Happily eVRafter.

eVRafter is a
new kind of shared experience.

eVRafter is a digital afterlife recreation service created by brothers Gabriel & Lucius Gately after they lost their mother, Marianne. Instead of mourning their loss, the twins began to develop an incredibly detailed digital recreation of their hero.

A few short years later, our team of industry-leading VFX artists, animators and engineers can now painstakingly reconstruct your loved one in astonishing detail. From the smallest facial expression to the gait of their walk, every physical idiosyncrasy that made them the unique individual they were is lovingly repainted in high definition.

We work closely with our clients to research and digitally recreate loved ones from the wealth of information stored about their life. Their social media data, their personal photography, your family stories.

Revisit those places and times you shared together. Create new memories.

With our virtual reality based platform, you can visit and share new experiences with your loved ones in the places you both loved, all realised in unsurpassed levels of visual detail.

It starts from a single photograph.

Our team of designers, animators and machine-learning specialists will bring your pictures and everything within them back to life. Do the things you used to do, together. In the places they were at their happiest. Whenever and wherever you like.

Frequently asked questions

Who are eVRafter?
eVRafter was founded by brothers Lucius and Gabriel Gately as a grief management tool for the bereaved. After we were able to launch our own Mum, Marianne, into a VR post-life platform and dispense with the need for grieving, we knew we just had to share what we were developing. We now have a small friendly team working across a couple of studios in the UK but we are growing fast!
How much does it cost?
We see building an eVRafter is an investment and we have a range of financing plans to help you make the most of your money, whatever your budget. You can invest a lump sum or pay weekly, with the opportunity to add additional facilities as you go.
How do I begin?
You already have. Whatever your situation, we are really happy to talk with you about next steps. Just get in touch and we can begin to build a picture of your loved one and your vision for their happiness.
How long does it take?
The quickest we have completed a restoration is 6 weeks, but expect an development time of 6-9 months. This is to allow for the engagement of anyone and everyone who has an interest in the eVRafter we are building together. The process is iterative and a lot of the time it takes is down to you and how long you need to make a decision: there is no rush - eternity is a long time!
How long can I go in and spend time?
This varies from package to package as we do not want to put limits on your relationships. Your loved one will be available 24/7 but how long you want to spend with them is entirely up to you and your budget.
Is there an age limit?
There is currently no legal age limit.
What kind of equipment do I need? Do I need a powerful computer and a VR headset?
The best current equipment for you will be provided as part of your investment.
Can I try before I buy?
It is sometimes possible by arrangement for new customers to visit our existing loved ones however we try not to use accounts in this way. It is possible however to see Gabriel in discussion with his eVRafter Mum by requesting a link.
Do you provide grief counseling?
VRafter is a grief management tool. We do not believe that our customers need counselling as in many ways nobody has really died. Gabriel and Lucius spend time out with Mum every day & they have never once even visited her grave!
