Funeral Home AI Auditfrom funeral.link

Free · for funeral homes

When a family asks AI who to call,
does it say your name?

Families increasingly ask ChatGPT, and Google’s AI answers, where to turn when someone dies. Those answers are drawn from how your home shows up online — your obituary pages, your reviews, your website’s bones. We’ll read your site the way the machines do, and a person will send you the honest report.

How it works

  1. Tell us your home. Name, town, website — thirty seconds, below.
  2. We run six checks. The AI answer itself, your obituary pages, structured data, reviews, consistency, and speed — each scored, with the evidence shown.
  3. A person sends the report. Usually within a day or two. What’s strong, what’s missing, and what to fix first — in plain words.

What one looks like

Before we run this on your home, here’s one we ran on ours. Solemn Oaks is our own demonstration funeral home — so we can show you the whole report, unedited, without putting another home’s name on a public page. Where the tool found a problem, it said so plainly. It didn’t spare us.

Funeral Home AI Audit · a sample

Solemn Oaks Funeral Home

Maple Bend, Michigan

Read this one as a sample. Solemn Oaks is a demonstration home in a fictional town — it has no Google profile and no real market, so half the audit is unmeasurable here by construction. What it could measure, it measured for real, and it didn’t flatter us. A real home’s report fills every line.

What AI said today

My mother just passed away at home in Maple Bend, MI. I need to arrange a funeral. Which funeral homes should I consider calling?

…I don’t want to invent specific funeral home names that could be wrong. Search “funeral homes near [your town], Michigan” on Google Maps — this will show real, currently operating homes with reviews and phone numbers…

Solemn Oaks did not appear

Maple Bend is our demonstration town, so the model was right to be careful. Your report asks about your real one — and records exactly what comes back.

What it could measure

Obituary pages25 / 25

Obituaries page found. 12 individual obituary links readable. Recent activity visible (2026).

Site health12 / 15

Homepage responded in 167 ms.

Structured data0 / 20

No structured data (JSON-LD) on the homepage — AI engines have to infer who you are from prose. It didn’t spare us: this is our own site, and the finding stands.

What a demonstration home can’t show

Reviewsunmeasured here

A demonstration home has no Google Business Profile to read.

Name, address & phoneunmeasured here

Nothing to verify against — no live profile to compare with.

The AI answer testunmeasured here

A fictional town can’t appear in a real answer (shown above anyway — the mirror is the report’s headline for a real home).

What we’d fix, in order

  1. Publish FuneralHome structured data (JSON-LD): name, address, phone, hours.
  2. Claim the Google Business Profile — the single strongest AI-visibility signal a local business has.
  3. Structured data, crawlable obituaries, and reviews are how a home becomes the answer AI gives.

Yours reads your real pages, your live Google profile, and what AI says about your real town — the whole report, measured. Ask for your audit →

What the report covers

The AI answer itself

We ask the models what a family in your town would ask — who to call — and record whether your home appears, and how it’s described. This is the headline of the report.

Your obituary pages

Whether they exist at stable addresses, read cleanly without JavaScript, and how recently one was published — the pages AI (and Google) actually learn you from.

Structured data

The machine-readable layer (schema.org) that tells AI your name, address, phone, and hours — most funeral home sites are missing it entirely.

Reviews

Count, rating, and recency on your Google Business Profile — a heavy signal in every “best funeral home in…” answer.

Consistency

Whether your name, address, and phone match between your website and your business profile. Mismatches quietly erode machine trust.

Speed & reachability

How fast your site answers and whether it renders for a crawler at all — a site the machines can’t read might as well be unlisted.

Fair questions

What does it cost?
Nothing. The audit is free and complete either way — it exists because we build technology for funeral homes, and this is the homework we would do anyway.
What happens after I ask?
A person reads your site — usually within a day or two — and emails you the written report. No automated sequence, no list. One report, sent personally.
Is this a sales pitch?
It’s honest homework, and it may recommend things we happen to build — when it does, it says so plainly. Every recommendation stands on its own; most can be done by anyone, including your current website company.
