Montane Launches Legacy Cloud
BRISBANE, Queensland — November 2, 2015 — Today Montane launched Legacy Cloud, a suite of products and solutions that gives people all the tools and apps they need to create their legacy.
Legacy Cloud can be used by anyone interested in providing a firm structure for how they want their property distributed, their children cared for and their intellectual property used after they die. The suite includes apps and products such as Montane Power of Attorney, which allows you to appoint an attorney to stand make decisions when you are unable to about your health and finances.
Montane CEO, Craig O’Hara says he’s seen the damage caused when people fail to take control of their legacies, “Families end up having to organise all the life affairs of the person who’s died. It’s really very distressing for them.”
O’Hara points out that legacy is especially important to creatives, makers and thinkers who produce intellectual capital in their lifetimes. Intellectual capital is any artifact that is produce by the mind. “Often people dedicate their lives to a pursuit, to wanting to make something that will exist after their gone, like books or films or songs. But then they don’t make legacy plans for that important capital.”
Legacy Cloud gives people the tools to say how they want their intellectual capital used after they die.
O’Hara says when there is direction for someone’s life’s work, it can go on resonating after they die. “And that’s the whole reason for it, isn’t it? Your work is proof you existed.”
Montane Will Trust, a Legacy Cloud product, allows people to appoint a trustee to take care of their intellectual property and name after they die. It also allows them to outline specific directions for how the works are to be used.
Montane Legal has reinvented the delivery of legal services with its MLS system to harness cloud-based technologies. Montane is at the fore of the digital legacy revolution with Estate Ready, Montane Will Trust and the Montane Online Store. Montane Legal is a part of Montane Global, a company that gives customers the tools to create, manage, monitor and monetise their branded lifestyle across multi-channel customer experiences.
Montane Legacy Cloud is set to change how we view legacy planning. Traditionally legacy is seen as something people think about when they are older, Legacy Cloud emphasises the connection between legacy, creativity and social change, something important to each person, no matter what their lifestage.
