Hey Hunters!

I'm Ben. Product manager for 15 years. Worked across startups and grown companies, shipped a lot of products, learned what makes people actually use something versus just sign up.

Then my dad passed. The best kind of person. The one you call when everything falls apart. After he went, my family spent three months piecing his life together from scraps. Bank statements in a shoebox. A password on a post-it. A brother's phone number with no last name.

That experience changed what I wanted to build.

DearFile is the private file your family needs to find when something happens to you. The people, the account details, the wishes, a note from you. Nothing complicated. Simple enough to finish in an afternoon. Private by default. Their access lasts forever, even if DearFile closes.

I built it myself, with AI handling the engineering. Took three months. Launching today.

I hope you never need it. But I hope it's there if you do.

Happy to be here and would love to connect with anyone who has been on the other side of this.
