Real-world use case

Memorial QR Codes for Lasting Digital Tributes

Place a small QR code on a gravestone, memorial bench, or tribute plaque. When someone visits and scans it, they hear the story of a life well lived — told by AI, shaped by the people who loved them.

More Than Dates on Stone

A gravestone shows a name and two dates. A memorial QR code tells the full story — childhood memories, career achievements, favorite jokes, the little things that made someone special. Visitors can ask questions and learn about someone they may never have met.

How It Works

Write the story of your loved one in ThingCore. Add memories, timeline, and personality traits. The AI weaves these into a warm, respectful conversation that visitors can have simply by scanning the QR code. Voice or text.

Built to Last

Use a weatherproof QR sticker or engraved QR plate. The digital story lives in the cloud and can be updated anytime. As new memories surface, add them. The memorial grows and lives on.
