About Us

Estate Executor was built by AlumnAI from first-hand experience of administering an estate in England and Wales — the forms, the institutions, the waiting, and the sheer number of small decisions an executor has to get right with no guidance and at one of the hardest times of their life.

Nobody warns you, beforehand, just how much administrative work falls to whoever is named executor. There's the Grant of Probate, Inheritance Tax, dozens of banks and pension providers each with their own bereavement process, an estate account to keep straight, and beneficiaries waiting for updates — all while grieving. Most executors have never done this before and won't do it again.

Our aim isn't to replace a solicitor — it's to make sure you know what needs doing, when, and how, so that the help you do pay for goes toward the genuinely complex parts of probate, not the parts a good checklist and a clear explanation can handle. Estate Executor gives you a guided task list built from real probate practice, tracks every institution that needs notifying, helps you value the estate and assess Inheritance Tax, and keeps an Estate Account so you can show beneficiaries exactly where the money went.

Where it makes sense, the tool uses AI to explain things in plain English and answer questions about your specific estate — but the figures themselves always come from deterministic calculations grounded in the data you've entered, never guesswork. It is guidance and organisation, not legal or financial advice, and it is built specifically for estates governed by the law of England and Wales.
