Dividing a loved one's belongings, together
Divide what was left, without losing each other.
Partage is a private web app where a family divides a loved one's belongings together: list what's there, say what each of you would like, and settle it one item at a time.

Partage is in early access. We're still shaping it, so you may find a few rough edges.
A list in a group chat can turn into a fight.
Dividing a parent's things is often the hardest part of settling an estate. Nobody means harm, but grief, memory and fairness all arrive at once. Partage gives that conversation somewhere calmer to happen.
We built Partage after seeing our parents divide our grandparents' belongings through Word documents and WhatsApp photos, with the same necklace numbered differently in every message. Read our story.
How to divide belongings without a falling-out.
Catalogue what's there
Add items and photos as you go. Everyone sees the same list.
Everyone shares their wishes
Each heir marks what they'd like, whenever suits them.
See the overlaps, talk them through
When two people want the same thing, Partage shows it as an overlap so you can talk it through.
Agree, item by item
Mark each item agreed, with the conversation that led there kept alongside it.
Built for the family, not the paperwork.
Overlaps, not conflicts
Two people wanting the same thing is normal. Partage marks the item as loved by two and gives it a thread of its own, so you can talk it over.
Everyone included
Every heir sees the same list, with a photo and the story behind each item, and adds their own wishes from wherever they live.
A record you keep
Each item you agree on goes onto the Agreement page, with who it goes to and when, for everyone in the estate to see.
Private to your family
Only the people you invite can see your estate. No ads, no trackers, and photos are kept in private storage.
Deciding who gets what, while you're here to say why.
Some people would rather their family didn't have to guess. In Planning mode, you list your own belongings with a photo and the story behind each one, note who you hope will have them, and write a letter to your family in your own words.
- List your things and the stories behind them
- Note who you hope each one goes to
- Write a letter to your family, and print it if you'd like
- It stays private to you until the time comes
When the time comes, your family sees your hopes as gentle notes on each item and still decides together.
When you sign up, choose “Planning my own estate”. Planning is free during early access.

Free to set up. Heirs never pay.
Build the estate's list for as long as you need, free. You pay once, for the whole estate, when you invite your family. Everyone you invite joins free.
