How succession works →Acquisition
When you buy the company, you buy how it was run.
For buyers. When the deal closes, the seller’s judgment usually leaves with them. Basalith captures how the operator reasons before the handoff, so the earnout assumptions survive the transition.
Engagements start at $50,000, scaled to the size and complexity of the transaction.
Priced against the value at risk in the deal, as part of diligence, not as software.
The Founding Session
The Founding
Every archive begins with a Founding Session.
For a business, the operator works through the decision frameworks that built the company in an extended guided session with a Senior Legacy Guide. For an individual or a family, the session captures voice, values, and the specific way someone sees the world.
It establishes the foundation of the archive. Everything that follows builds on it.
Your archive runs on two permanent layers: one that holds every fact and memory you have deposited, and one that learns how you express, reason, and decide. Neither replaces the other.
Archive Architecture Build
Your permanent archive structure, configured for transfer and long-term standing.
Document Compatibility Review
Assessment against your existing legal and succession documents. Attorney-ready output.
Contributor Network Setup
Onboarding for up to 15 contributors. Roles assigned. Access levels configured.
Founding Session
Your first guided session, led by a Senior Legacy Guide. This is where it becomes real.
Data Migration
Your records filtered, deduplicated, dated, and sequenced before they reach the labeling interface.
Custodian Designation
Your archive's custodian assigned and formally documented.
$5,000
Business founding, one-time
Individual and family founding is $2,500. Annual plan selected separately. Executed by a Senior Legacy Guide.
The second door · Individuals and families
