Digital Legacy
Digital Legacy, by Torvus
A privacy-first digital estate platform that inventories assets, verifies executors, and releases information only when your policy says it’s time.
Executors and beneficiaries always receive provenance records. Torvus operators never see your plaintext.
Estate orchestrator
Executors receive policy-backed checklists with provenance.
- Per-recipient bundles with redaction controls before anything unlocks.
- Verified executors complete step-by-step check-ins monitored by Torvus.
- All actions produce tamper-evident provenance certificates.
Overview
What Digital Legacy is
A verifiable, policy-driven estate release platform that protects your privacy today while preparing trusted handover for tomorrow.
Torvus Digital Legacy combines encrypted asset storage with policy orchestration. You decide who should receive each item, what verification they must pass, and how long Torvus should wait before initiating release.
Executors receive checklists with provenance so they can evidence every step without exposing secrets. You can pause, revise, or revoke at any time before the policy is fulfilled.
Key capabilities
The toolkit behind Digital Legacy
From intent capture to duress response, each component is built for high-assurance release orchestration.
Asset inventory & intent capture
Catalogue accounts, archives, crypto wallets, and instructions. Attach context and successor notes that stay encrypted until release.
Legacy agents & executor KYC
Nominate trusted people or professionals. Torvus verifies their identity and keeps them in readiness mode with periodic check-ins.
Death verification predicate
Blend inactivity timers, human attestations, and probate evidence before estate mode begins. Manual review today, registry integrations tomorrow.
Estate mode orchestrator
Stage releases per recipient with checklists, provenance certificates, and redaction controls. Executors stay accountable across every step.
Optional crypto key handover
Distribute Shamir-style threshold splits. No single party ever holds the full secret without the quorum you define.
Duress pause
Freeze timers, alert trusted contacts, and optionally serve decoy material without tipping off a coercive actor.
Recipient verification
Recipients must pass passkey-first authentication or high-assurance fallbacks before any data decrypts.
Audit & provenance
Every action emits a tamper-evident certificate so families, lawyers, and auditors can prove what happened and when.
Policy mechanics
How the release policy works
Policies combine inactivity thresholds, grace windows, and verification steps so no single signal can trigger estate mode.
Security & privacy
Engineered for zero-knowledge control
Encryption at rest with customer-specific keys, hardware-backed KMS on the roadmap, and a zero-knowledge design so Torvus never handles your plaintext.
Every vault item is encrypted client-side before it reaches Torvus. We operate with strict separation between compute and key management, and roadmap customer-managed keys via Hardware Security Modules.
Provenance logs are tamper-evident and exportable. External auditors can verify chain-of-custody without seeing sensitive content. Learn more on our Security page.
