Trezor Suite Desktop: Vault12 Edition
Beyond Security. Welcome to Sovereignty. Introducing the Vault12 Edition, the professional-grade desktop client for managing high-value crypto assets, digital inheritance, and enterprise-level security protocols.
What is the Trezor Suite Vault12 Edition?
The standard Trezor Suite provides uncompromising security for everyday crypto management. The **Trezor Suite Desktop - Vault12 Edition** is its professional counterpart, built for users who require a new level of control, resilience, and long-term planning. It is not just a wallet interface; it's a comprehensive asset management dashboard designed for family offices, businesses, and individuals securing generational wealth.
Vault12 extends the battle-tested security of your Trezor hardware wallet with a specialized suite of desktop tools. It introduces powerful new paradigms like the **Digital Inheritance Protocol**, a dedicated **Multi-Signature Coordination** interface, and native **Advanced Shamir Backup** for distributing risk. This is the definitive solution for those who manage multiple portfolios, require auditable transaction records, and need to plan for the long-term stewardship of their digital assets.
The Vault12 Security Standard
Enterprise-Grade Protection
Multi-layer protocols for asset and legacy protection.
The Vault12 Edition builds upon the core promise of Trezor: your keys never leave your device. All transactions are, and always will be, confirmed on the trusted display of your hardware wallet. We elevate this foundation with protocols for advanced asset protection.
Vault12 Exclusive Security Layers:
- Isolated Desktop Environment: The Vault12 client is a dedicated desktop application, minimizing exposure to browser-based threats and phishing vectors common in web apps.
- Native Multi-Sig UI: We've built a dedicated interface for creating, managing, and executing multi-signature transactions. This removes the complexity and potential for error, making M-of-N (e.g., 2-of-3, 3-of-5) security accessible to all.
- Advanced Shamir Backup (SLIP-39): Go beyond the standard 12 or 24-word seed. Vault12 provides a guided, native workflow for creating a Shamir Backup, splitting your master key into multiple shares. A threshold of shares (e.g., 3-of-5) is required for recovery, eliminating a single point of failure.
- Auditable Reporting: For professionals and businesses, Vault12 provides exportable, cryptographically signed transaction reports for accounting, compliance, and tax purposes.
Vault12: Professional Features
Digital Inheritance Protocol
Prepare for the future with our guided Digital Inheritance module. This feature allows you to create a secure, time-locked "dead man's switch" or a designated-heir protocol. Securely structure the transfer of assets to your beneficiaries with instructions that can only be unlocked under specific, verified conditions, all while maintaining 100% self-custody.
Multi-Signature Coordinator
The ultimate tool for teams, partners, or families. The Vault12 dashboard acts as a coordinator for your multi-sig vault. It allows you to create a transaction, securely gather signatures from other (geographically distributed) Trezor devices, and broadcast the transaction only when the required threshold of signatures is met.
Advanced Portfolio Analytics
Go beyond simple tracking. Vault12 provides professional-grade portfolio analytics, including realized/unrealized gains, cost-basis reporting, and performance attribution. Manage multiple independent portfolios (e.g., "Personal," "Business," "Trust") under one secure umbrella, each with its own privacy-preserving settings.
Native Shamir Backup Interface
A single 24-word seed is a single point of failure. The Vault12 desktop app provides a simple, guided, and secure workflow for setting up an Advanced Shamir Backup (SLIP-39). Create 5 shares, store them in 5 different locations, and only require 3 to recover your wallet. This is the gold standard for resilience against theft, fire, or loss.
Compliance & Reporting Tools
For businesses and professionals who need to report to clients or regulatory bodies. The Vault12 Edition allows you to label, categorize, and export detailed transaction histories. Generate auditable reports for tax season or investor statements, all without ever compromising your private keys to a third-party service.
Premium 'Vault' Support
Vault12 users get access to a dedicated, priority support channel. Our specialists are trained to handle complex scenarios, from multi-sig setup to inheritance protocol execution, ensuring you have the expert guidance you need when managing significant assets.

Vault12 Questions
Is Vault12 a separate hardware wallet?
No. The Trezor Suite Desktop - Vault12 Edition is a premium **software application** that runs on your computer. It is designed to work with your existing Trezor Model T or Trezor Model One hardware wallet. It unlocks advanced features in the desktop interface but still relies on your hardware device to secure your keys.
How is this different from the free Trezor Suite?
The standard, free Trezor Suite is a fantastic and secure tool for all essential crypto operations: send, receive, buy, sell, and portfolio tracking. The Vault12 Edition is a specialized, paid upgrade for users who need more. Its features—like the Digital Inheritance Protocol, multi-sig coordinator, and Shamir backup interface—are advanced tools for long-term planning, risk distribution, and business-level management that are not present in the standard suite.
Does the Digital Inheritance Protocol require a third party?
Absolutely not. The protocol is built on the principles of self-sovereignty. It is a non-custodial feature that uses smart contracts or time-locked transactions (depending on the asset) which you control. You are not trusting a third-party company with your assets or your beneficiary's information. The Vault12 software simply provides the secure, user-friendly interface to create, sign, and manage these on-chain instructions from your Trezor.
