It is software designed to manage the inheritance of your Bitcoin stored with a seed phrase (private key). It also lets you create an emergency backup of your wallet in case you lose your seed. The protocol uses time-locked transactions sent to Will-Executor servers, which broadcast them to the Bitcoin network at the pre-set delivery date.
