Problem
Municipal cemetery records are often paper-based or fragmented, making it difficult for citizens to locate burial sites and for public administrations to manage cemetery data efficiently. Additionally, people who live far from their loved ones' resting places lack a simple way to honor them, send flowers, or maintain the grave, and the emotional connection to deceased relatives can fade over time, especially for younger generations.
Solution
Aldilapp provides a digital platform for cemeteries that combines a user-facing mobile app with a backend service for municipal administrations. The app allows users to search for deceased individuals by name, date, or cemetery, view burial location details, and interact with digital profiles by leaving messages, lighting virtual candles, sending flowers, or ordering grave cleaning services. Municipalities that join the platform get their cemetery records digitized and published, with physical signage installed at cemeteries to guide visitors. The platform also enables family members to "redeem" a deceased person's profile to add photos and biographies, preserving their memory for future generations.
Target Audience
Primary customers are Italian municipal administrations and cemetery managers seeking to digitize their cemetery records, as well as citizens, families of the deceased, and local businesses such as florists and cleaning services that can benefit from the platform's service network.
