Funeral director software

Honour every family. Simplify everything else.

Kindred is modern funeral director software built by funeral professionals — cases, contracts, accounting and built-in AI in one calm, secure place you can reach from anywhere, with your data hosted here in the UK.

Family-owned. We serve funeral directors the way they serve families.

The platform

Clarity at a glance

See the numbers that matter — case volume, revenue, and outstanding work — without exporting a single spreadsheet.

Kindred's dashboards and real-time reporting turn day-to-day operations into clear, actionable insight, so you can make confident decisions and spot what needs attention before it becomes urgent.

Why choose Kindred

Everything your firm needs, nothing it doesn't

AI that lightens the load

Built-in AI tools streamline everyday tasks so funeral directors spend less time on paperwork and more time with families — quietly working in the background, never in the way.

Truly web-based

Access your cases from anywhere — the office, the arrangement room, or the road. Any device, no software to install, no servers to maintain.

Secure by design

Sensitive records are protected with enterprise-grade encryption and automated, secure backups.

Shaped to your workflow

Our team tailors Kindred to the way your firm already works — intuitive from day one.

People who answer

Dedicated support from people who know funeral service — whether you're one rooftop or twenty.

Accounting that fits your workflow

Kindred includes built-in accounting — chart of accounts, journal entries, and financial reports — so you are not limited to one outside system. When you prefer QuickBooks®, connect to QuickBooks® Online or export to QuickBooks® Desktop.

Who Kindred serves

Funeral Directors

One platform. Two kinds of work, each with its own intake, contacts, billing, and forms.

Funeral directors

The work Kindred was built for — first call through disposition, with contracts, accounting, and a family portal in one place.

  • Case management from first call through closing
  • Contracts, authorisations, and e-signatures
  • Built-in accounting and family communication

Pet crematoriums and pet funeral directors

Dedicated modules for companion-animal service — the same platform, shaped to owner, veterinarian, and clinic workflows.

  • Owner and veterinarian first-call intake
  • Clinic billing accounts for veterinary offices
  • Pet-specific forms, certificates, and websites

Independent & family-owned

We serve funeral directors the way they serve families.

Kindred is family-owned and operated by the Larkin family. That same family has cared for grieving families at Larkin Mortuary for 141 years, so we know what dedicated service looks like, because we still practise it. That is the standard we hold for every funeral director on Kindred.

We named it Kindred because the word means family — connections that run deep.

Just as you carry families through their most difficult days, our software is built to carry you — quietly, reliably, and with the same care you give to others.

What our customers say

Kindred is much more than a case management system. It gives us the ability to easily track the data that matters and drives real, actionable change and ongoing improvement in how we operate. Their automations help our staff work more efficiently and deliver a noticeably better experience to the families we serve.

What sets Kindred apart is their commitment to constant improvement and iteration. In today's AI-driven world, choosing software isn't just about where a product is today — but where the team behind it will be a year from now, and the year after that. Software is moving faster than it ever has, and you need a partner who is genuinely staying at the cutting edge. Kindred is that partner for us.”

UK data residency

Your data stays in the UK.

Kindred runs a dedicated UK deployment — separate from our US and Canadian systems — hosted here in the UK.

Funeral directors on our UK deployment have their cases, documents and records stored and processed in the UK. That supports your compliance with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, and it means you can answer the question every family and every regulator eventually asks: where does this information actually live?

What that means in practice

  • Hosted in London. Your cases, documents and records are stored and processed in London.
  • Separate from our other regions. The UK deployment has its own database, its own storage, and its own encryption keys.
  • A UK address. Your team works at uk.kindredfuneral.io, on infrastructure hosted in the UK.

Some services we connect to on your behalf — electronic signatures, card payments, SMS and email — are provided by third parties that may process data outside the UK. We will tell you which ones apply to your setup before you go live.
