The expensive reality
Today's families search online first. Social media, ads, and a website take time you do not have.
Death certificates, permits, invoices, compliance forms, the same details copied into five different systems. You became a funeral director to help families, not to push paper.
Families call, email, and text at all hours. Suppliers need confirmations. Municipalities want forms. Without one place to manage it all, things slip through the cracks, and every missed call is a family that turns to someone else.
Platform overview
Bring in families, answer every call and run every case from one platform. Each part is shown in detail below.
01
Families find you before they need you.
02
Every call, plan and case moves forward.
03
Care that continues after the farewell.
Free improved website
Send us your current funeral home website and we'll build you a better one for free and help you put it live — get a live preview with no strings attached.
Platform at work
One assistant for your whole funeral home. Type or say what you need, and Lethra opens the case, drafts the email, fills in the form or launches the campaign. Nothing goes out without your approval.

ADS ON AUTOPILOT
Families scroll social media, search Google when they need help now, and increasingly ask ChatGPT where to turn. Lethra writes and runs your ads on every one of them, and each enquiry lands in your dashboard.
Before they need you
Calm, local campaigns that keep your funeral home in mind with families nearby, from pre-planning guides to remembrance events.
The moment they search
Appear at the top when someone looks for a funeral home near them, with ads written for the services you offer.
When they ask for advice
More families now ask ChatGPT what to do when someone dies. Your funeral home can appear as a sponsored suggestion right under the answer.
AI writes the copy and creates the visuals for each channel. Nothing goes live until you approve it.
Leads land in your dashboard with the campaign they came from, so you see what each channel brings in.
Set the budget per campaign, and pause or change it anytime.

Things to try
Example call
Thank you for calling Evergreen Funeral Home. How can I help you?
Hi, my mother just passed away at home. I don't know what to do.
I'm so sorry for your loss. You're not alone, we'll help. Can I have your name and where your mother is now?
I'm Anna. She's at home in Palo Alto.
Thank you, Anna. I'm connecting you to our director on call now, and I've shared what you told me.
Answer or escalate, you stay in control
Pre-need
Families judge your home by every interaction, online included. Lethra gives them a beautiful, unhurried way to plan ahead, and gives you the leads and lasting relationships that follow.
Put your planner in front of local families with tasteful ads, your website and your content. The first impression feels like your home, not an ad.
Example: pre-need sold a year
$384,000
in future funerals secured for your home
An illustration with your own numbers, not a promise.
Case files
From the first call to the last invoice, one file per family. Your assistant drafts the documents, keeps tasks current and writes to the family, so your team spends its time on people, not paperwork.
Family portal
Each family gets a private portal to work through the farewell at their own pace, with your team reviewing every answer.
Condolences
A QR code on the memorial card opens the obituary page. Guests add photos, videos and words in seconds, and the family receives a keepsake far richer than any guestbook.

In loving memory

No plans, seats or contracts. Lethra costs nothing to use. You pay only for the AI work it does for you, at cost.

The intelligence
Calls answered, conversations, cases, posts and meeting notes, billed at what the AI and phone companies charge. A small family home typically lands here.
That bill is paid straight to these companies, at cost:
Paid at cost to the companies that run the AI and phone lines, with no Lethra margin. Ad budget not included.
Why is Lethra free?
We don't earn on your software bill. We are building a pre-need insurance offering with funeral homes; its commissions, shared with your home, are designed to fund Lethra. The software is how we earn your trust.
We work with selected funeral homes.
Because the software is free, we don't open Lethra to everyone at once. We review each home and admit a limited number per region, so every home with us gets real attention during setup and after. That is why you apply, rather than sign up.
Your ad budget, kept separate
You choose the budget and it goes straight to Meta and Google, with no markup. It is never part of what you pay Lethra.
One extra family a year covers it
About $491 a year for a small home, ad budget not included. A single funeral or pre-need contract is worth more.
Several locations or a group? Same model per brand: free software, each brand pays its own intelligence and sets its own ad budget.
For multi-brand groups
Every brand keeps its own name, website and phone line, while head office sees leads, cases and ad spend across the whole group in one place.
Every funeral home keeps its own name, website, First Call assistant and team. Families never see the group behind it.
Leads, active cases, live websites and ad budget for every brand, with a list of what needs your attention.
Set a monthly cap per brand or split one total budget across the group. Campaigns stay within it.
Open a new brand from the group with the settings of an existing one, and receive one invoice for the whole group.

Works alongside
Ads, your website, First Call and lead capture run next to your current case software. Nothing needs to move.
Your phone line, website, Google Calendar and Gmail, and eLys in Flanders. Your accounting and printers stay as they are.
If you later want to run cases in Lethra too, we import your records and history for you, at no extra cost.
Frequently asked questions
Lethra's software is free: the website, First Call, the Receptionist, the ad engine, content, contacts, cases and the family portal. You only pay for the intelligence, meaning the AI work it does, at the price the AI and phone companies charge. A small family home typically pays about $41 a month. Your ad budget is separate and goes straight to Meta and Google with no markup. You can set a monthly limit and see every line on your bill.
You apply instead of signing up. Because the software is free, we onboard a limited number of homes per region and look at each application ourselves, so every home with us gets real attention during setup and afterwards. Tell us about your home and we'll come back to you quickly.
Most funeral homes are fully operational within a week. We import your existing records, documents and history for you, configure your templates and workflows, and train the whole team as part of setup. You are not left to configure it yourself.
No. Lethra runs alongside your current case software, accounting, phone system and printers, so you can start with ads, your website and First Call without moving anything. If you later want to run cases in Lethra too, we migrate your data at no extra cost.
Yes. The AI receptionist answers around the clock in your firm's name, collects intake details and routes urgent calls to whoever is on duty. Every call is transcribed and summarized into the right case file automatically, so nothing depends on someone remembering to write it down.
It drafts replies to families, writes notes for the file, and answers questions about a case in plain language, drawing only on what is actually on the record. It works in the background and never sends anything, files anything or takes an action on its own; every draft it produces goes through the same approval you would give any other.
Yes. Lethra is built mobile-first and is also available as a native iOS app, so your team can read and update cases from a visit, a service or the car. The same case file, tasks and notes are available on phone and desktop.
Data is stored in the European Union where that is required, each funeral home only ever sees its own cases, and families follow their case through a separate secure portal. Lethra is GDPR compliant and never uses your data to train models.
English, French and Dutch across the entire platform, including the AI agent, the receptionist and generated documents. In Flanders, Lethra also integrates with eLys for official registrations, so you do not have to re-enter anything by hand.
Yes. Lethra writes posts and makes branded images for your Facebook Page, Instagram account and Google listing, and can share new obituaries and blog articles as you publish them. You choose for each kind of post whether it waits for your approval or goes out on its own, and you can change or remove anything before it is published.
