Worth every penny
Farra costs £99, but executors face unlimited personal liability for mistakes—even honest ones. We help you avoid the costly errors that could affect you for years, whilst providing support through one of life's hardest moments.
Death admin shouldn't be this hard
At the hardest time in your life, you're expected to make complex decisions with serious consequences—whilst your mind is in a whirl.
You're personally responsible
As executor, you're personally responsible for the estate—which is why many people hire solicitors for £7,000+. But even straightforward estates need careful handling to avoid mistakes.
You don't know what you don't know
Hidden deadlines, legal requirements, and tax implications you never knew existed. 33% of executors knew nothing about the process when they started.
You're making decisions whilst grieving
Attention to detail matters, but your mind is elsewhere. Every decision feels heavy because the stakes are high and you're doing this alone.
The reality: Missing critical deadlines can cost estates thousands in lost tax relief. Simple mistakes can mean months of delays. You need guidance, but £7,000 for a solicitor feels like too much for a straightforward estate.
What people are saying
We wanted to make sure Farra works for you. So before launching, we tested it with real families going through bereavement. Here's what they told us.
“I used Farra's checklist after my mum passed. It helped me stay on track when everything felt overwhelming.
“Tried the early beta and couldn't believe how clear it all was. Finally something that speaks human.
“The probate checklist was exactly what I needed. I had no idea where to start—this broke it all down step by step.

Your death admin questions, answered
Clear, honest answers to the questions families face during the hardest times
- Farra is a digital assistant that helps you manage death admin in the UK. We guide you through everything from registering a death and applying for probate to notifying banks and closing accounts—calmly, clearly, and step by step.
- Start by getting a medical certificate of cause of death. This allows you to register the death and begin making arrangements like the funeral.
- That’s completely normal. Farra is designed to break the process down into manageable steps. You can take your time, come back later, and share tasks with others.
- Probate is usually needed if the person owned property or had bank accounts or investments in their sole name. If everything was jointly held or of low value, you may not need it.
- Start with government departments using Tell Us Once, then contact banks, insurers, utility providers, landlords, subscription services, and any organisations linked to the person.
