Platform Overview
MemorialNow
This is us
Free / $49 / $149
One-time, lifetime access
Simple, permanent memorials with no subscriptions. Our free plan includes a memorial page, photos, obituary, and visitor memories. Paid plans add unlimited photos, custom domains, print materials, memory moderation, and anniversary reminders. The Family plan supports up to 5 memorials with multiple administrators.
Ever Loved
everloved.com
Free / $199.99
One-time for premium
Comprehensive funeral planning platform with a generous free tier. Includes memorial pages, donation collection, and funeral marketplace. Premium adds privacy controls and content moderation. Primarily focused on the funeral planning process rather than long-term memorials.
ForeverMissed
forevermissed.com
Free / $6.99/mo / $124.99
Monthly or lifetime
One of the longest-running memorial platforms with 100+ themes. Offers monthly and lifetime payment options. Premium adds unlimited media, background music, and social integrations. Interface feels dated compared to newer alternatives, and customization options are limited beyond theme selection.
Keeper
mykeeper.com
Free / $99 / $350
One-time payment
Modern memorial platform with AI obituary writing and family tree features. The free tier is limited to 5 photos and 1 page. Concierge plan ($350) includes professional setup with dedicated guidance. Also owns GatheringUs for virtual funeral events.
Legacy.com
legacy.com
~$99+
Varies by newspaper
The largest obituary platform, partnered with 2,700+ newspapers. Primarily focused on newspaper obituary placement with online presence as a secondary feature. Limited customization, no free standalone option, and guestbooks are known for attracting scam messages targeting grieving families. Pricing varies significantly based on newspaper selection.
GatheringUs
gatheringus.com
$750 – $2,300
Per event
Premium virtual funeral event service with facilitated livestreaming and professional production. Best for families who need a polished virtual ceremony. Not a memorial website builder — it's a one-time event service with pricing starting at $750 for a basic livestream.
Kudoboard
kudoboard.com
Free / $5.99 – $99
Per board
Group tribute board platform, originally designed for workplace appreciation. Memorial boards are a secondary product — a single collaborative board rather than a full memorial website. Good for group tributes but lacks obituary publishing, photo galleries, and biographical features.
