Prelude’s website makes this statement “We created the world’s best in-person selling software that anyone in your funeral home can use to close in just one meeting”.

One year ago on March 8, 2024, Funeral Director Daily published our first article on the company.  That article, that you can read here, was titled, “Will Prelude be the product?”

I didn’t know much about the company or the product at that time, but in the time since I see that they are still moving forward.  The company landed an investment from Cortado Ventures of Oklahoma City and now, according to this press release, has landed another investor in Hurricane Ventures out of Tulsa, Oklahoma. . . . It should be noted that Prelude is an Oklahoma-based company.

In the last year I’ve also got to take a “test-ride” of their product acting as a consumer with their digital platform.  Quite frankly, I found the experience, which must use artificial intelligence (AI), to be pretty simple and easily understandable in guiding me through an arrangement conference to pricing and preneed financing.

I was at the point that I said to myself, “This is something the common consumer could use”.

Like a lot of products in the developing stages I’m sure that there will be enhancements moving forward, but the experience that I had with my Prelude test-drive has convinced me that computer arrangements and pre-arrangements will be the choice for a certain percentage of consumers in Death Care’s future.
