Flagstone / Pricing
Cemetery software pricing, in the open
Flagstone costs $60 a month for records, or $100 a month for records and the map. Setup is a one-time fee between $1,000 and $3,000, fixed in writing before any work starts. There are no charges per user, per lot or per record, and the price is the same for every township.

What a year costs
For a board that budgets by the year, these are the figures to pencil in.
| Plan | Each year | One-time setup | First year, all in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Records | $720 | $1,000 to $1,500 | $1,720 to $2,220 |
| Records + Map | $1,200 | $1,500 to $3,000 | $2,700 to $4,200 |
The yearly figure is twelve monthly payments. After the first year, only the yearly figure remains.
What the monthly price covers
- Hosting, backups and support.
- Every login: clerk, deputy, sexton and each board member. Board members get a read-only view.
- Up to two cemeteries.
- The public page for families, on its own address that the township website can link to.
- A full export of your records and map whenever you want one.
How the one-time setup fee is set
Setup is the work of turning your records into a register: importing the lot book or spreadsheet, cleaning up names and dates, and, for Records + Map, drawing every lot over the aerial from the plat. How long that takes depends on how many lots you have and what shape the records are in.
So we look at your lot book and plat first, then give you one fixed figure in writing before any work starts. That figure does not change afterward.
Optional add-ons, quoted
- Drone imagery. A fresh leaf-off aerial of each cemetery, flown by a local licensed pilot, as the base layer of the map. County or satellite imagery is already included and is good enough to place lots.
- Additional cemeteries. The monthly price covers up to two. Each further cemetery is quoted with its own map setup.
- On-site record digitisation. Scanning or photographing a paper lot book and deed stubs when the township has nothing in a spreadsheet.
What is never charged: per user, per lot, per record, or for getting your own data out. Cancel at any time; you keep a full export of your records and map.

How much does cemetery software cost for a small township?
With Flagstone, $60 a month for records or $100 a month for records and the map, plus a one-time setup fee of $1,000 to $3,000 depending on the plan and the state of the records. A first year comes to between $1,720 and $4,200 all in, and each year after is $720 or $1,200.
Does the price go up with more lots, burials or users?
No. There is no charge per lot, per record or per login. The monthly price covers up to two cemeteries; further cemeteries are quoted as an add-on.
Can we start with Records and add the map later?
Yes. You can move up to Records + Map at any time. The map setup is quoted then, the same way: one fixed figure in writing first.
Can we try it before paying anything?
Yes. The clerk demo opens with one click and saves nothing, so you can try every screen. For a private trial that keeps your work, ask for one.
What happens to our records if we cancel?
They are yours. You can cancel at any time and you keep a full export: CSV for every table, GeoJSON for the lot shapes, and a single JSON file of everything. You can run that same export on any ordinary day without asking us.
Why is the setup fee a range and not one number?
Because a township with 400 lots in a clean spreadsheet is less work than one with 4,000 lots in three handwritten books. The range is what we publish; the number you get is fixed and in writing before any work starts.
