Origin Estate Planning

Preserve authority over identity beyond a lifetime.

Origin Identities can outlive careers, contracts, platforms, organizations, and even the people they represent. Origin helps people, agencies, estates, trustees, and families define who controls each identity after retirement, incapacity, death, succession, or rights transfer.

Legacy Authority

Identity Succession Record

Prepared

Identity succession

Define who controls each Origin Identity after retirement, incapacity, death, transfer, or organizational succession.

Permanent boundaries

Preserve restrictions around applications, licensing, persona use, memory access, topics, endorsements, audiences, tone, and legacy reputation.

Long-term governance

Identity Links, application permissions, licenses, revenue rights, approvals, and revocations remain tied to the governed Origin Identity.

The estate problem

AI creates new identity assets — and new succession risk.

Estates have always managed name, image, likeness, music, film, performance, publicity, endorsement, and royalty rights. Origin adds a new layer: governed Origin Identities that can represent personal, professional, creator, estate, brand, agent, or application roles long after the original person or organization is no longer actively managing them.

01

Who controls each identity?

Define whether authority over a specific Origin Identity passes to heirs, trustees, a foundation, a company, an estate representative, or another rights holder.

02

What remains prohibited?

Preserve permanent exclusions around applications, data access, memory use, AI-generated representation, sensitive subjects, endorsements, tone, and commercial categories.

03

How does value flow?

Connect licensing revenue, usage fees, royalties, residuals, approved partners, charities, family beneficiaries, or trust structures to governed identity usage.

Legacy governance model

Origin Identities should survive every platform that uses them.

Origin treats the Human Anchor, Organization Anchor, and Origin Identity relationships as the enduring authority layer. Applications, licenses, integrations, and commercial experiences may change over time, but succession authority and permanent boundaries remain attached to each governed identity.

Succession

Transfer authority

Define when and how control moves from the Human Anchor or Organization Anchor to authorized representatives, trustees, heirs, estates, or foundations.

Restrictions

Preserve final intent

Maintain durable restrictions that cannot be bypassed by future platforms, agents, partners, models, or commercial opportunities.

Revenue

Route value responsibly

Support identity-specific licensing structures that direct revenue to heirs, estates, charitable foundations, partners, or other authorized beneficiaries.

Evidence

Document decisions

Preserve Anchor changes, Identity Links, approvals, license changes, governance decisions, revocations, and disputes across long periods of time.

Life events and transitions

Estate management is not only about death.

Origin Identity authority may need to change when a person retires, changes representation, sells rights, creates a trust, becomes incapacitated, transfers ownership, joins or leaves an organization, or limits future commercial participation. Origin is designed to support those transitions without losing the governed identity record.

Retirement

Limit future use of one or more Origin Identities while preserving approved legacy, educational, archival, or charitable uses.

Rights transfer

Move ownership or approval authority for specific Origin Identities to a company, trust, estate, family office, or other rights holder.

Incapacity

Activate pre-defined Identity Links if the Human Anchor can no longer personally approve identity use.

Posthumous use

Govern future identity use with clear boundaries, beneficiaries, approvals, revocation rights, and audit records.

Agency and organization relevance

Representatives can help identity owners prepare before succession becomes urgent.

Agencies, organizations, trustees, and family offices are often closest to the commercial and reputational value of an identity. Origin gives them a way to help identity owners think ahead: which Origin Identities should exist, who should control them later, what should be monetized, what should be protected, and what should never be simulated.

During the client’s lifetime

Document identity preferences, permissions, exclusions, successor authority, and long-term licensing intent while the Human Anchor can still express it directly.

During representation changes

Preserve continuity when agents, managers, firms, trustees, organizations, or rights administrators change.

Across generations

Maintain auditable Origin Identities and Identity Links that support long-term stewardship instead of one-off access or licensing decisions.

Legacy rules

An Origin Identity can carry final instructions forward.

Successor approval

Only named trustees, heirs, estate representatives, foundations, or Organization Anchors can approve new use.

Permanent exclusions

Certain topics, applications, endorsements, political uses, memory access, or persona contexts remain prohibited indefinitely.

Approved purpose

Educational, archival, charitable, memorial, or licensed uses may remain active under defined restrictions.

Beneficiary routing

Future identity, licensing, or application value can be routed according to the approved estate, trust, foundation, or royalty structure.

Legacy planning

Origin Identities need a succession plan before AI makes one by default.

Origin Estate Planning helps identity owners, agencies, organizations, rights holders, and families protect authority, preserve intent, govern future use, and keep legacy from being reduced to unauthorized simulation.

This is where Origin demonstrates long-term depth: not only creating an identity today, but preserving the authority, values, boundaries, links, and economic rights attached to that identity for decades.
