Frequently Asked Questions

Three things.

1. Dandie gathers what you already know about. Your kids, your pets, your accounts, your partner, your parents, the people and details that make up your life.
2. She notices the gaps. A Will with no Power of Attorney. A guardian you've never named. Insurance your family couldn't find in an emergency.
3. She acts on what she finds. Sometimes that means creating a document with you. Sometimes it means pointing you to an estate attorney. Either way, you get a next step in plain language, not a form to figure out alone.

No. General-purpose AI tools are built to answer anything, which means they'll happily make something up, or misdirect you. Dandie is built specifically for legacy planning. She knows what to ask, when to guide, and when something is beyond our scope and you need an estate advisor or attorney. Her job isn't to generate answers. It's to understand your family and help you create a plan that reflects it.

Yes. You can talk to Dandie on the web or right from your text messages, wherever you are. Think of it the way you'd text a friend who happens to know this stuff cold—no app to open, no appointment to make. You can get a worry off of your mind at 10:30pm, put your phone down, and pick it back up tomorrow.

The Playbook covers three areas:

1. Paperwork. Your legal documents. Will, Power of Attorney, ID, and all the probate bits and pieces.
2. Practical. The operational stuff your family would need and couldn't guess. Insurance, key contacts, account information, kids' details, pets’ proclivities, and what to do if anything happens.emergency.
3. Personal. Final wishes, and Keepsakes: messages, voice notes, recipes, anything you'd want to leave for the people you love.

Because life doesn't stop after you sign. New baby, new house, new job, an aging parent. The plan you built for the family you were three years ago isn't the plan your family needs now. Dandie notices when something's changed, checks in on your life, and tells you what to do about it, so keeping your plan current–and complete–isn't one more thing you have to remember.

Yes. You can build your Playbook solo or invite your partner in as a Co-Keyholder to create it together. The best plans are the ones the whole household actually knows about, so it isn't one person's job to remember everything.

You decide. You can name Emergency Keyholders to be the trusted people who can access your Playbook if you or a co-keyholder are ever unable to. You control who has emergency access, change it as life progresses, and moderate what your Emergency Keyholders can see.

Multi-generational planning, where you organize across households with parents or adult kids, is rolling out soon.

In Colorado, yes. Dandie can help you create a legal Will and Power of Attorney as part of building your Playbook. In other states, Dandie helps you organize everything else and connects you with an estate attorney for the documents themselves. More states are on the way soon.

The documents Dandelion helps you create in Colorado are attorney-designed and built on Colorado-specific law. This isn't a generic template. Anything you upload to Dandelion retains its authority and purview.

Dandie will let you know how most people in your situation are best served—by attorneys, estate planners, or e-will documents—and will be honest with you about it. She'll guide you through the whole process, and if your situation is more complex—a blended family, a Trust, a business—she'll tell you, and help you find an attorney. Many parents find they don't need one for the basics. Some do. Dandie's job is to help you know which.

That said, Dandelion is not a law firm and cannot provide legal advice. We always recommend having a lawyer look over your docs.

Yes, and for a lot of parents this is the whole reason they're here. Your Will is where you officially name who'd raise your children if something happened to you. It's one of the most important things you can do as a parent.

Yes. New baby, new house—whether it’s a change of address or a change of heart about who's in charge—your plan should keep up, and Dandie helps it stay current. You can update anytime.
