Our Story

Built in South Africa.
Built for South Africa.

SimplyWill™ was built by South Africans who saw a gap that no one else was filling — and decided to fill it properly.

Every law firm in the country with a Wills department was — and many still are — drafting Wills in Microsoft Word, storing files in physical folders, and manually tracking original documents with spreadsheets and sticky notes.

Not because they wanted to. Because there was no better option. No software built specifically for the South African Wills department. No system that understood the bilingual reality of our legal system. No platform designed for the constraints of a real South African law firm environment — offline networks, no IT department, POPIA obligations.

"There was no software built specifically for the South African Wills department. So we built it from scratch — for the way the industry actually works."

We built SimplyWill™ to change that. A purpose-built platform that understands South African law, the bilingual reality of our legal system, and the practical constraints of a real law firm environment.

Offline-first. POPIA-compliant. No international software awkwardly adapted for South Africa. Just the right tool, built from scratch, for the South African Wills department.

What we stand for.

01 / BUILT FOR SA

South African Law, First

SimplyWill™ was designed around South African testamentary law from day one — not adapted from a foreign template. Every clause, every marital regime, every compliance requirement reflects SA legal practice.

02 / PRIVACY

Your Data Stays With You

Offline-first by design. Your client data never leaves your firm's premises. No cloud dependency, no third-party access, no data centre on another continent. POPIA compliance built in — not bolted on.

03 / SIMPLICITY

No IT Department Required

SimplyWill™ installs in minutes, updates itself silently, and requires no administrator rights. Legal professionals should be drafting Wills — not managing software infrastructure.

SimplyWill™ — South Africa's first.
Built for legal professionals.
