They argue. They search. They miss things.
Even when documents exist, the access problem remains. You can’t hand everyone a full copy of everything — some documents are private, some are only relevant to specific people, and some are sensitive enough that the wrong person seeing them causes real damage.
RigidLegacy solves both. Documents are scanned, AI-classified, and vaulted with granular access control. Every person gets access to exactly what they should see. Nothing more.
Decades of documents in no order. Which is the latest will? Where are the account numbers? Who has power of attorney? It takes weeks to find what should take minutes.
You paid a professional to draft the will. Two years later, you can’t find your copy, they can’t find theirs, and your estate instructions don’t exist in practice.
Everyone got a copy of everything. The financial distribution is unequal. A document someone wasn’t meant to see caused a fracture that outlasted the estate settlement.
Physical originals, copies, folders, whatever you have. Our scanning partner handles intake and digitization at professional resolution.
Every document is identified by type, named, dated where possible, and sorted into a structured folder hierarchy. You receive a summary for review.
You decide who sees each folder. Attorney gets legal documents. Spouse gets financials. Kids get family history. Executor gets directives.
Vault It stores everything on Michigan hardware with living access control. Deliver It ships a USB drive with organized documents per heir.
KI never handles your physical documents. A professional mail-in scanning partner manages all physical intake and digitization. KI receives the structured digital output, applies AI classification, configures vault access, and stores everything on Michigan hardware. Your originals are returned directly to you. We are the intelligence and sovereignty layer — not the paper handler.
Most cloud storage gives you one level of sharing: the whole thing or nothing. RigidLegacy gives you per-folder, per-person control. Every folder can have a different set of viewers.
Access activates on your schedule. Configure rules now and set them to become active on a specific date, on a triggered condition, or immediately. Your attorney can have access today for review. Your children’s access activates when it needs to.
The system doesn’t require anyone to remember anything. The access rules are structural — they live in the vault architecture, not in anyone’s head.
RigidLegacy AI recognizes and classifies the full range of estate and life documents. Each type gets a recommended default access tier — which you can override for any person or folder.
The primary estate document. AI identifies the active version, flags superseded drafts, and routes to the appropriate legal folder.
Attorney + Executor accessLiving trusts, irrevocable trusts, testamentary trusts. Identified, versioned, and stored alongside the will with corresponding access rules.
Attorney + Executor accessHealthcare and financial POA documents. Often need to be accessible to specific people urgently — configured for immediate availability.
Designated agent accessLiving will, DNR, advance healthcare directives. Stored and accessible to the designated healthcare proxy without requiring access to financial documents.
Healthcare proxy accessReal estate deeds, vehicle titles, property records. AI groups by asset type and cross-references with the will to identify any discrepancies.
Executor + Attorney accessBank accounts, investment statements, retirement accounts. Among the most sensitive documents — default access is restricted, configurable by you.
Restricted — you configureLife, health, property insurance. Policy numbers, beneficiaries, and contact information extracted and stored for quick retrieval when needed.
Configurable accessPersonal letters, family photos, genealogy documents, heirloom records. Often the most emotionally significant — set to family-wide access as a default.
Family accessTax records, business documents, military records, passports. AI classifies what it can, flags the rest for your review. Nothing falls through the cracks.
Configurable accessEvery RigidLegacy job ends with the same decision. Vault It keeps access control live and updatable. Deliver It puts everything on a USB drive — organized, documented, and completely yours.
Your classified estate documents live on Michigan hardware with living access control. Update access rules as your situation changes. The vault works without anyone having to remember anything.
Best for: active estates, documents that need ongoing updates, living access control
We classify and organize everything, then deliver on a USB drive with a printed access guide. Every heir gets their own drive with only the documents they should see. No subscription. Done.
Best for: completed estates, one-time jobs, distributing documents to multiple heirs
Operating agreements, buy-sell agreements, key-person insurance, corporate formation documents. The successor sees what they need. The employees don’t. The attorney has full access. Same architecture, different document set.
Engineering drawings, process specifications, trade secrets, supplier agreements. Per-person access means your machinist sees the relevant drawings. Your accountant sees costs. Your competitor sees nothing. Stored on sovereign hardware.
CMMC compliance documentation, vendor contracts, quality records, certifications. Auditors get read-only access to exactly what they need for the audit. Internal teams see operational documents. No over-sharing, no under-sharing.
The access control model is the same whether it’s a will or a technical drawing. RigidLegacy was designed for estate documents because that’s where the emotional stakes are highest. But the underlying architecture — per-folder, per-person, sovereign, logged, updatable — is the same architecture that protects manufacturing IP and compliance records. If you have sensitive documents that different people need to access in different ways, this is the right platform.
On the Vault It path, your estate documents live inside your RigidVault subscription — sovereign Michigan hardware, encrypted at rest, covered by the RigidTrust constitutional framework. Heritage assets are never auto-deleted. That guarantee is architectural.
RigidLegacy connects naturally with RigidMemory. Family photos classified in RigidLegacy can be linked to the biographical timeline in RigidMemory. The family history and the legal estate records sit side by side in the same sovereign vault.
