Autumn
Autumn is a New York-based deathcare startup that built what it called the world's first deathcare marketplace: a free platform that walks bereaved Americans through the tangle of tasks that follow a death - funerals, estates, probate, moving, grief - with step-by-step guides and a directory of more than 500,000 local providers like funeral homes, estate attorneys, financial planners and grief specialists. Launched in July 2022 with a $600,000 pre-seed round led by Bullish, the company made the process free for grieving families and earned revenue from providers who paid to be listed.
