Sparky Fetch vs Trustworthy
Sparky Fetch and Trustworthy both keep a family's important documents in one private place. The difference is automation. Sparky runs OCR on whatever you upload, files it for you, and answers questions across everything in plain language. Trustworthy is a guided vault: you upload into ready-made checklists, and its newer Inbox AI proposes where to file for you to confirm.Comparison as of July 2026
What is Trustworthy?
Trustworthy calls itself "the Family Operating System" — a secure vault for a household's IDs, money, property, insurance, taxes, passwords, and legal and legacy information. It sells to families and, notably, to financial advisors and family offices as a client-facing tool. Its organizing core is guided checklists ("Family IDs") that prompt you to upload each record. It runs on iOS, Android, and the web.
What is Sparky Fetch?
Sparky Fetch is a private, AI-powered family document archive — an archive you can talk to. Drop in a photo or PDF, or forward a document from Telegram; Sparky reads it with OCR, classifies and files it automatically, and lets your household search by a name, date, or amount — or just ask for the record you need. It runs on the web and in Telegram, and is in private, invite-only beta.

Which should a family choose?
If you want a broad, mature vault with estate-planning extras — password storage, one-off secure share links, legacy access after death — and you don't mind filing documents into checklists, Trustworthy covers a lot of ground and is available today.
If your real problem is a pile of paper you never sorted, Sparky is built for that: photograph it, let Sparky read and file it, then find anything by asking — including straight from Telegram. The two can even sit side by side; they solve different halves of the same headache.
Bring me the crumpled ones too.Frequently asked questions
Is Sparky Fetch a Trustworthy alternative?
Yes — both keep a family's documents in one private, shared place. Sparky's focus is automatic intake: it runs OCR on a photo or PDF, files it for you, and lets you search or just ask across everything. Trustworthy is a structured vault with estate and advisor features. As of July 2026, Sparky is in private, invite-only beta.
Does Trustworthy organize documents automatically?
Historically it was manual — you upload into guided checklists. In July 2026 Trustworthy shipped 'Trustworthy Next', adding Gmail Sync and an Inbox where its AI reads a document and proposes where to file it for you to confirm. That is a human-in-the-loop review step rather than hands-off auto-filing. Details reflect Trustworthy's public pages as of July 2026.
How much does each cost?
Trustworthy (billed annually, as of July 2026): Free, Silver $10/mo, Gold $20/mo, Platinum $40/mo, with 'AI Answers' metered to 10/mo on Free and 25/mo on Silver. Sparky Fetch is in private beta; founder pricing for early families is Friend $5.99/mo and Family $7.99/mo (CAD).
Can Sparky read a photo of a document?
Yes. Upload a photo or PDF — or forward one to the Telegram bot — and Sparky runs OCR to pull out the text, then classifies and files it so you can find it later by searching or asking in plain language.
Is my data private?
Documents live in your household and are shared only with the members you invite. Stored documents and their extracted text are encrypted at rest, and you can export or delete your data at any time. See our privacy policy for the specifics.
Good docs. Good humans. ♡
