Plain language over jargon
Most families do not have a vocabulary for what they are facing. We write everything the way a clear-headed friend would.
About rip.com
A calmer place for the hardest decisions.
rip.com helps families plan ahead, navigate a loss, find care, and remember someone well — without spreadsheets, scattered tabs, or sales pressure.
We started rip.com because end-of-life logistics fall on people who are already exhausted. The product is designed to slow things down, name the next step, and protect privacy while families decide.
At a glance
- Free get-started flow and obituary writer.
- Memorials private by default, never auto-published.
- Care marketplace covers funeral homes, cemeteries, and hospice.
- Plain-language guides instead of legal boilerplate.
What we believe
Four ideas that shape every page on this site.
Private until you say otherwise
Drafts, checklists, and memorials stay private by default. Publishing is always a separate, deliberate step.
One place for the whole arc
Planning, care, and remembrance are usually scattered across binders, browser tabs, and phone calls. We pull them into one account.
Honest about limits
rip.com is not a law firm, a funeral home, or a financial advisor. We organize decisions and surface trusted providers — and we say so.
