Who it's for

Households and couples

So either of you could pick up where the other left off.

Caring for a parent

So a sibling, neighbour or paid carer can step in on a bad day.

Living alone

So the people you trust know where to look.

Why Wherewith exists

When something happens, nobody should have to go hunting.

Families lose hours looking for the doctor's number, the medicine list or the folder with the will. Most binders answer this with hundreds of pages. Wherewith gives you the pages that matter, in the order you'd need them.

If something has happened now

  1. 1Call 911 first.
  2. 2Show paramedics the emergency page.
  3. 3Call the people on the contacts page.
  4. 4Follow First steps.

You do not need to read anything else today.

  • Emergency information
  • Emergency contacts

  • Wallet and bag cards
  • Hand it off to the people who'd need it

Private by design

We left out the pages that put families at risk.

Many binders ask you to write down passwords and account numbers on paper. Wherewith never does. Each sensitive page says where something is kept, not the number itself.

  • Not included: Passwords
  • Not included: PINs
  • Not included: Social Security numbers
  • Not included: Full account numbers
  • Not included: Door and alarm codes

We never see what you write. Your binder stays on your device or on paper.

The collection

Inside the binder

Locators record where things are kept, never account numbers or passwords.

Type into it like a form. Save. Print when you're ready.

The fillable file works in free Adobe Acrobat Reader on a computer, tablet or phone. Print versions are included too.

Fictional sample data

Emergency information

SAFE TO DISPLAY. Leave off ID, insurance and account numbers, and door or alarm codes.
