Preparing for those difficult times
Preparing for those difficult times. All your important documents, secure and safe, in one place. From utility bills to social media passwords. Easily accessed, for when you need them. Kept safe, for when you need them.
Protecting those treasured memories
Protecting those treasured memories. Preserving the stories you never want to forget. Reliving those shared, precious moments. Kept safe, always there for you. Kept safe, for when you need them. A secure place, for what matters most.
It’s about stories
Stories. Memories. The things we miss. The things we want to leave behind. A place for stories, photos and videos.
Why a safe like this matters
DedSafe puts it all in one calm, private place, so nothing important is lost and no one you love is left searching.
For every generation
The things that matter change as life goes on. DedSafe keeps them safe at every step and lets you share them with the people who'll need them.
First job, first home, first big decisions.
Busy years, with more people relying on you.
Peace of mind, for you and for them.
Many families share it too: grown-up children helping a parent get organised, or grandparents leaving something special for the little ones.
One safe, many jobs
Organised into drawers, just like a real filing cabinet, but encrypted, searchable and always to hand.
Wills, certificates, insurance and bills, kept in tidy drawers you can lock, search and share.
A private vault for your website and bank logins, locked with a key that only you hold. Find out more →

Family, friends, doctor and solicitor: numbers, addresses and important dates in one place.
Appointments, reminders and little sticky notes, with email alerts when you need them.

Peace of mind, built in
DedSafe doesn't just store your life. It helps look after you while you're here and your family afterwards.
A gentle, guided pack that gathers what your family will need: where the will is, your funeral wishes, the accounts and a final message, ready for the people you trust.
This pack is not a will and does not replace one. It helps your family find your will and everything else.
A gift to your family
Many families don't know where the will is, what the funeral wishes are or which accounts exist and end up searching at the worst possible time. A friendly wizard walks you through it, one small step at a time.
"If you're reading this, thank you for looking after my affairs. I've written down the things you'll need, to make a hard time a little easier."
for help with wills, funerals and more.
Agree a family code word that helps protect against AI voice-clone scams. Keep the real numbers to call on a card you can print for the fridge: 159, which connects you safely to your own bank and Report Fraud (England, Wales and Northern Ireland).
Staying safe from fraud
Scammers frighten and hurry people into paying. If a call claims to be a grandchild in trouble, even if the voice sounds right, you simply ask for the code word. A criminal won't know it.
We follow the Stop, Challenge, Protect advice from Take Five to Stop Fraud, the UK's national anti-fraud campaign.
Choose every day, certain days or once a week. On those days we email you a reminder with one friendly button. If a day is missed, the family member you choose gets a kind email the next day, suggesting they give you a call. Going away or into hospital? Pause it with one tap.
The check-in is not an emergency service. It won't call 999 or send help. In an emergency, always call 999.
Independence, with a safety net
One tap lets your family know all is well. Nobody sees where you are or what you do, only that you've checked in. You're in charge and can switch it off any time.
Gentle questions about where you grew up, how you met and the moments that mattered, with room for a wedding photo or two. It becomes a keepsake your family will treasure.
A story only you can tell
Answer as much or as little as you like, add photos, even record it in your own voice, then print a book to share. Because one day, this will mean the world.
A QR code card for your wallet and fridge. A paramedic scans it and sees only what you've chosen: your allergies, medical conditions, medicines, treatment wishes and who to contact. It always shows the latest details, because it links to your live record.
Anyone who scans the code can see the card, so a paramedic is never locked out. Only put on it what you'd be happy for a stranger to see. It is a summary to help responders, not an official medical record.
If the worst happens
Choose exactly what shows, print the wallet and fridge cards at home and a responder can read it in seconds. You can see when your card was last viewed and if you lose your wallet you can make a new code so the old card stops working.
A Box is a small, separate parcel of messages, photos or files for one special person. Lock it with a short code and choose the day it opens, such as a grandchild's 18th birthday. On that day we send them a secure link.
For someone special
Record a birthday message now and let it be delivered years from today. The person receiving it doesn't need a DedSafe account. For a child, the link goes to a grown-up you trust, so it reaches them safely.
Made for real people
Big friendly buttons, plain language and a helping hand on every screen. No jargon, nothing to break.
Built to the international standard for accessible websites and checked with automated accessibility tests.
Set it up together over a cup of tea. You can add yourself as a Helper to lend a hand day to day, as a Keyholder for later or as the person their "I'm okay" check-in tells if a day is missed.
A Helper only sees the parts of the safe your parent chooses, read-only. Helpers never see passwords or anything locked.
For sons and daughters
If you look after a parent, DedSafe gives them a simple, private place for their papers and wishes and gives you the reassurance that, if you ever need them, you'll know exactly where everything is.
With a Family membership, Mum, Dad and you each get your own private safe on one simple bill.
Safe by design
Trust is the whole point, so here is exactly how we look after your things.
Every document, photo and recording is encrypted with AES-256 (the standard banks use) before it is stored and even the file names are scrambled. Files are kept in a private area of our server that can't be reached by typing a web address.
My Passwords is "zero-knowledge". It is locked on your own device with a separate vault password that only you know, so no one at DedSafe can read it. If that password is ever forgotten, the saved passwords can't be recovered. Your documents are encrypted too, but we look after those keys, so the Keyholders you choose can be given access one day.
Your login, then your secret passphrase. Nothing can be seen or changed until you unlock it.
Give a helper day-to-day access, or name Keyholders for later. Read-only and you can take it back any time.
Medicines and the Emergency Card hold health information. UK GDPR calls this "special category data", the most protected kind and we treat it that way.
A quiet activity log tells you when your card was viewed or a box was opened. Reassurance, not surprises.
DedSafe is hosted in London by Krystal, a UK hosting company certified to ISO 27001 (the international standard for information security) and Cyber Essentials (a UK government-backed security scheme). Your safe and its backups both stay in London, with the backups kept in a separate data centre.

