SAN DIEGO, June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Trust & Will, the leading digital estate planning platform, today announced the launch of EstateOS™, the nation's first intelligent platform engineered to modernize how legacies are planned, managed, and preserved. Powered by the industry's most comprehensive first-party estate planning data, EstateOS transforms static documents into dynamic, connected, and continuously guided legacy plans that evolve with life. Designed for families, financial advisors, attorneys, nonprofits, and institutions, the platform delivers personalized insights and seamless coordination to ensure every plan stays aligned with life's changes.
Trust & Will launches EstateOS™ — the first intelligent platform designed to modernize estate planning for families, advisors, attorneys, and institutions.
"EstateOS is more than a product, it's an intelligent system that is redefining how the estate planning industry is served," said Cody Barbo, Co-Founder & CEO of Trust & Will. "It currently supports over one million users, 20,000+ financial advisors, and 200+ institutional partners, tracking $200B+ in self-reported estate assets and 20,000+ planned charitable bequests. It's built to help families keep their plans current through every life stage and deliver value to all stakeholders involved in the legacy journey."
For too long, estate planning has relied on static paperwork, infrequent updates, and disconnected professionals. The traditional process ends with a signature; often leaving families vulnerable to outdated plans, fragmented advice, and preventable risk.
EstateOS is the next chapter: an intelligent, AI-powered platform that transforms estate planning into a dynamic, connected system for modern legacy management.
Flagship features of EstateOS include:
Plan Score™ – A dynamic rating system that surfaces personalized opportunities to help individuals understand, strengthen, and optimize their estate plans.
Connected Networks – Connects key stakeholders, including beneficiaries, executors, advisors, and attorneys, while facilitating essential services like deed transfers and notaries.
Intelligent Assistants – Embedded AI tools offering personalized, actionable guidance for families and professionals alike.
Document Extraction & Summarization – Transforms uploaded documents into structured insights to accelerate plan creation and professional workflows.
And coming later this year: a steady release of groundbreaking features including the Life Event Engine, the industry's first alert system that proactively notifies users of critical updates needed after life changes like marriage, relocation, birth, or death, bulk document ingestion for professionals, tax strategy simulations, tax and distribution insights, multi-beneficiary scenarios, and open API, MCP, and SDKs for enterprise integration.
Introducing Generations: The Future of Planning, Together
To celebrate and accelerate this next chapter in estate planning, Trust & Will is also announcing the launch of its inaugural event: Generations. Debuting in October 2025, Generations will convene financial advisors, attorneys, nonprofit leaders, innovators, and policymakers for a landmark summit on the future of wealth, family, and legacy planning.
Held on the heels of EstateOS's debut, the conference will showcase the platform's continuous feature rollouts and provide exclusive access to the tools, insights, and partnerships driving the industry's transformation. Generations is more than a gathering; it's a rallying point for innovators, advisors, attorneys, nonprofits, and industry leaders redefining how families plan, protect, and pass on what matters most.
A Platform Designed for Every Stakeholder
