Why Testament

The security model your important documents deserve

Your documents, your Drive

Encrypted files live in your own Google Drive, not on our servers. Google's ownership metadata proves who created each document and when — tamper-proof origin verification.

The dead man's switch

The encryption key is derived from both your identity and your recipient's. They can't decrypt without your physical ID card — which they'll only receive after you're gone.

Military-grade encryption

AES-256-GCM with Argon2id key derivation (64MB memory-hard). Encryption happens entirely on your device — your identity information is never stored, transmitted, or logged.

Works in every country

Use any government-issued ID — national ID, passport, SSN, Aadhaar, My Number. The app normalizes all formats automatically. One sealed document works across all devices and platforms.

Three layers of security

Layer 1: owner's ID card. Layer 2: recipient's own identity. Layer 3: optional secret phrase delivered through a separate channel — sealed letter, safe deposit box, or verbal instruction.

Zero knowledge by design

We never see your documents, your identity information, or your encryption keys. Everything is encrypted on your device. Our server only handles Google sign-in — nothing else.

How it works

1

Select a document

Choose any file — will, insurance policy, property deed, bank details, or personal letter.

2

Enter both identities

Your ID number + date of birth, and your recipient's. Optionally add a secret phrase.

3

Seal and upload

The app encrypts the file on your device and uploads it to your Google Drive.

4

Share the link

Send the recipient a link. They'll need YOUR physical ID card + their own identity to unlock.
