    Secure, centralised document storage

    Document Vault

    Estate administration generates a significant amount of paperwork: the will, death certificate, probate grant, valuations, bank letters, HMRC correspondence, and more. Keeping it all organised and accessible - especially when co-executors need to see it too - is a challenge. The Document Vault gives you a secure, centralised place to store every document.

    Key Benefits

    Everything it does for you

    Unlimited document storage

    Upload as many documents as you need for the duration of your estate administration. PDFs, images, and scanned documents are all supported.

    Organised by category

    Documents are automatically sorted into categories - legal documents, financial records, correspondence, valuations - making retrieval fast.

    Secure and encrypted

    All documents are stored in Supabase's encrypted object storage. Access is strictly controlled by Row Level Security - only authorised users can view your documents.

    Shared with co-executors

    Co-executors you've invited automatically have access to the vault, eliminating the need to email sensitive documents back and forth.

    Long-term retention

    HMRC recommends keeping estate records for at least 20 years. The vault retains your documents for as long as your account is active.
