Obitix is a funeral transport and chain-of-custody app for funeral homes, removal technicians, and families. It replaces paper logs, scattered phone calls, and unclear status updates with one record of every transfer from first call to final delivery.
Funeral work depends on trust, timing, and a clear record of who had care of the deceased at every step. Obitix is built for that. Staff can create and assign transports, technicians can document the job in the field, and families can follow progress without calling the funeral home for every update.
WHO IT IS FOR
Funeral home administrators use Obitix to run the day: new cases, staff assignments, live transport status, documents, notifications, and organization settings. Removal technicians use it on the road to accept jobs, scan QR codes, log custody events, take photos, record voice notes, and share live location while a transport is active. Families use a simpler view to see where their loved one is in the process and when new updates or documents are available.
TRANSPORT AND CASE MANAGEMENT
Create a transport with pickup and destination details, assign a technician, and follow the case from scheduled to in progress, in transit, and completed. The dashboard shows active jobs, completed work, and recent activity so the funeral home always knows what is happening. Multiple locations and organizations are supported so teams can switch context without losing the case record.
LIVE GPS TRACKING
When a technician starts an active transport, Obitix can share GPS so funeral home staff and the family can see the vehicle on a live map. Background location is used only during an active transport. Technicians are often driving with the phone locked or in another app, so tracking must continue until pickup or delivery is complete. Location is not used for advertising, marketing, or unrelated tracking. When the transport ends, live sharing stops.
CHAIN OF CUSTODY
Every handoff can be recorded with time, place, and the person responsible. Technicians scan QR codes linked to the decedent, add custody events, and keep a digital log that funeral home staff can review. This gives the organization a clearer record for internal review, family questions, and compliance needs.
QR CODES AND FIELD DOCUMENTATION
Generate and scan QR codes for each case so the right record is opened at the scene. Technicians can capture photos at pickup, transfer, and delivery, attach notes, and record voice logs when typing is not practical. Photos and location can be stored with the event so the file shows what happened and where.
FAMILY UPDATES
Families should not have to guess. Obitix can show transport progress, notify them when status changes, and let them view documents when the funeral home makes them available. The goal is a calm, clear update path during a difficult time.
NOTIFICATIONS AND TEAM COORDINATION
Push notifications alert technicians to new assignments and status changes. Staff and families can receive updates when a transport starts, moves, or is completed. Emergency alerts can be sent from the field if something goes wrong on the route.
DOCUMENTS, REPORTS, AND SETTINGS
Keep case documents in one place, download reports when needed, and manage organization settings such as notifications, branding, and compliance preferences. Administrators can manage staff accounts, roles, and access. Users can switch organizations when they belong to more than one funeral home.
PLANS AND ADVANCED TOOLS
Essential tools include case tracking, QR codes, mobile access, and reports. Higher plans can add voice logging, a family portal, analytics, automated notifications, multi-source intake, AI-assisted tools, blockchain verification of custody logs, and compliance reporting. Features depend on the funeral home’s subscription.
