# Afterly

> Afterly (Afterly.ai) is the **first AI-powered funeral planning platform**. We combine an AI obituary creator, funeral pre-planning, a nationwide funeral home directory, and grief support in one product — so families can plan ahead, find services nearby, and honor a loved one without juggling separate tools.

Afterly is free to start. Premium features unlock collaborative family planning, advance directives storage, and concierge support.

## What Afterly does

- **AI Obituary Creator** — Generate a warm, personalized obituary from a few details (name, dates, family, life story, tone). Edit, share with family, and publish or export.
- **Funeral Pre-Planning** — Guided checklist to document end-of-life wishes: service type, disposition (burial vs cremation), readings, music, budget, and beneficiaries. Saves family from hard decisions later and locks in today's prices.
- **Live Stream a Funeral — $100 flat** — Broadcast a funeral, memorial, or celebration of life online for one flat price. Includes setup, the live stream, private invite-only access, and a 90-day replay. Family anywhere in the world can attend in real time.

- **Funeral Home Directory** — Search funeral homes near you by city, zip, or current location. Filter by service (cremation, burial, memorial, celebration of life, pre-planning). Read reviews, compare prices, contact providers directly.
