A Legacy That
Never Disappears
Place a permanent QR code on the headstone. Generations scan it to read stories, view photos, and add their own memories. Unlike memorial websites, this code lives as long as the stone itself.
Create a Memorial QRWhy Memorial Websites Fail
Digital memorials should be permanent. But platforms fail, subscriptions expire, and family members forget to renew.
Digital Memorials Disappear
Facebook pages get hacked. Tribute websites shut down. Cloud accounts forgotten. Ten years later, your loved one's memory vanishes from the internet.
Subscription Services End
Memorial platforms require annual payments. Miss a renewal. The entire memorial gets deleted. Family discovers the loss years later.
Gravestone Access is Limited
Family lives across the country. Grandchildren never visit. The headstone's information—dates, stories, photos—feels cold and static.
Stories Are Lost to Time
Aunts and cousins have memories. Where do they share them? Who compiles the full picture of this life? Family stories fade.

Physical Permanence
The code is printed on stone. As long as the headstone exists, the QR code exists. Outlasts companies, websites, and platforms.
