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 we’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 🙏🏼

@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!
