Tukios Expands Obituary Customization Tools with New AI and Layout Features
Ogden, UT – May 6, 2026 — Tukios, a leader in funeral technology solutions, has introduced several new features that give funeral homes more control over how online memorials look, read, and function. These updates focus on customization, flexibility, and preserving the voice of each family while improving presentation and readability.
Funeral professionals can now use Obituary Stories to add fully customizable text sections directly within obituaries. This allows for more structured storytelling, including headings, highlighted messages, service details, or personalized notes. Obituary Stories gives funeral homes greater flexibility to organize content and emphasize meaningful parts of a life story without being limited to text only found in the obituary.
Another new feature allows photos to be embedded directly within obituary text. Funeral homes can now place images exactly where they belong in the story, rather than limiting them to a gallery. The editor supports captions, borders, alignment controls, hyperlinks, and adjustable sizing. This makes it possible to create more visually engaging obituaries that follow the timeline of a person’s life.
Additional Obituary Display Enhancements
Alongside these newer tools, Tukios continues to expand customization options that allow funeral homes to tailor obituary presentation. Funeral homes can enhance obituaries with video backgrounds, improved photo display layouts, and additional visual formatting options that help create more polished and personalized tribute pages.
Tukios has also introduced a guestbook post photo safety feature. When AI detects potentially sensitive or unsafe images in guestbook submissions, the photo is automatically hidden. A notice appears in its place, allowing visitors to choose whether to reveal the image. This prevents unexpected exposure while still giving users full control over what they view.
Together, these updates give funeral homes more flexibility to personalize obituaries, improve readability, and create more meaningful tribute experiences for families.
Availability
These obituary customization features are now available within the Tukios platform. Availability may vary depending on configuration and feature rollout status. Funeral homes interested in learning more can call Tukios or reach out to their account manager.
