Trove

Business Services, Finance, Legal

We take estate planning, a traditionally boring and scary topic, and put our own spin on it so that it's more approachable. We walk users through a guided questionnaire that educates and answers questions people didn't even know they had. At the end, we generate a will for you that is customized to your needs and cheaper than others on the market.

Pack Up + Go

Travel & Hospitality

Pack Up + Go plans curated vacations around the United States. The catch? Travelers don’t discover their destination until the day they depart! Clients complete a pre-trip survey to provide trip dates, budget, history + preferences, and Pack Up + Go takes it from there. One week prior to departure, travelers receive the forecast + packing tips. On the day of their trip, they open an envelope to reveal their destination!
