The Digital Afterlife Planning Co. reframes end-of-life digital planning as something familiar, approachable, and community-oriented. Using the narrative of a fictional real-estate agency, the informational documents and reflective probes encourage Gen-Zs to view their online identities as 'digital estates,' prompting playful yet structured reflection on managing digital assets. By making an abstract and taboo topic more relatable, the project opens conversations around digital afterlife planning within the community.
