Legado

Edinburgh
Seeking investment

Legado is the leading digital tool to help you securely organise, store and share your most important life information and documents.

Our intuitive digital vault allows you to collaborate with family and advisers in creating your life, legacy and estate plan. Your family and advisers will have all the information they need in the event of an emergency. Through a combination of original content and guides, interactive tools, a personalised guidance engine and an intuitively organised digital vault, Legado assists people in organising all the important details about their lives and affairs in one secure, accessible place.

Clients are able to delegate ‘Nominees’, such as their solicitor or accountant, family members or executors of their Will. The information is controlled by the client and they decide as to who this information is shared with and how much information is shared (clients are able to share entire libraries or individual folders). Access can be granted or revoked at any time and specific written instructions can be included.

Legado is only available through professional advisers.  Advisers can use the digital tool to build deeper and more meaningful relationships with their clients.

The digital tool also helps advisers to create a natural introduction to their client’s family, facilitating intergenerational relationships and retention of assets when a client passes away. The intuitively organised vault will also help to identify gaps in a client’s planning, ensuring they are fully prepared for the future and what life may bring. It is also possible to co-brand Legado, helping demonstrate true value for an adviser’s advice proposition.

At Legado, we have broad expertise across a range of different fields. Our founder and advisory board have worked with some of the largest organisations in the world helping them to solve complex challenges in addition to high growth technology start-ups.

We are passionate about helping people be more organised and better prepared for the future. We understand the importance of data and strive to enable consumers to make decisions about how they use and share their data.
