The best tools for sending an email if you go silent (blog.alcazarsec.com)

The article reviews a small set of tools that can send emails (and sometimes files or messages via other channels) after you stop checking in, distinguishing them from account-recovery features. It recommends Google Inactive Account Manager for Gmail-focused continuity, Alcazar Dead Man’s Switch for configurable check-in alerts, Dead Man’s Switch for a simpler long-running option, LastSignal for self-hosted open-source setups, and advises caution with DeadMansSwitch.email due to thinner documentation. It also clarifies that these tools don’t replace legal estate planning and only address the timing/trigger problem when silence should send a message.
