The Reality

No one should navigate grief and paperwork alone

When someone you love passes away, you're suddenly responsible for hundreds of decisions, deadlines, and details — often while in the deepest grief of your life.

From arranging a funeral within hours to closing bank accounts and transferring titles over months, the logistical burden is staggering. Most families have no roadmap, no checklist, and no one to call.

HelloAfterLight changes that.

How It's Built

Frontier AI, founder-built, honest about its limits

HelloAfterLight is the first post-loss coordination platform built AI-native, from the ground up. No call centers, no coordinators on retainer — just frontier AI shaped by a founder who saw the gap and decided it should exist.

Built by a founder who saw the gap

HelloAfterLight is a product of Wolfcraft AI, LLC — a solo-founded studio. After watching families navigate loss without a roadmap, and finding nothing on the market that actually helped, we built this because it should exist.

Powered by frontier AI

Every personalized plan is generated by Anthropic's Claude, working from a knowledge base of state estate rules, probate timelines, tax deadlines, and funeral industry practices — kept current as laws change.

Coordination, not resolution

HelloAfterLight tells you what to do, when, and in what order. For decisions that need actual legal or financial resolution, we hand off to licensed attorneys and CPAs — and we're clear about when that moment arrives.

HelloAfterLight provides informational guidance and coordination tools. It is not legal, financial, or tax advice. For decisions that need a licensed professional, we'll tell you — and help you find one.

The Math

The mistakes HelloAfterLight prevents can cost $50,000+

Paying debts you don’t owe

Collectors pressure families into paying individual debts. In most states, you’re not liable.

Potential savings$5,000–$20,000+

Missing employer life insurance

Many employers provide 1–2x salary as group life insurance. Families never claim it because they didn’t know it existed.

Potential savings$50,000–$200,000

Overpaying for a funeral

Same service can cost $3,000 at one home and $8,000 at another. The FTC requires price quotes over the phone.

Potential savings$3,000–$5,000

Selling the house too fast

Property gets a stepped-up tax basis at death. Selling without understanding this can mean tens of thousands in unnecessary capital gains tax.

Potential savings$10,000–$50,000

Missing the small estate option

Many states let estates under a threshold skip formal probate entirely. Most families don’t know this exists.

Potential savings$2,000–$5,000

Hiring an attorney for everything

An estate attorney costs $3,500–$10,000+. Many tasks don’t require one — HelloAfterLight tells you exactly which do.

Potential savings$2,000–$7,000

HelloAfterLight costs $49.95. One prevented mistake pays for it 100x over.

FAQ

Common questions

When should I start using HelloAfterLight?
As soon as you need help — whether that's immediately after a loss or weeks later when the paperwork starts piling up. There's no wrong time. HelloAfterLight adapts to wherever you are in the process and picks up from there.
Is HelloAfterLight a funeral home or law firm?
Neither. HelloAfterLight is a coordination platform. We guide you through the process and connect you with the right professionals — funeral homes, attorneys, CPAs, financial advisors — when their expertise is needed. Think of us as your knowledgeable guide who knows what needs to happen and who can help.
How does HelloAfterLight actually work?
After a brief intake, HelloAfterLight's AI builds a personalized plan covering everything that needs to happen — organized by urgency and tailored to your state's specific requirements. As you work through tasks, you'll get step-by-step instructions, pre-written letters, provider comparisons, and deadline reminders. When something requires professional expertise, like probate filing or tax implications, HelloAfterLight flags it and connects you with a vetted local specialist.
What happens when I need an actual attorney?
HelloAfterLight knows when a task crosses from administrative into legal territory — and it will tell you. When that happens, we connect you with a local attorney who specializes in estate and probate work. You'll know exactly what to ask them and what documents to bring, so you get the most from every billable hour.
How much does HelloAfterLight cost?
Your expert briefing is always free. Full platform access — including your personalized action plan and deadline tracking — is a one-time payment of $49.95. No subscription, no recurring charges. Use it for as long as you need.
Is there anything to cancel?
There's nothing to cancel — it's a one-time payment. You keep access for as long as you need it.
How long does a typical engagement last?
Most families use HelloAfterLight for 3 to 6 months, depending on the complexity of the estate. Some situations wrap up sooner, others take longer. Since it's a one-time payment, there's no pressure — use it at your own pace.
Is my family's information kept confidential?
Absolutely. We treat your family's information with the utmost care. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We never share your information with third parties without your explicit consent, and we never use your personal data to train AI models.
Do you serve families outside the United States?
Currently, HelloAfterLight is focused on U.S. families, as estate laws, funeral regulations, and administrative processes vary significantly by country. We're exploring international expansion and would love to hear from you if you're interested.
