About Elayne
Elayne is building the modern estate settlement platform. Estate settlement is a $250B+ annual market, with $80T+ in assets expected to transfer over the next 25 years. But after a death, families and executors have to spend 400+ hours manually identifying, organize, and distribute everything that was left behind like: financial accounts, debts, property, insurance, legal documents, incorporating juristidi ation requirements and family context. Elayne is the first platform to surface verified assets and debts for precisely this moment, then turing our discovery into a clear inheritance map. We work directly with families and executors, and with the partners who support them: funeral homes, hospice and aftercare providers, attorneys, and financial institutions. The company was founded by Adria, a former large-cap investor who experienced the problem firsthand, and Rebecca, a repeat fintech and mental health founder who left her master’s program in psychology at Harvard to launch Elayne. Together, they bring financial rigor, technical execution, and lived empathy to a massive but deeply human category. Backed by Y Combinator and Accel, we are now an 8-person team based in NYC.
