Stewardship Pricing
Three moments.
One archive.
Most families move through all three.
Begin active. Rest when life demands it.
Leave something permanent.
The Founding Session
The Founding
Every archive begins with a Founding Session.
Your Legacy Guide conducts a 90-minute session that establishes the foundation of your entity. Your voice. Your values. The specific way you see the world.
The one-time founding investment of $2,500 covers this session, your archive initialization, and your first-year entity calibration.
This is where your archive begins. Everything that follows builds on it.
Archive Architecture Build
Your permanent digital estate structure, configured for generational transfer and legal standing.
Legal Instrument Review
Compatibility assessment with your existing will, trust, and estate documents. Attorney-ready output.
Family Network Initialization
Contributor onboarding for up to 15 family members. Roles assigned. Access levels configured.
Founding Essence Session
Your first live family labeling session, guided by a Senior Legacy Guide. 90 minutes. This is where it becomes real.
AI-Processed Data Migration
Every photograph filtered, deduplicated, dated, and sequenced by our AI pipeline before it reaches the labeling interface.
Custodian Designation
Your archive's legal custodian assigned and documented with formal estate standing.

Common Questions
What You Should Know.
The Founding is a one-time setup investment covering the full onboarding process: archive architecture, legal framework review, and your initial Essence Mapping session. It is paid once at the start of your relationship with Basalith. Your annual stewardship plan begins after The Founding is complete. Learn more about what happens in your Founding session →
