For your business

Help your business carry on when you can’t respond.

Leave a trusted colleague the system map, supplier contacts and instructions they would need. Check-ins keep the delivery on hold; a missed deadline and safety period come before release.

How it works

Write your instructions

Choose a trusted person. Write a short note and preview it before turning anything on.

Keep checking in

Confirm you are checking in from our reminder email. Your instructions stay on hold.

They get access if you stop

After a missed deadline, reminders and your extra waiting time, your person can verify their email and read the note.

ZeroLatch responds to missed check-ins. It does not detect death or verify an emergency.

Prepare free. Automatic delivery from US$9/month.

One set of instructions for one person. A card-required 14-day trial begins when setting up automatic delivery. Your selected plan renews unless cancelled.

Useful details for business

If you were unavailable, would your colleague know who pays the bills, how to reach suppliers, or where recovery instructions are kept? Leave them a short guide to the people, systems and next steps. Keep everyday account access in your existing business tools.

ZeroLatch is not a privileged-access manager, identity provider, backup platform, incident pager, monitoring service or source of corporate authority. A released runbook must still be used under approved business and legal procedures.

What to do first

Name the systems to inspect, customers or staff to notify, external providers to contact and decisions that must wait for an authorised owner.

  • Primary and alternate incident contacts
  • Critical service and dependency inventory
  • Safe order of operations and explicit stop conditions
Where to find recovery help

Explain where approved recovery instructions and keys are kept, and who is allowed to use them. Use existing business access controls instead of sharing a master password.

  • Cloud, registrar, email and billing recovery paths
  • Offline key and backup-code locations
  • Rotation and revocation steps after access
The right information for each person

Assign a delivery to one intended person. Create separate deliveries when a co-founder, executor or technical responder should receive different material.

  • Compartmentalised information by responsibility
  • Optional recipient email verification during setup
  • A clear explanation of recipient limits
A delayed absence trigger

The 1-day minimum check-in is processed on a daily lifecycle run, so ZeroLatch remains a continuity tool rather than urgent incident response. Adding a safety period reduces accidental delivery after a temporary lockout or missed email.

  • 1, 7, 30, 60, 90 or 180-day check-in options
  • 0, 1, 7, 14, 21 or 30-day safety period
  • Separate monitoring and paging remain essential
Is ZeroLatch a business password manager?

No. A password manager supports normal credential use and sharing. ZeroLatch is for selected information that should remain on hold until a sustained absence passes the check-in and safety periods.

Can ZeroLatch replace PAM or IAM?

No. PAM and IAM manage identity, policy, privileged sessions and routine access. Conditional delivery may document a break-glass recovery path, but it should sit alongside those controls.

Is the shortest schedule suitable for an outage?

No. Use monitoring, an on-call system and an incident response plan for minutes or hours. ZeroLatch is designed for longer-horizon absence and continuity scenarios.

Should a delivery contain the cloud root password?

Prefer delegated administrator roles, hardware keys, provider recovery and controlled break-glass mechanisms. If a secret must be included, minimise its scope, separate recovery factors and require rotation immediately after use.

Does release authorise the recipient to run the business?

No. Company documents, board or owner approvals, employment responsibilities, provider policies and applicable law determine authority. ZeroLatch only attempts to deliver the prepared information.
