Wow. So much love for this project. I love the branding and tone of voice. It's so welcoming and comforting. Really really well done on the design front. Can't say "I'm looking forward to using it" the way I would say that with other cool products, but it is is comforting and reassuring to know that this tool is out there to help me get through something, should I need it. Is the idea for it to be used as a whole family or also for "single" people?

@sarahxjo Thanks Sarah! The app supports single use and collaboration as well.

Firstly, thank you for the kind words @sarahxjo. Making the app comforting and welcoming was a major goal for us, and weโ€™re happy it came through so strongly! The product can be used by an entire family, as everyone can benefit from the tools and the content it offers - whether they are the estate executor, or planning a celebration of life for their loved one. We are also planning to invest in a number of key collaboration features in the upcoming versions of the app. Thanks again ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

@rongura Congrats Team Empathy! Thanks for building a product addressing a universal problem that's elegant, user-friendly, and highly functional. Great start and knowing how you've built a team full of relentless perfectionists ... I'm excited to see the constant iterations and improvements.

Great product guys. I recently went through this and it's a mess. I was the phone constantly with tons of people learning about things I never thought I'd need to. Pages upon pages of Medicare, hospital bills, rent, etc. "How much money does he have?" "I don't know" It's a real mess when someone passes.

@mattkenefick Thank you Matt. These are the stories we kept hearing again and again. Loss is so hard, we are hoping to make this just a bit less frustrating and confusing. Thanks for your support!
