FAQ Topic
How accurate is Obituary.AI?
Short answer
Obituary.AI is not designed to be clinically accurate. It is a dramatic, shareable, entertainment-first longevity quiz.
What the score actually does
The score translates answer quality into a weighted range, then turns that range into a result card, a tier label, and several supporting modules. It reflects your input pattern, not a medical assessment.
That means it is useful for storytelling, self-reflection, and social comparison. It is not useful for diagnosis, treatment planning, or estimating a real death date.
Why people still find it compelling
Because the output feels specific. The tier names, supporting modules, and comparisons give the result emotional shape. That can feel 'accurate' in a psychological sense even when it is not medically precise.
