How it works: Remento + Smart Cremation

Updated this week

Getting Started

Your Smart Cremation package includes access to Remento's story-preserving service. Follow these simple steps to activate your account and begin recording memories.

Activate Your Account

You can activate your Remento account in two ways:

Use the Email Instructions

  • Check your email inbox for an activation email from Remento

  • Click the activation link provided

  • Follow the prompts to get started

Scan the QR Code

  • Locate the QR code on your Remento flyer included with your Smart Cremation package

  • Use your smartphone camera to scan the code

  • Follow the link to begin activation

Create Your Profile

From either of the above two paths, you'll be asked to sign in using your email. After doing so, you'll set up your account with the following details:

  • Your name (prefilled for you to confirm or update)

  • Phone number (optional, but recommended for account recovery)

After entering this information, click continue, and then click on Activate your account to make your account active. If you want help with activation, you can reach out to our customer support team at this step.

Complete Your Onboarding

After activating your account, you'll be onboarding onto Remento with three important steps. You can skip this and add these details later as well, if need be:

1. Choose or Add Prompts

Remento offers a curated collection of prompts designed to help you share meaningful stories. You can:

  • Browse the available prompt categories

  • Select the prompts that resonate with you

  • Add your own custom prompts for personalized storytelling

2. Choose Your Writing Style

Select how you'd like your stories to be written:

  • Choose the tone and style that best represent your voice

  • This helps Remento transcribe and format your recordings in a way that feels authentic to you

3. Invite Collaborators

  • Invite family members or friends to contribute their own stories

  • Collaborate on capturing memories together

  • Share access with loved ones who want to participate

Once you've completed these steps, you'll be redirected to your Remento account dashboard, where you can start recording right away.

Begin Recording

After onboarding, you're ready to preserve your memories! Simply:

  • Select a prompt from your collection

  • Press record and share your story

  • Save and organize your recordings in your account


Two users on the same email

Important Information for users who share the same email

If you're using a single email address for two activations, you'll need to take an extra step during the activation process.

Confirming the User to activate

  1. We will send individually addressed activation emails to both users on the same email address.

  2. You will sign in using your email

  3. You'll be asked to confirm whose account you're activating

  4. After doing so, you'll go through the same activation and onboarding process as stated above.

  5. Repeat the process for each user

  6. Once both users are set up, you will be able to choose the project relevant to the user from the drop-down menu in the top left

Selecting the user upfront ensures each person gets their own dedicated space and each person's stories and recordings remain separate and organized.
