Service so good, you'll talk about us at dinner
Afterword is trusted by the country's leading funeral homes and crematoriums
Like most funeral homes, we are approached by a number of vendors in a variety of categories on a nearly daily basis. Afterword stood out to us from the start. As our working relationship progressed, it became further apparent that they combine the best of new technology and the top notch customer service that our parents and grandparents used to talk about.

A skilled carpenter is more proficient if he has the proper tools at his disposal, same can be said for a gifted funeral director. Afterword is the best funeral software tool in the industry, as it elevates the experience for the funeral director and more importantly the client family. Using Afterword allows the funeral professionals to hone their craft and increase the bottom line.

Enterprise-grade security to protect your data
Afterword is the first funeral home software with SOC 2 Type II Attestation
SOC 2 Type II
AICPA SOC
The gold standard in security
We obtained SOC 2 Type II attestation in August 2025
SOC 2 Type II is the most rigorous security attestation in the
software industry. This means an independent third-party auditor
endorsed Afterword for its security systems and processes. Unlike a Type
I report, which assesses security processes at a single point in time, the Type II audit validates their operational effectiveness over an extended period.
Attestation isn't just about checking a box. It's the ultimate validation
of our commitment to protecting the data of our clients and the families
they serve.
