Everbuddy

For when the hardest goodbye begins.

A marketplace for everything that comes after: collection and cremation, burial, memorials and grief support, from providers we've chosen, with the full price up front. We help in the first hours, and long before them if you are planning ahead.

Ever, the Everbuddy mark: a curled-up pet drawn in one line, with a small sky inside it
An Everbuddy post on night: They were never just a pet.

Why we built it

There is no aftercare service in Europe that pet owners know and trust. When the worst happens, most have no idea what to do, and few know how to prepare for it. We built Everbuddy to be there for both.

Before and after

Life before and after Everbuddy.

Without Everbuddy

A dozen calls, unclear prices

  • Prices that are hard to compare
  • No clear idea who will look after your pet

With Everbuddy

One booking, one clear price

  • Help in the first hours, with no account
  • Providers we've chosen, with the full price
  • Nothing booked until the provider confirms
  • People you can name
  • Here at 2am, and in six months

How it works

What happens, step by step.

  1. 1

    Tell us what's happening

    Your pet has just died, is going to die soon, or you are planning ahead. A few gentle questions, and no account.

  2. 2

    See what's near you

    Cremation, burial, memorials and grief support from providers we've chosen, each with the full price and what's included.

  3. 3

    Choose when you're ready

    Book one service or several. Nothing is booked until the provider confirms.

The product

What you’ll find in Everbuddy.

The guided intake, the home page and the providers near you, on a phone. The providers shown are the site's labelled examples.

The intake: Hi. I'm here to help. What's happening right now?
Providers near you: example providers, each with the full price and what's included

Why now

Why the timing is right.

  1. Germany and Austria, where Everbuddy opens in Berlin and Vienna, are home to about 18 million cats and 11 million dogs.

  2. 44% of German households keep a pet.

  3. EU law requires online marketplaces to show the full price with taxes, who the provider is and how offers are ranked.

  4. In the UK, 89% of owners did not compare cremation providers, and only 2% of vet practice websites listed cremation prices.

Proof so far

What we have already shown.

  1. Built

    Live site

    The intake, your pet's card and provider marketplace v1, in English and German.

  2. Tested

    12 reports

    Desk research on law, prices and vets. It moved the launch to Berlin, Vienna and Zurich and changed how we work with vets.

  3. Next gate

    3 cities

    Sign the first crematorium and collection partners in Berlin, Vienna and Zurich, then take the first bookings.

Two paths meeting at a signpost, one to a home and one to a clinic

Key learning

Desk research changed the plan. In the UK, vets already earn on cremation, so a referral fee will not win them over. Everbuddy now reaches owners directly as well as through vets.

The investment case

Stage

Where Everbuddy is right now.

  1. 2025

    Conception(done)

    Spun out of the Wuff platform's aftercare wedge. The problem: a dozen logistical and emotional decisions in 24 hours, served by cold, fragmented options.

  2. 2026

    Build

    Brand, tokens and the two-mode design system locked. The site is live with the intake, the pet card and provider marketplace v1, in English and German.

  3. H2 2026

    Validation

    Launch-city groundwork: owner interviews, three signed crematorium and pickup partners, and 10–20 vet clinics seeded as the demand channel.

  4. 2027

    Launch

    Berlin, Vienna and Zurich go live first, each with a chosen set of providers.

  5. 2028

    Scale

    More cities only once the first three hold their service bar; pre-need subscription tier.

The problem

When a pet dies, owners face a dozen logistical and emotional decisions in 24 hours, and the existing options (vets, ad-hoc crematoria, Google) are cold, fragmented, and built for the worst moment of someone's life.

Our solution

A two-mode marketplace: Reflective mode lets owners learn their options ahead of time; Supportive mode is the crisis intake. Three to five hand-selected providers per city, and we answer for the whole experience: pickup, cremation, return, memorial and follow-up through one company, with real people you can reach.
