Where to begin
What to say about your mum
You could talk about your mum for an hour and still feel you’d left her out. A eulogy is three to five minutes, so it doesn’t try to cover her whole life. It chooses a few true things and lets them stand for the rest. These are the ones we’ll ask you about.
Her sayings
What she said when you were ill, or late, or leaving. If the whole family can finish the sentence, it belongs in the eulogy.
What she did without being asked
The lifts, the food parcels, the phone call on the same day every week. A small habit says “kind” better than the word does.
One story, told properly
The one that gets told at Christmas. We’ll ask what she said next, because that is often the best line.
Anything to handle gently
A long illness or a hard last year can be a sentence or two, or left out altogether. Tell us how, and we’ll follow your lead exactly.
If your brothers and sisters want a say, you can ask each of them for a memory by private link. You read everything first, and you decide what goes in.
Why it sounds like them
We ask the way a good listener would
A eulogy is only as good as the memories in it. So this isn’t a form. Say they were stubborn and we’ll ask for a time they were. Tell us a story and we’ll ask what they said next. Those small true details are what the room will recognise.
Tap the microphone and say it the way you’d tell a friend. You may find you remember more out loud. If you’d rather type, type.
- You can see everything we’ve kept, at any time
- A few follow-up questions at most, and you can skip any of them
- Stop whenever you need to. It will be here when you come back
Making it right
Two rounds of changes, and questions first
Put everything you’d like different in one go, the way you’d say it to a friend: “add the caravan”, “too long”, “a gentler ending”. Before we rewrite, we ask about anything unclear, so the new version is right first time.
- A round is used when we rewrite it for you. Answering our questions, or adding family memories, never uses one
- What changed is underlined. Everything else stays exactly as it was, in case you’ve practised it
- Both versions are kept, so you can switch back at any time
Then, in the new version
For the day itself
A copy made for reading aloud
Writing it is half the worry. Standing up and reading it is the other half. So every eulogy comes with a reading copy:
- One breath to a line, so you never run out of air mid-sentence
- Pauses marked: / for a beat, // to let a moment land
- Names in bold, so you can look up and find your place again
- Large, clear print that works through tears and without your glasses
Look up at the end of a line, not the middle. Nobody minds a pause.
The last page of our fictional sample. It prints on A4 at 18 point. Fold it in three and it fits an inside pocket.
How it works
Talk to us about them
Tap the microphone and talk, or type. We listen, and now and then ask a little more, the way a celebrant would at your kitchen table. About ten minutes. Skip whatever you like.
Read how it begins
Tell us where to send it, and read the opening straight away. If it doesn’t sound like them, add a detail and we’ll write it again, free.
Make it yours
The full eulogy is £39, paid once. Two rounds of changes are included: tell us everything you’d like different, we ask about anything unclear, then rewrite. Then print your reading copy.
An example
If you asked anyone here for a word about Mum, I know the first one you’d get. Stubborn. She did the crossword in pen. And when she was wrong, she was wrong in pen.
The second word would be generous. Nobody left that house without a carrier bag of runner beans. You could have called round to read the meter and you’d have gone home with beans.
From a sample eulogy for “Dot”, written from a fictional set of answers so you can see what to expect. Your mum’s will be made of her own sayings and stories. Read all of it.
Paid once. No subscription.
The conversation and the opening are free. You only pay if you want the rest.

Drafted by AI, working only from what you tell us.
Plainly
How it’s written
Your eulogy is drafted by AI, working only from what you tell us. It’s told never to invent a name, a story or a fact, and a second check reads every draft against your answers. Where something’s missing, it asks you. You check every line before you use it.
We say so plainly because you ought to know, and because it’s why this costs £39, where a professional writer often charges two hundred pounds or more. The memories are yours. The shaping is ours. The final word is always yours.
- What it does
- Asks about them, the way a celebrant would. Drafts the eulogy from your answers. Checks the draft against them, line by line.
- What it never does
- Invent a name, a story or a fact. Pretend to be a person. Learn from what you tell it: your words are not used to train AI.
- Where your words are kept
- Encrypted, in the UK. The AI model that drafts from them runs in the EU, under a contract that forbids using your words for training.
- How long for
- Deleted 30 days after your last visit, or 30 days after the funeral date you gave us if that is later. You can delete everything sooner from your private link, or by emailing us. The details are in our privacy notice.
Questions people ask
What if I cry?
Then you cry, and nobody minds. Every person in the room is on your side. The reading copy is printed large, one breath to a line, so you can stop, breathe and find your place again. Give a spare copy to someone who could finish it for you. You almost certainly won’t need them to.
What if I don’t know what to say?
Half-sentences are fine. “He always had a mint in his pocket” is worth more than a paragraph of fine words. We’ll ask a little more where it helps, and you can skip any question after their name and yours.
What if my brother or sister remembers it differently?
Ask them. Send a private link and they can write or say their own memory, with nothing to sign up for. You read it first and choose whether it goes in. And if two things don’t agree, a date or a number of years, we ask you which is right before anything is written.
Will it sound like me, or like a greetings card?
Like you. It’s written for speaking, in plain British English, using your own phrases wherever it can. We keep a list of funeral clichés it isn’t allowed to use.
What if it isn’t right?
Two rounds of changes are included. Put everything you’d like different in one go; we’ll ask about anything unclear, then rewrite, and show you exactly what changed. If it still isn’t right, email us within 14 days of paying and we’ll refund you in full. You don’t need to give a reason.
