Inheritance: Intermediate Tier
Overview
The Inheritance tier is UnoLock’s intermediate plan, designed for individuals and families planning their digital legacy, offering secure storage and succession tools for critical data like passwords, cryptocurrency assets, and family records. Priced at $3/month or $36/year (0% discount), it provides 1GB of base storage (expandable at $1/GB/month) and supports up to 10 access keys, starting with 1 included. Built on a zero-knowledge, post-quantum secure architecture, the Inheritance tier includes the LegacyLink Inheritance System for seamless asset transfer and Reply-Only Safe2Safe Messaging, ensuring long-term data continuity with robust privacy.
Who Is This For?
The Inheritance tier is ideal for individuals, families, or solo professionals planning their digital legacy, ensuring secure transfer of critical data like passwords, cryptocurrency keys, or legal documents to heirs or trusted parties. It suits estate planners and long-term data holders needing scalable storage and access without advanced features like Plausible Deniability.
What Does It Offer?
The Inheritance tier provides enhanced security and inheritance features, including: - All Free Tier Features: Biometric & FIDO2 Authentication, Client-Side Local File Encryption, Post-Quantum Encryption, LockoutGuard, Single-Region Redundancy. - LegacyLink Inheritance System: Automated, secure handover of vault access to designated successors, triggered by custom inactivity thresholds (e.g., 3 months). - Safe2Safe Messaging (Reply-Only Model): Receive secure messages from paid-tier vaults and reply once initiated; recipients pay for file storage. - 1GB Base Storage: Expandable at $1/GB/month, suitable for family records or digital assets. - 1 Device Key (Expandable to 10): Starts with 1 key, with up to 9 additional keys available (charges apply), capped at 10 maximum. - Single-Region Redundancy: Secure data storage in one region, ensuring protection without global replication.
Why Is This Important?
The Inheritance tier is critical because it: - Ensures Digital Continuity: LegacyLink enables secure transfer of digital assets, preventing loss of critical data like cryptocurrency keys or family records after death or incapacitation. - Offers Scalable Storage: 1GB base storage, expandable at $1/GB/month, supports growing digital estates without complexity. - Maintains Privacy and Control: Zero-knowledge architecture and Reply-Only Safe2Safe Messaging ensure data remains private, with users controlling access (up to 10 keys). - Simplifies Estate Planning: Provides a clear, secure solution for digital succession, addressing a growing need for managing digital legacies in a privacy-conscious world. This tier’s focus on secure asset transfer aligns with UnoLock’s mission to empower users across their data lifecycle.
How Does It Work?
- LegacyLink Inheritance System: Users designate successors and set an inactivity timer (e.g., 3 months). If the vault remains inactive, access is securely released to successors, ensuring seamless transfer of passwords, crypto keys, or documents.
- Storage: 1GB base storage supports encrypted files like legal records or seed phrases, with real-time expansion at $1/GB/month for additional needs.
- Access Keys: Includes 1 device key, expandable to 10 maximum (charges for additional keys), unlike the Free tier’s fixed 1 key. Keys enable family or trusted parties to access the vault securely.
- Messaging: Receive messages from paid-tier vaults; reply once a contact is initiated. File storage costs are borne by the recipient’s vault.
- Encryption and Redundancy: Data is encrypted client-side with post-quantum protection and stored in a single secure region, balancing security and simplicity.
- Recovery: LockoutGuard ensures recovery via offline QR codes or fallback tokens, preventing lockouts without compromising privacy.
Use Cases
- Families: Securely store and share family records, such as wills, financial accounts, or crypto assets, ensuring heirs can access them via LegacyLink after a set inactivity period.
- Solo Professionals: Plan digital succession for business-critical data like client contracts or API keys, enabling trusted colleagues to inherit access securely.
- Crypto Investors: Safeguard seed phrases or private keys in a 1GB vault, designating heirs to inherit assets, with expandable storage for additional records and up to 10 access keys for flexibility.
