“The saying ‘we’re all in the same storm, but in different boats’ can definitely be applied to entrepreneurship. I think depending on your background, identities, or industry that you’re in, people’s experiences with pitching to potential investors, pitch competition judges, or even building your project day to day can vary a lot. The resources that the WEL Institute brings to female founders is uplifting and necessary to empower us and foster a community of founders with different backgrounds that we can learn from. It’s definitely a step in the right direction to support founders of all and intersecting identities and industries at UT and beyond.”

Introducing Clocr, an all-in-one “Estate Planning & Disbursement Platform” for online accounts & digital assets.
About Clocr
The idea for Clocr came to me a few years ago shortly after the passing of my grandfather. After he died, there was confusion surrounding his beneficiaries and how his assets were to be distributed. My father was thrust into the role of ‘executor’ and forced to try and determine what my grandfather’s wishes had been and how to disburse his assets. All of these new responsibilities for my father, while important and urgent, seemed trivial in comparison to our loss.
That’s when it hit me – “what would I do if I was the one who had to figure all of this out?” The answer was: “I just don’t know”. At that moment, Clocr was born. The primary aim of Clocr is to ease a family’s burden at their greatest time of need, when they are facing the greatest uncertainty of life – it’s ending. I firmly believe that technology empowers society to creatively and effectively solve age old problems, and this is why Clocr exists, to eliminate the stress and confusion after the loss of a loved one.
