Emergency Binder

An emergency binder and end of life planner that works like real software — not a stack of printables. Everything your family needs to find, decide and do.

You fill it in slowly, a bit at a time. They read one page.

What this is

A complete just in case binder for your household. Accounts and bills, insurance, property, medical details, the will, funeral wishes, online accounts, and — the part families always get stuck on — where every document is actually kept.

It opens straight from a file on your computer, phone or tablet. Nothing to install, no account to create, no monthly fee.

Why it is not a printable

Most emergency binders are 150-page PDFs. You print them, most pages do not apply to you, you cannot add a field you need, the text gets cut off, and you fill the same details in three times.

This one is different:

• It hides the sections that are not your life — no pets, no business, no vehicles
• You enter a person once and they appear everywhere they are relevant
• Every box grows as you type, so nothing is ever cut off
• You can add your own fields to anything
• It still prints beautifully when you want paper

What is inside — 7 sections, over 20 pages of organiser

• Overview — a readiness score, what to do next, and an honest list of what your family would and would not be able to do today
• People & Pets — household, pets and their care, key contacts, and a call list already in the order you choose
• Money & Belongings — accounts and bills grouped with running totals, subscriptions (including the forgotten ones), insurance with beneficiaries, property, vehicles and debts
• Health — a medical card for each person with blood type, allergies, conditions and medication, plus doctors, pharmacy and care wishes
• Legacy — will and estate, funeral and final wishes, what should happen to every online account, and private letters to the people you love
• Where to find it — a map of the real places things live: the safe, the drawer, the deposit box, the solicitor — and who can already open each one
• The Handover page — one page, written to your family, that fills itself in from everything above. Who to ring and in what order, where the will is, what to cancel, what to claim. Print it and keep it with your papers.

It never holds a password

There is deliberately nowhere in this binder to write one. You record where a sign-in is kept — a password manager, a sealed envelope, the safe — never the sign-in itself. If this binder is ever seen by the wrong person, there is nothing in it to take.

All the benefits, without spreadsheet stress

No formulas to break. No cells or tabs to mess up. Nothing to set up — it just opens and works. No monthly subscription and no account. It looks and behaves like real software, not a grid you are frightened of breaking.

Made to live with

• 3 themes — a warm light one, a cool light one, and a dark one for reading at night
• Full English, Spanish and French — switch any time, your own words stay exactly as you typed them
• Works on phone, tablet, laptop and desktop
• Works with no internet at all
• Optional cloud sync across your devices if you want it — completely optional
• Print the whole binder, any single section, or just the handover page
• Export a backup file any time, and restore from it

What you get (instant download)

• The binder itself — one file you open in Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox
• demo-data.json — a complete sample household you can load from Settings to see everything working, then clear
• A quick-start guide (PDF)

The practical answers

• Do I need an account? No. There is a one-time choice at the start between saving on your own device or syncing across devices. Device-only needs no account at all.
• Do I need internet? No. It works fully offline.
• Where does my information live? On your own device by default. If you choose syncing, it is stored privately to you and reachable from your other devices.
• Can I edit it later? Yes, endlessly. It is designed to be updated for years.
• What if my details change? Change them. The handover page rewrites itself.
• Is it a subscription? No. One-time purchase, yours forever, including future updates to this binder.

Please note

This binder records your wishes and your information. It is not a legal document and does not replace a will, an advance directive or professional advice. Print what matters, sign it, and take it to a solicitor or notary — then note here where that signed copy is kept.

Because this is an instant digital download, it cannot be returned.
