For business owners · early access

Where does your digital business live? Let’s find out.

Your website, domain, business email and social accounts all keep your business running. Most owners can’t say where they all are or who can get in. That is normal, and it is fixable.

Digital Deed walks you through it in plain language, then keeps the answers in a record that belongs to you.

We use this address only for early access. No newsletter, and we never share it.

Sound familiar?

Most owners end up here without doing anything wrong.

Someone helpful set up the site. Someone else registered the domain. A different person created the email. Each choice made sense at the time. Together they are a business whose pieces live in other people’s inboxes.

Nobody has to be at fault for you to want a clearer picture. You just want to know what you have and how to reach it.

People usually start when:

  • You are about to hire a new web person, designer or marketer.
  • A provider or employee who handled your accounts is moving on.
  • You lost access to something and are not sure who can get it back.
  • You are buying, selling or taking over a business.
  • You want to do more yourself, with AI tools, and need to know what you are working with.
  • You want someone to be able to step in if you or your usual person is unavailable.

The guided Checkup

Start with what you know. Work out the rest.

You should not need a complete list of accounts before you can get organized. The Checkup asks, you answer, and the picture builds as you go.

The goal: “I finally know what I have, and I know what still needs sorting out.”

Working today

  1. 01

    Start with your website

    Plain questions, one at a time. You do not need a list of accounts to begin.

  2. 02

    Say “I don’t know”

    That is a real answer. It becomes a gap with a concrete next step, such as looking for a renewal bill in your email or asking whoever set it up.

  3. 03

    Review before anything is saved

    Digital Deed proposes records from your answers. You look them over first and decide what goes in.

  4. 04

    Finish with a map

    Each item lands as documented, to find, needs help, or not used, so you can see what is settled and what is not.

One place for the whole picture.

A website is only one piece. Your record keeps the pieces together, with the links between them, so a site carries its domain and hosting with it.

Everything from your visual brand identity to the content you post and stream is part of the same world online. Today the record covers websites, domains, hosting, email, social accounts and subscriptions; a files and brand library is on the roadmap.

Clear ownership

Fewer mysteries about who can do what.

Owning something, managing it and paying for it are three different things. Digital Deed keeps them apart, so nobody has to guess.

  • Three questions, three answers. Who owns it, who has management access, who pays.
  • Documented is not verified. Each record says which one it is, so uncertainty stays visible instead of hiding.
  • No passwords kept. The record points to where a login lives. The secret itself stays where it is.

Your call

Your digital business, organized around you.

Manage it yourself, work with a professional you trust, or find your balance. Change your mind later and the record stays whole.

  1. 01

    Self-managed

    Your workspace, your record. No one else needs to be involved.

  2. 02

    Working together

    Invite a professional in for the specialist work. You decide what they can reach and you approve handoffs.

  3. 03

    Managed for me

    Hand the day-to-day to trusted help and stay informed. End it any time and keep everything you were relying on.

  • Working today

    Invite, or claim

    Invite a professional into your workspace, or claim the one a professional set up for you through your invitation. Either way the record is yours.

  • Working today

    More than one professional

    A designer, a developer and an accountant can each have their place, each with only the access you choose.

  • Working today

    Say yes or no in plain language

    Access requests and handoffs arrive as clear questions. Approve, or decline.

  • Working today

    End well, keep everything

    When a working relationship ends, your record stays. Taking their logins away at outside providers is tracked honestly and never faked.

  • Working today

    Private notes stay private

    A professional’s working notes are kept apart from what you own and from what they choose to share with you.

  • Working today

    Activity history

    A running log of what changed and who changed it, so you are never wondering.

Take it with you

Ready if your head falls off. Or theirs.

Your business should not depend on one person remembering everything, whether that person is you or someone you hired. Keep a copy that anyone you trust can use.

  • Export it. PDF, CSV or JSON, whenever you want.
  • Print your Deed. One clean document with what you have and where it lives.

  • AI discovery assistant
  • Connections beyond GitHub and Vercel
  • AI CMS: “update our hours” with a preview
  • Reporting
  • Audience and email

The assistant that proposes records from a conversation is planned. Nothing would be added without your say-so.

Direct GitHub and Vercel handoffs switch on with early access. Everything else is documented by hand, with next steps.

Roadmap items are plans, not promises of a date.

Why I’m building Digital Deed

Why Bre is building Digital Deed

“In my first year as a freelancer, I worked with a dozen existing small businesses. Not a single business owner could tell me, off the top of their head, where their accounts were and who had access.

I was so surprised. Before we could move forward, we had to figure out what was already there.

As I helped untangle it, I kept thinking: if, for whatever reason, my head falls off, I want to make sure this business owner isn’t left with chaos.

That’s my way of saying their business shouldn’t depend on everything being in my head.

Business owners deserve to understand what they own and choose how it’s managed.”

Bre, founder

A few practical questions.

Do I need a freelancer or agency to use this?

No. You can set up and keep your own workspace without anyone else. If you want help later, you invite a professional into it, and you decide what they can reach.

Does connecting an account prove I own it?

No. Owning something, managing it and paying for it are different things, and a record can be documented without being verified. Digital Deed keeps them apart and shows you which is which. Direct GitHub and Vercel handoffs switch on with early access; more depend on what each provider allows.

What if I don't know where things are?

That is the normal starting point, and the Checkup is built for it. Each “I don’t know” becomes a gap with a next step, so you finish with a map of what you have and what still needs sorting out.

What happens if I stop working with my professional?

You end the relationship and keep everything in your record. Their access inside Digital Deed ends. Removing their logins at outside providers still happens at those providers, so the record tracks whether that was done instead of pretending it was.

Do you store my passwords?

No. The record holds pointers to where a login lives, never the password, key or token itself. Exports leave secrets out too.

Is it finished?

No. It is in early access and still in development. The pieces marked Working today on this page work now. The rest is on the roadmap, with no promised dates.
