Our take

Estate planning has long been seen as a complex, intimidating, and costly process, resulting in a significant number of adults in the US, approximately 70%, not having a will. FreeWill, however, aims to change this perception by offering a user-friendly tool that enables anyone to create these crucial documents.

By leveraging FreeWill, individuals can take control of their end-of-life planning and ensure that their assets are distributed according to their wishes. The platform guides users through the necessary steps, helping them name beneficiaries, designate asset distribution, and appoint executors to manage their estates. The company also sets itself apart with its Crypto for Charity platform. By including options on digital currencies, FreeWill makes it easier for Crypto and NFT users to make tax-advantaged donations as well.

FreeWill's no-cost estate planning tools are made possible through the support of nonprofit organizations, allowing individuals to create their wills and leave a gift for a cause they care about. By integrating charitable giving into the estate planning process, FreeWill encourages individuals to consider philanthropy as part of their end-of-life plans. With over $7.8B+ committed to nonprofit organizations to date, the company's dedication to supporting charitable causes and the significant impact individuals can make through their estate planning choices is truly evident.
