What Estate Engine is
Estate Engine is a web workspace that combines client intake and estate-plan drafting for solo and small-firm attorneys. Its intake builder supports conditional logic, private links, auto-save, and reminder emails. Firms can brand the client intake experience with a logo, font, and colors. For drafting, attorneys can upload Word documents or use editable state-specific templates covering trusts, trust certificates, wills, financial powers of attorney, and health care directives. Drafts are generated deterministically from attorney-approved templates; Estate Engine says it does not use generative AI to draft documents.
The service says it works in any U.S. jurisdiction, using state-specific templates or customization for a firm's documents. Its free trial requires no credit card and allows unlimited tests. The homepage says users can begin sending intake links in minutes with default materials, and they can request help setting up customizations. Plans include pay as you go at $50, paid once, billed when a client completes intake and a draft is generated; monthly options start at $200 a month. The service agreement identifies the maker as Estate Engine, LLC, a Utah limited liability company, and says customer data is encrypted in transit and at rest and is not sold or used to train AI or machine-learning models.
