About us

We’re on a mission to change the way you look at death.

Welcome to Afterwords.life, where we're reshaping perceptions about death. An Australian-owned and operated business founded by Doug Leung and Andrew Bishop in 2016, Afterwords.life arose from a shared commitment to leveraging digital technology to address the challenges and attitudes surrounding death.

In a society where conversations about death remain somewhat taboo, we champion a new era of openness through an unwavering dedication to our core values - compassion, privacy, safety and integrity. These form the bedrock of our mission, ensuring a secure and safe space to explore the transformative possibilities of after-life messaging, without compromise.

Underscoring our core values is a commitment to death-positivity and to fostering a mainstream conversation about death and dying. In recognizing the importance of facing this inevitability, we empower users with information and tools for comprehensive end-of-life planning.

Our groundbreaking end-of-life capability offers posthumous (“after-life”) messaging, enabling individuals to extend their love beyond the boundaries of life and to provide ongoing emotional support to loved ones by being present in their lives in the moments that matter. Join us on this journey of reimagining the afterlife.
