What you leave behind, delivered.
Athar is a secure vault for your final messages — letters, videos, voice notes and important files — delivered to the people you love only after your death is carefully verified. Not a moment before.
Founding members lock in $29/year — forever (regular $49). Free to join, charged only at launch.
How Athar works
Fifteen minutes today. A lifetime of reassurance.
Record your messages
Write letters, record a video right in your browser, attach photos and documents — one for each person, or one for everyone.
Choose your people
Add recipients and decide exactly who receives what. Your spouse, your children, a friend — each sees only what you left them.
Name two guardians
Pick two trusted people who must both independently confirm your passing before anything is ever released.
Live your life
A gentle check-in every now and then — one tap — tells Athar all is well. Everything stays sealed until it truly isn't.
Full transparency
The Athar Timeline — you see exactly what happens, and when
Nothing about Athar is a black box. Every account has a visible timeline with your own dates on it. This is what it takes before a single message is delivered:
Check-in
One tap on an email or text message. Logging in counts too. Traveling or in hospital? Pause or extend anytime.
Gentle escalation
Reminders arrive on independent channels — email and SMS — so one lost email can never start anything.
Your guardians are asked
Both of your trusted guardians are contacted. Each must separately confirm your passing. One person alone can never trigger a release.
The final hold
A last cooling-off period. If you log in — even once — everything stops instantly and we tell you exactly who confirmed what.
Delivery
Your people receive a private, secure invitation: “Someone you love left something for you at Athar.”
Any sign of life resets everything. One login, one tap, at any stage — the entire timeline cancels and starts over. You are always in control.
“What if it fires while I'm alive?”
Built so a false alarm is practically impossible
◈ Multi-channel check-ins
Email and SMS, independently. A spam filter, a lost phone or an inbox you ignore for a month cannot start the timeline on its own.
◈ The two-guardian rule
No single person — not a hacker, not a relative, not us — can trigger a release. Two people you chose must both confirm, separately.
◈ The 7-day final hold
Even after confirmation, nothing moves for a week. Any login cancels everything and alerts you to who did what.
◈ Test it on yourself, free
Run the entire pipeline — miss a check-in, watch the timeline, receive your own messages — delivered only to you, before you pay anything.
مَا حَقُّ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ لَهُ شَيْءٌ يُوصِي فِيهِ، يَبِيتُ لَيْلَتَيْنِ إِلَّا وَوَصِيَّتُهُ مَكْتُوبَةٌ عِنْدَهُ
“It is not permissible for any Muslim who has something to will to stay for two nights without having his last will and testament written and kept ready with him.”
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ — Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim
Preparing what you leave behind is not morbid — it is a sunnah, an act of love and responsibility. Athar helps you fulfill it in minutes: your wasiyya wishes, your advice to your children, your goodbye — kept safe, delivered with dignity.

Questions, answered honestly
Frequently asked
Is Athar a legal will?
No — and we say this clearly. Athar carries your messages, wishes and important information to your loved ones. A legally binding will must follow the laws of your country; we encourage you to have one, and your Athar vault is the perfect place to tell your family where it is.
What if I'm travelling, sick, or just miss a check-in?
Nothing happens. Reminders escalate gently over two weeks across email and SMS, then two guardians must both confirm, then a final 7-day hold applies. Any login at any stage cancels everything instantly. You can also pause check-ins before a long trip.
Can Athar staff read my messages?
Your content is encrypted at rest and in transit, and access is locked down internally. We are honest: this is strong server-side encryption, not yet full end-to-end encryption — true zero-knowledge storage is on our roadmap and we will never claim it before we ship it.
What happens if Athar shuts down?
Our founding promise: if Athar ever ceases operating, every user gets at least 90 days' notice and one-click export of everything they stored. Your trace is yours, not ours.
Is this islamically appropriate?
Writing your wasiyya and leaving guidance for your family is an emphasised sunnah. Athar is a vessel for it — your charitable wishes, your advice to your children, your debts and amanat, your goodbye. We are building with the guidance of Islamic scholars and will always name our advisors.
When does Athar launch?
We are building now with a small group of founding members. Join the list — you'll get early access first, and your $29/year founding price is locked for life. You are charged nothing until launch.
