Hey there Product Hunt community!
We all have a small list of passwords we want to make sure our loved ones have access to in the event something happens to us. Most folks discover three problems when trying to solve this problem:
1. It's hard to safely share something as sensitive as a password with someone;
2. Often, safe means inaccessible or hard to find for loved ones;
3. We don't necessarily want them to access the passwords right away.
This is what Posterity Passwords is for.
It's a simple way for you to share a small selection of passwords with specific people, and to be certain they won't have access to them unless something happens to you and we can verify your death.
It's end-to-end encrypted, so only you and the recipient can see them.
Check it out, and let us know what you think.
Cheers.

@mohamed_attahri Wow, what an innovative way to keep our passwords safe and secure! Definitely worth checking out!
@mohamed_attahri It's such a helpful solution for people who want to make sure their loved ones have access to important passwords in case something happens to them, but also want to keep those passwords private and secure. It's great that you've found a way to address some of the challenges that come with sharing sensitive information, like the need for secure storage and the desire to control access.
I think Posterity Passwords is a really valuable tool, and I appreciate the thought and care that you've put into developing it. Keep up the good work!
@shushant_lakhyani Thanks for your interest.
To be clear, loved ones won't get instant access, and that's by design. We must first be able to verify that somethings happened to the owner before their loved can access the data. We have a rigorous process that we describe here (posterity.life/how/death-verification/).
Once that verification is done, we can lift the level of encryption that we control, and from there, all your loved ones have to do is login to their account and all the information the owner left for them will be there.

How does the end-to-end work here? How will the loved ones receive the key and where is it stored before?
This is at the odd crossroads of weird, interesting, yet still extremely useful.
The interesting challenge would be if I sign up today, die after 60 years, and you guys aren’t around anymore to give my password to my loved ones.
@puneet_kohli That's a question we get very frequently.
The best way to think about tit the following - We're just like an insurance. You pay a yearly amount so your home insurance can cover any damage that occur over that period of time. You purchase a yearly subscription to Posterity so we can make sure your data is going to be here for your loved ones if something happens to you during that year.
Because there's no commitment from your end beyond one year, you're free to make other arrangements if we ever go out of business.
