Problem
Families dealing with a recent death must manage scattered information—funeral planning, legal paperwork, vendor coordination, and shared memories—across multiple apps, messages, and documents, creating stress and disorganization during an already difficult time.
Solution
Mourning offers a private, invite‑only digital hub that consolidates funeral planning, administrative tasks, and memory preservation in one secure workspace. Users receive a pre‑built checklist for the first weeks, role‑based task assignments, and a quiet family thread for communication. AI assistance generates drafts for obituaries, eulogies, thank‑you notes, and helps weave memories into a life story. A document vault stores death certificates, account closure forms, and vendor invoices, while the platform tracks payments and estate handoff. The service is free for the initial weeks and, for a one‑time fee, provides permanent, exportable archives with long‑term hosting.
Target Audience
Primary users are adult family members or close friends responsible for coordinating funeral arrangements, paperwork, and family communication after a death, as well as extended relatives and helpers invited to collaborate.
