Honest pricing
One price, no upsells
We do not split essential documents across tiers or sell powers of attorney as an add-on. One flat price covers the complete package, including lifetime edits — and you can build everything for free before you decide to pay.
Complete
Everything in one place
A will on its own leaves gaps. WillCraft.me generates the documents your family actually needs — your will, both powers of attorney, an asset schedule, and executor instructions with a probate action plan — so nothing critical is missing when it matters most. It is more than a will: it is a personalized action plan for you and your executor, built from your real situation and asset types.
Built for business owners
One of the few platforms that supports business owners
Because WillCraft.me supports dual wills for Ontario and British Columbia, it can help owners of private corporations keep business assets — shares, shareholder loans, and intercompany balances — out of probate. Most online will services offer a single will and can't structure an estate this way, so business owners are left to a lawyer. WillCraft.me handles it at the same flat price.
Private by design
Your information stays protected
Your personal and asset details are protected with field-level AES-256 encryption — each sensitive field is individually encrypted inside our database, not just on the disk. Even if our database were breached, your information would be unreadable without a separate key. We never ask for your bank passwords or login credentials.
Frequently asked questions
- What makes WillCraft.me different from other online will services?
- WillCraft.me bundles a complete estate plan into one flat price: your will, powers of attorney, asset schedule, and executor instructions — plus features most platforms do not offer, like dual wills for Ontario and BC and Executor Direct Access. There are no tiers or add-on fees.
- Is an online will from WillCraft.me legally valid?
- A will made with WillCraft.me is designed to meet the requirements of the province you select. As with any will, it becomes valid once you print it and sign it according to your province’s rules — in most provinces that means signing in front of two witnesses. WillCraft.me guides you through those steps.
- Which provinces does WillCraft.me support?
- WillCraft.me currently supports Ontario, with Alberta and British Columbia templates prepared and rolling out. Each province gets documents written to its own terminology and statutes, not a generic template.
- Do I need a lawyer?
- In most provinces you can make a valid will without a lawyer. WillCraft.me is built for straightforward and moderately complex estates. If your situation is highly complex — for example, international assets or contested family circumstances — it is wise to also consult a professional.
