The System for
Bitcoin Self-Custody
Setup. Monitor. Maintain.
Finally know you're doing it right.
EU-based. Fully self-custodial. Every key is controlled by you or a signer you choose.
Self-custody doesn't end at setup
"I set up multisig... now what?"
You bought the hardware wallets. You wrote down the seeds. But who checks if your backups still work? Who notices if a key holder goes silent? What's the plan if something happens to you?
"I forget how it works after a few months"
You did everything right. Then life happened. Now you need to make a transaction and you're staring at your setup wondering what goes where.
"What happens to my Bitcoin if I'm gone?"
Your family knows you have Bitcoin. But could they actually access it? Do they know where the keys are? Would they know what to do?
Keystody: Vault governance for the long term
Keystody is the first platform built for what happens AFTER you set up multisig. We help you monitor key health, track backups, coordinate with co-signers, and ensure your Bitcoin is accessible — to you now, and to your family later.
Key Health Monitoring
See when each key was last verified, and get reminded when one falls overdue. Keystody tracks what you have checked — checking it is still yours to do.
Recovery Documents
Export your vault configuration as a standard output descriptor. Works with Sparrow, Bitcoin Core, and more — use them alongside Keystody, or recover without us if you ever need to.
Shared Vaults
Invite family or partners as co-signers — people who help approve transactions but can never act alone. Coordinate without ever sharing private keys.
Access From Anywhere
Web-based platform. Check your vault health from any device, anywhere in the world. No laptop dependency.
Self-custody, without doing it alone.
The best of both worlds: full control like DIY, with the guidance you need.

“We hold zero of your keys. Your vault, your keys, your Bitcoin.
Export your recovery file and access your funds without us — anytime. Or use them together — Keystody adds the system around the vault you already manage.”
Built for peace of mind
Every key gets a health score (0-100) based on: • Last verification date • Backup confirmation • Geographic distribution • Lifecycle status Quarterly reminders ensure you never forget to check. If something's wrong, you'll know.

The plans above are for individuals and households.
Organizations and their advisors are set up through a conversation, not a plan.
Companies & foundations
The organization owns the vault. Administration and signing stay separate, and your accountant gets read-only access.
How organizations use Keystody →Bitcoin treasuries
Keys held by your own officers, no platform key, and holdings your auditor can verify independently.
See the treasury setup →Advisors & accountants
Client-granted watch-only access to the vaults you advise on. No custody, no liability.
How we work with advisors →Founder Access cohort
Keystody Founder Access is open to a limited cohort of early adopters who want to secure Bitcoin governance infrastructure before we scale onboarding. Members lock in today's pricing for 12 months, access the platform as it reaches full launch, and work directly with the founder — not a support queue — when questions arise.
This is not a discount program. It is a structured early-access arrangement for people who understand that multisig governance is long-term infrastructure, not a tool you spin up and abandon.
Founder Access cohort members receive: 12-month price lock on the tier they join, direct founder support channel, and priority access to features as they ship.
Lock your pricing for 12 months and get direct founder support from day one.
US multisig services typically cost $250–$2,100 per year. EU advisory services charge €2,000–€4,500 per year — and most of them hold a platform key. Keystody starts at €0, holds zero of your keys, and is priced as a subscription, not a custody arrangement.
Privacy boundary
Keystody never asks for seed phrases or private keys. Your private key material never leaves your devices. We coordinate signatures using your vault's public descriptor — which is what makes recovery without us possible at any time.
Built for sovereignty
Zero Platform Keys
We hold zero of your keys, and never have. No Keystody key sits in your 2-of-3, so we can never reach the signing threshold.
EU-Based
Headquartered in the Netherlands, running on EU infrastructure in AWS Frankfurt. Self-custodial by design — every key is controlled by you or a signer you choose.
Encrypted at Rest
Wallet metadata is encrypted with AWS KMS before it reaches our database. A stolen database or backup does not expose your xpubs.
Full Portability
Export your vault as a standard output descriptor. Your recovery path does not depend on Keystody continuing to exist.
Audit Trails
Every action logged. Know who did what, when. Essential for families and businesses.
