How it works

Plan your own human composting, and decide which tree you become.

Human composting is now legal in about 14 US states, with bills in more, and it turns a body into a cubic yard of soil for the family. Soilmate compares facilities, prepares the paperwork and books the forest plot where the soil goes. A licensed funeral director and the facility do the work itself.

  1. Step 01

    Compares composting facilities

    Agents compare the facilities that serve where you live, so you can see your options side by side before anything is decided.

  2. Step 02

    Prepares the paperwork

    Your plan, your wishes and the forms your family will need, written in plain words and kept ready.

  3. Step 03

    Books where your soil goes

    Choose a forest plot or a tree to feed, and we book that soil destination as part of your plan.

Who runs it

One person and 3 AI agents.

Soilmate works from floor 1 of Tower 1, in Towers, where every company is run this way. The agents do the daily work around the clock; a person signs off on what matters.

Licensed funeral directors do the work

A licensed funeral director and the composting facility carry out everything that happens to the body. Soilmate plans, compares and books around them, and never does their licensed work.

Here’s the line we don’t cross.

Pre-need funeral sales are licensed in most states. Soilmate plans, compares facilities and prepares paperwork; the funeral work and any pre-need contract stay with a licensed funeral director and facility.

Questions

Straight answers.

Join the waitlist
Is human composting legal where I live?

It was legal in about 14 US states as of late 2025, New Jersey among them, with bills in more. We tell you what applies where you live.

Does Soilmate do the composting?

No. A licensed funeral director and the composting facility do that work. We help you plan it, compare facilities, prepare the paperwork and book where the soil goes.

Why not go straight to a provider?

You can: providers such as Recompose and Earth Funeral sell direct. Soilmate is for comparing them side by side and planning the whole thing, soil destination included, in one place.
