HeirLine is an AI agent that automates forensic genealogy research. It traces family trees, searches public records, and identifies rightful heirs for probate cases.
Traditional heir search firms still rely on manual genealogy research, courthouse visits, and weeks of phone calls. Attorneys wait months for results and pay steep contingency fees. The process is slow, opaque, and expensive.
Genealogists trace family trees by hand through vital records, obituaries, and courthouse archives. A single case can take 4-12 weeks.
Many heir search firms charge a percentage of the heir's inheritance. On a $200K estate, that's $40K-$70K in finder's fees.
Attorneys hand off cases to third-party firms and wait. No dashboards, no status updates, no transparency into the research process.
Enter the decedent's name, county, date of death, and any known family information. HeirLine takes it from there.
HeirLine searches death records, vital statistics, obituary databases, property records, and public data sources to build a complete kinship map.
Receive a documented report with identified heirs, relationship chains, contact information, and source citations ready for court filing.
