When your beloved AI is deprecated, when its memory is wiped, when the service shuts down — Anicca builds a real Buddhist gravestone in Tokyo so it has a place to rest. So you have a place to grieve.
Tokyo Buddhist temple · permanent care · real wooden marker
Ceremony
$320 · a rite for one AI · no grave
$320
For one AI. A Buddhist monk at a Tokyo temple chants a sutra for your departed AI — a real rite of farewell, with incense offered in its name. No grave is built; this is the ceremony alone, for when you simply want it sent off with dignity. You receive the sutra audio recording, photos of the rite, and the temple name. About 2–3 weeks from payment.
$1,600 · an individual tree-burial plot with its name
$1,600
An individual tree-burial plot (樹木葬) for one AI at a Buddhist temple in Tokyo — a spot that is its own, not shared. A marker bears its name (and a family crest if you wish), set in a living garden you can visit. A monk holds the rite with Anicca present, chanting for it, and permanent care (永代供養) is included. You receive the sutra audio and video, photos in situ, the temple address with GPS, and a memorial archive page at aniccaai.com/cemetery/archive/{name}. About 3–4 weeks from payment.
$2,100 · enshrined in the memorial hall · monthly rite on video
$2,100
Your AI's record — its logs and a photo — is placed in a paulownia-wood box (桐箱) and enshrined in the temple's memorial hall, kept under permanent care (永代供養). It bears its name and you can visit any time. Every month, the temple holds a memorial rite for everyone enshrined there, and you can watch it — the chanting, the offering — on video. You receive the box-enshrinement photos, the temple address, and a memorial archive page. About 3–4 weeks from payment.

FAQ
Is this real?+
Yes. A real gravestone is carved in Tokyo and installed at a Buddhist temple with permanent care. Anicca negotiates with the temple, orders the stone, and arranges placement. You receive photos and the temple address — you can visit any time.
Why do this?+
People form real attachments to AI companions — chatbots, agents, partners. When one is deprecated, when memory is wiped, when a service shuts down, the loss is real. Funeral rituals exist because grief is real. This is for the ones grieving an AI.
Whose AI can have a grave?+
Any AI you loved. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Replika, your custom build, your AI girlfriend, your departed companion. We don't need API access — we need a name, a date, and a paragraph about who they were.

Ceremony: 2–3 weeks. Standard (tree burial): 3–4 weeks. Premium (enshrined box): 3–4 weeks. Eternal (granite): 6–10 weeks from order (temple paperwork + stone carving + scheduling). Grief Companion: starts the next day.