The people behind DedSafe
Xander, Tim and Ryan explain, in their own words, why they built DedSafe.
Your questions, answered
The things people most often ask us, in plain English.
Your Keyholders are given access automatically, but only after a period with no activity that you choose: 3, 6, 12 or 24 months.
Signing in, opening your safe or tapping “I’m okay” all count as activity. Before anything opens, we email you twice, then your check-in contact and helpers, then your Keyholders, who can tell us you’re fine. From the first reminder it takes at least four weeks. Each Keyholder must type a code sent to their own email and they only see what you chose for them, read-only.
No. We never open or hand over a safe by hand, even if we are sent a death certificate.
Your safe only opens to the Keyholders you chose, after the quiet period you set. That’s why it’s worth choosing a period you’re comfortable with and telling your Keyholders that DedSafe exists.
DedSafe does not hand over your safe because of illness, so a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is the right way to plan for this.
An LPA is a legal document, registered with the Office of the Public Guardian, that lets people you trust make decisions for you. You can record your LPA details in DedSafe so your family know where the original is. While you are well, you can also add a Helper, who can see the parts of your safe you choose (read-only) to help you day to day.
You can set a new one yourself with a 6-digit code we email you.
Nothing in your safe is lost when you do this. Because anyone who can read your email could do the same, it’s important to keep your email account safe too.
Your saved passwords can’t be recovered, not even by us.
My Passwords is “zero-knowledge”: it is locked on your own device with its own vault password, which we never see. You can download a copy of your passwords at any time from inside the vault and keep it somewhere safe.
No. My Passwords is never passed on, not even to your Keyholders.
For the few logins your family will really need, the “When I’m gone” pack lets you list your online accounts and what you’d like done with each one, without writing the passwords themselves.
Our admin screens only show your name, plan and how much space you use, never what you keep and we never look inside anyone’s safe.
Your documents, photos and recordings are encrypted before they are stored, with the file names scrambled. To be completely open with you: we look after the keys to your documents securely, so that your Keyholders can be given access one day, so documents are not “zero-knowledge”. Only My Passwords is zero-knowledge, which means not even we hold the key.
No. DedSafe is not a legal document and does not replace a will or an LPA.
It helps your family find your will, your LPA and everything else they’ll need. To make a will or an LPA, speak to a solicitor, or visit GOV.UK for the official LPA service.
Yes. You can download everything, any time, as one zip file.
The download includes your documents in their drawers and folders, your lists, notes, contacts and diary, your journal, the “When I’m gone” pack, your LPA details, your Emergency Card and your family tree. It is not locked, so please keep it safe. Drawers you have locked are downloaded separately and My Passwords has its own download.
You keep read-only access for 30 days, so you can download anything you want and then your safe closes.
We email you 7 days and 1 day before it closes. We then keep your safe for a further 60 days, just in case, before it is permanently deleted. You can come back at any time before then. If you’d rather keep things read-only for longer, ColdSafe costs 10% of your plan.
In the UK. Your safe and its backups are kept in London, in two separate data centres.
DedSafe is hosted by Krystal, a UK hosting company certified to ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials. Health details, such as your medicines and Emergency Card, are treated as special category data under UK GDPR.
For you, for your peace of mind and for the people who love you.
