What Estatey does

Estatey is the pocket workbench for the small-estate executor — the spouse, the adult child, the named successor — in the first 90 days after a death. It is not a probate-attorney replacement; it is the binder you bring to the probate-attorney's first meeting. It is the calm, structured place to track the 30+ things a personal representative must do in the first weeks, in the order most US states actually expect them.

3M people die in the US each year. Most leave estates under the small-estate threshold ($50K-$200K depending on state). Most settle through informal probate or summary administration. The executor is grieving, juggling paid work, and trying to figure out where the deed is. There is no calm consumer iOS app for this exact moment.

Estatey is that app. No account. No cloud. No subscription. Free.

What ships in v1:

— Estate register: each estate you are administering — decedent name, date of death, county of probate, court file number, your role (executor / personal representative / successor trustee / administrator), bond status. — Account discovery checklist: every kind of account that might exist — bank, credit union, brokerage, retirement (IRA / 401k), employer pension, life insurance, annuity, Social Security, VA, safe-deposit box, USPS PO box, Treasury Direct, crypto exchanges. With status (unknown, found, claimed, closed). — Beneficiary log: each beneficiary or heir, contact, relationship, claim status, distribution status, signed receipts. — Deadline tracker: notice to creditors (state-specific window 60 days-12 months), notice to beneficiaries, final tax filings (Form 1040, Form 1041 for the estate, Form 706 if estate >$13.99M, state estate/inheritance taxes), distribution timing. — Bundled state probate primer: small-estate threshold, summary administration availability, typical timeline, statutory executor fee schedule, homestead/spousal allowance — for all 50 states (general guidance; consult counsel for specifics). — Document vault: will, death certificate, marriage certificate, deed, mortgage, IRA statements, life insurance policies, last brokerage, last tax return — photographed on-device. — Communication log: every call with the bank, the broker, the court clerk, the attorney, the IRS, an heir — timestamped with name and notes. — Expense ledger: every estate expense you've paid personally — funeral, filing fees, appraiser, attorney, broker fees — tagged for reimbursement from the estate. — No 'Pro,' no in-app purchases, no referral fees. Yours.

Estatey is for the surviving spouse, the eldest child, the named-in-the-will friend, and for everyone who walks out of the attorney's office and realizes they need a single place to keep this paper trail.

Estatey is record-keeping software. It is not legal counsel, not the probate court, not the IRS. State probate is jurisdictional — always consult an attorney for specific procedure in your county.

Why we built it

Existing tools are web-based (EstateExec) or Excel templates ($25 on Etsy). The executor is grieving, juggling work and family, and dealing with 5+ institutions in the first month. There is no calm iOS-native binder for the first 90 days. Probate attorneys love when clients walk in organized — but few do.

What makes it different

Estatey is the only iOS app focused on the first 90 days of small-estate executor work: account discovery checklist (12+ categories), state-by-state probate primer (50 states), deadline tracker for creditor notice + tax filings, communication log, beneficiary register, and on-device document vault. EstateExec is web-o…
