Phase 1 · Getting started
Nobody hands you a manual for this. So we wrote one, with more than a hundred tasks gathered into four calm chapters, so you always know the one next thing, and never the whole weight at once.
The whole road, in four chapters.
Care for your loved one, the funeral home, and the calls that can't wait: family, employer, and securing the home. We tell you what needs doing now, and what can wait.
Planning a goodbye that feels like them, ordering death certificates, and gathering the documents you'll keep reaching for over the coming weeks.
Probate, closing accounts, claiming benefits, and notifying banks and agencies. The paperwork maze, walked one plain-language step at a time.
Distributing what's left, transferring property, and reaching the end of the list, so you can finally set it down and rest.
We only ever ask for the next thing.
The whole list is always there when you want it. But on the hard days, Omuna quietly sets everything else aside and shows you one step, in plain language. Do that one. The rest keeps.
Your next step
Order 10 certified copies of the death certificate
Banks, insurers, and the DMV will each ask for an original. Ten covers most families. We'll tell you where to get them.
Resting until you're ready for them.
Grief brings fog. Omuna brings a next step.
The details don't have to live in your head. Omuna holds the whole structure and keeps showing you where you are.
Deadlines for Social Security, probate, and insurance are tracked for you, so nothing sits at the back of your mind.
Invite family or trusted friends and hand off tasks, so no single person carries all of it.
Every task sits inside one of four chapters, so you always know where you are and what's next.
The right words, when you need them most.
Gentle, AI-assisted writing help, built into Omuna and free to use whenever you're ready.
Real families, real relief.
The "full-time job" of loss, made lighter.
"I had no idea how many steps there were. It's a full-time job nobody warns you about. This was my lifeline when I couldn't even think straight."

In the first 24–48 hours, focus on four things: have the death legally pronounced, contact a funeral home, notify immediate family members, and secure the person's home. Omuna walks you through each step in order — plus handles obituary writing, notifications, and estate paperwork — so nothing gets missed.
Yes. Everything — the guided checklist, estate settlement guides, obituary writer, memorial pages, and notification tools — is completely free. No credit card required. We believe families shouldn't have to pay to know what to do next.
Most families face 100+ tasks spread across legal, financial, and personal categories — from ordering death certificates and filing for probate, to closing bank accounts and notifying Social Security. Omuna organizes all of them into four manageable phases.
Not always. Many estates can be settled without an attorney, especially if there's a clear will and limited assets. Omuna's plain-language guides help you understand probate, executor duties, and when professional help is worth it.
Probate is the court process that validates a will and authorizes the executor to distribute assets. Whether you need it depends on your state, the estate's size, and how assets are titled. Our Probate 101 guide explains it without the legal jargon.
Yes. You can invite family members or trusted friends to your checklist and hand off specific tasks. No single person should have to carry all of it.
PDF checklists give you a static list. Omuna is a full platform: a guided task manager that tracks your progress across probate, estate settlement, and benefits; an obituary writer; a memorial page builder; a notification tool; and a library of plain-language guides — all in one place, all free.
