Getting Started

Enter the name and location of someone you want to monitor, add any known relatives to improve matching accuracy, and configure your notification preferences. Our system will immediately begin scanning over 2,500 obituary sources for potential matches.
When a high-confidence match is found, you will receive an email and optional SMS notification with the obituary details. Review the match in your dashboard, confirm or dismiss it, and generate PDF reports for your records. Professional users can export court-ready audit logs and assign matches to team members for follow-up.
