No reliable way to know when a subject has died
Professionals managing portfolios of individuals face a fundamental data gap: there is no single national death database that is both real-time and comprehensive. This creates missed deadlines, wasted effort on deceased accounts, and compliance exposure.
- No national death database — The Social Security Death Master File has processing delays of weeks to months. Funeral home data is fragmented across thousands of independent sources.
- SSDMF update delays — By the time the SSDMF is updated, probate windows may have already opened — and creditor claim deadlines may be running.
- Manual obituary searching doesn't scale — Checking individual funeral home websites for each subject in a portfolio is impractical and easy to miss.
- Missed claim deadlines — Most states allow creditors 90–180 days from estate publication to file claims. Late detection means missed recoveries.
Without automated monitoring
Claim window may be closed. Recovery opportunity lost.
How professional monitoring works
ObituaryMonitor continuously watches thousands of sources for every individual in your portfolio — so you find out the moment an obituary appears, not weeks later.
Upload your portfolio
Add individual names or bulk-upload a CSV of monitored subjects. Professional plans support hundreds of simultaneous monitors.
We scan 2,500+ sources
ObituaryMonitor continuously checks funeral homes, newspapers, obituary aggregators, and public notice sites nationwide.
Confidence-scored alert
When a match appears, you receive an alert with a confidence score, source, location, publication date, and direct link to the notice.
Generate verification report
Export a timestamped, court-ready verification report documenting the source, detection date, confidence score, and match details.
Professional recovery workflow
ObituaryMonitor enters the workflow at the earliest possible moment — hours after publication, not weeks later.
Detecting deaths earlier gives creditors and investigators more time to verify records, identify probate filings, and preserve recovery opportunities.
Know within hours — not weeks
Portfolio alerts include confidence scoring, source documentation, and publication timestamps — giving your team the information needed to act quickly and document their due diligence.
- Matches across 2,500+ sources including funeral homes and newspapers
- Alerts delivered within hours of obituary publication
- Confidence scoring reduces false positives and wasted follow-up
- Source URL and publication timestamp documented in every alert
- Multiple matches across a portfolio delivered in a single digest
