What Vocito does for you

Funeral = intake + planning + day-of + aftercare.

Family often calls at night/weekend. Funeral director must always be reachable. Planning is complex (family, clergy, venue, catering). Aftercare often forgotten. Vocito automates with respect.

How it works

Three features for funeral directors.

24/7 sympathetic intake

AI trained in empathetic tone-of-voice for moment of loss. On call: listens, condoles, collects essential info (deceased name, desired contact person, urgency, location). Plans intake appointment with funeral director for morning. Family feels heard, funeral director sleeps through.

Funeral planning coordination

Central dashboard: family wishes, clergy availability, venue booking, catering, flowers, print work, transport. AI tracks all deadlines + confirmations. For family: portal with all info + 24/7 question AI. For team: daily status update.

Aftercare + grief support

Day 7 after funeral: auto email with practical tips (papers to settle: pension, insurance, accounts) + grief support resources. Month 3: check-in 'how are you?'. Year 1: 'thinking of you + anniversary condolence'. For family: tangible that they're not forgotten.

Real numbers

"My phone rang at night 3-5x per week. With Vocito's intake: 90% of night calls handled without me. Plus 100% of families get aftercare (was 30%). Google reviews improved from 4.2 to 4.8."

Frequently asked

What funeral directors ask before they start

Does AI really feel empathic in this moment?

AI specifically trained for funeral context. Slow pace, short sentences, no sales pitch. For difficult moments: direct escalation to human. We test monthly with actual families for feedback.

Does this work with our software (Uitvaart.com, Yarden, own system)?

Yes. Integrations with Uitvaart.com, Yarden, DELA software. For own systems: CSV import + REST API. File data, calendar, vendors: bi-directional sync.

What about religious + cultural differences (Islamic, Hindu, Jewish)?

AI aware of religious + cultural context. For Islamic funeral: knowledge of 24-hour tradition. For Jewish: shiva period. For Hindu: cremation rituals. Asks at intake about desired tradition + adapts flow.

How personal does aftercare email feel?

Not generic, not sales-y. Example: 'Dear X family, it's a week since we said farewell to [name]. We think of you. For practical help with papers or if you want to talk: call us directly.' Short, personal messages.

Doesn't this cost more than night-shift staff?

Night-shift staff fulltime: €4-5k/mo. Vocito from €299/mo does 24/7 intake. For funeral home with 100+ funerals/year: direct ROI + better reviews + rested staff.

24/7 reachable without night shifts.
