The free preview shows your scores across 4 dimensions — documentation, privacy, timing, and eligibility. To unlock specific recommendations and action items, upgrade to Complete or above.
Complete includes a fee waiver eligibility indicator and checklist so you can quickly see whether it is worth pursuing and prepare your application. Court fee waivers can eliminate $150–$500 in costs.
After the court approves your name change, you need to update dozens of institutions — SSA, DMV, banks, insurance, subscriptions, and more. Complete includes guided support for the most common institution updates, with deeper coverage expanding over time.
Policy monitoring is available on eligible higher-tier or advocate access where supported. Advocate includes up to 12 months of alerts plus free process regeneration if a monitored rule change materially affects your filing path.
Yes. Your data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest on hosting infrastructure, and never sold. When you use OCR or AI chat, content is sent to a listed AI provider only to process that request; you can decline OCR and type manually. For users whose safety depends on privacy — including those in states with hostile legislation — we take this especially seriously. Complete includes privacy path analysis for publication and public-record concerns.
For most standard name and gender marker changes in the US, no. NameRight is a document preparation and informational guidance platform — we help you understand the steps and prepare the right documents. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice. If your situation involves complex circumstances, we recommend consulting a licensed attorney or a free LGBTQ+ legal aid resource.
