The pain point is real: writing a eulogy under grief is emotionally draining, and funeral homes want to offer value-added services. The B2B angle is smart because funeral homes have recurring budgets and need differentiation. The challenge is distribution — funeral homes are relationship-driven and slow to adopt new tools. Trust is critical: families are vulnerable, so the output must be genuinely good. For this to work, you need to get a few funeral homes as design partners and prove retention. The direct-to-family channel is a nice bonus but won't scale without ads.

Funeral homes are under pressure to modernize and offer digital services. Families often struggle to articulate memories under grief; structured prompts help. White-label pricing aligns with funeral home budgets (hundreds per month).

Recurring B2B revenue with low churn. Eulogy writing is emotionally taxing.
