Writing an Obituary in Oakland? You Don't Have to Do It Alone.

We help Oakland families write beautiful, personalized obituaries — free, in minutes, with AI that listens before it writes.

Most families sit down to write an obituary and freeze.

The funeral home gave you a form. Google gave you templates. But none of them knew your father's laugh, your mother's stubbornness, your grandfather's garden in East Oakland. Other options charge $350 for a single obituary. Ours is free — and it actually sounds like the person you're honoring.

Ever wonder if an AI could truly capture the spirit of someone who spent their life painting sunsets over the Bay? Our families here in Oakland are asking that question more often lately, and honestly, I’ve seen a few digital tributes that manage to feel personal—though they still can’t replace the warmth of a good story told by a friend. With California’s cremation rate climbing past 65%, more folks are looking for flexible ways to honor a life, and that’s where a well-crafted memorial service—whether AI-assisted or not—can make all the difference.

How It Works

1

Tell us about them

Where they lived in Oakland, what they loved, who they leave behind. A few gentle questions guide you.

2

AI writes a draft

Not generic. Specific. Warm. It captures their voice, not a template.

You refine it

Edit, polish, make it yours. Then download, share with family, or send to the funeral home.
