How it works

Three steps to a hundred years.

01

Seal

Add keys, documents and passwords. Everything is encrypted on your device before it ever leaves.

02

Nominate

Choose who inherits what, and set the conditions — a delay, a proof of life, a witness.

03

Rest

GILT watches over the switch. Your vault stays sealed until it is time to pass it on.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Who can read my vault? +
Nobody but you. GILT is zero-knowledge: everything is encrypted on your device before it reaches our servers, and only your keys unlock it. We cannot read your secrets even under a court order.
What happens when I pass away? +
Your dead-man's switch fires. If you don't check in within the period you set, your nominated heirs receive access after the release delay — with any conditions you configured, like a witness or a second confirmation.
Is 100-year archival actually real? +
Yes. Your vault is written to format-stable media and replicated across independent providers, and we publish the format spec so your data never depends on a single company's goodwill.
Can I share with my family today? +
Yes. Family vaults give each member their own keys and permissions — read, write or sealed — so the people who depend on you have exactly what they need, nothing more.
