About Everplans:

We're a New York City-based technology company recently acquired by National Guardian Life Insurance Company (NGL) that helps people organize, share, and keep critical information, wishes, and documents they need, and that their family may need, up-to-date and at their fingertips. Through a combination of original content, a personalized guidance engine, and an intuitive digital vault, people can say goodbye to sticky notes around the computer, old file folders underneath the bed, and out-of-date paperwork.

Everplans is sold both direct-to-consumer as well as through financial professionals to their clients, insurance and financial services organizations to their policyholders and customers, and as a benefit employers offer their employees.
