🎙️📸 Voice & Photo Memories · AI Read-Along Voice Transcripts · 300-DPI Print Vault

More than a digital obituary: a living Memorial Garden for their stories, photos, and voice.

An obituary announces a passing. A Memorial Garden keeps their memory blooming.

You can begin gently now. Nothing is published until you choose.

⚡ Dual WebP + 300-DPI Print Vault

Every photo is split into a ~110KB WebP that opens fast on a phone in the viewing room and a 2400px 300-DPI master, ready to print.

📖 Scannable Voice-QR Book

Compile all photos, transcripts, and mini-QR codes into a 60-page casebound book. Scan any page with a phone camera to hear that voice.

Free Funeral Home Website + First 3 Families Free

Independent funeral homes carrying 15 to 60 calls a month should not be paying a fixed software bill every month. We build and host a free funeral home site with a live obituary wall, local search setup and directions to your viewing room. There is no monthly fee. You offer a garden inside a family's service package only when it helps that family, and the first three families cost you nothing. Wholesale per case rates are on the funeral home page.

Why Default Package Inclusion Wins (85%+ Take Rate)

Arrangement counselors are wary of pitching optional add-ons during bereavement, and optional add-ons stall. When the Memorial Garden and the printed viewing room QR poster are part of your standard signature benefit in traditional and cremation packages, the family is not being sold anything:

  • ✓ Created in 60 seconds through a WhatsApp message to NORA
  • ✓ Viewing room QR poster, printed on your own printer
  • ✓ Every visitor sees your funeral home's name, not ours
  • ✓ Free funeral home site with a live obituary wall, updated in 60 seconds
For funeral homes · installed with you

Online presence program

Three levels for the funeral home itself, added on top of the free funeral home site. A level begins with a conversation, not a checkout.

Level 1

Presence and reviews

$299

Your funeral home found, and trusted, before a family picks up the phone.

  • ✓ Funeral home site with your services, your photographs and your obituary wall
  • ✓ Local search and directions to your viewing room, checked by hand
  • ✓ A review request sent to the family after the service, in your words
Level 2

Family acquisition

$790

Families who are planning ahead, arriving with a question instead of a price list.

  • ✓ Everything in Presence and reviews
  • ✓ Pre-Arreglos inquiry section on your site, routed to your team
  • ✓ A WhatsApp first response, so no inquiry waits until Monday
Level 3

Local dominance

$1,990

The funeral home families in your town see first, and remember.

  • ✓ Everything in Family acquisition
  • ✓ Voice-to-esquela drafting: your team speaks the details and the draft is prepared for review
  • ✓ Viewing room TV slideshow mode for the service

Each level is installed with your funeral home and quoted separately from the gardens. Automations are switched on one at a time, and you are not charged for one until it is running on your site.

Wholesale per-case rates are on the funeral home page.
