First, let’s clarify the terminology
While the public often uses the term cryogenic freezing, medical professionals and biostasis providers prefer cryopreservation. Why?
- Cryogenic freezing implies traditional freezing with ice crystals — which can damage cells.
- Cryopreservation uses vitrification, a process that avoids ice formation entirely by turning tissues into a glass-like state at -196°C.
So while the phrase “cryogenic freezing” might be popular, it’s important to know that what’s actually offered is a much more sophisticated and scientifically grounded approach: cryopreservation.
What does cryopreservation include?
At Tomorrow.bio, cryopreservation is a comprehensive medical and logistical service that includes:
- 24/7 standby and rapid response team
When a member is close to legal death, a medical team is dispatched immediately to be on-site and ready. - Stabilization after legal death
As soon as death is legally confirmed, the team begins cooling the body and administering medications to protect tissue from damage. - Transport to the preservation facility
The patient is transported in a specially equipped ambulance or aircraft (depending on location) to the long-term storage site. - Vitrification and cooling
The body is perfused with cryoprotectants and gradually cooled to -196°C using advanced equipment to prevent damage from ice formation. - Long-term storage
The body is stored in a cryogenic tank under constant monitoring. No electricity is needed to maintain this temperature — only liquid nitrogen. - Membership and planning support
Includes legal documentation, access to educational resources, and ongoing assistance with end-of-life planning.
So, what does cryogenic freezing (cryopreservation) cost?
Th cost of cryopreservation varies by provider, region, and type of preservation. At Tomorrow.bio, the pricing of Standby & Storage is as follows:
💠 Full-body cryopreservation: €200,000
🧠 Brain-only cryopreservation: €75,000
Our Membership fee can be paid with the following options:
・Monthly Plan: €50/month
・Yearly Plan: €500/year*
・Lifetime Plan: €9,999

Is there a payment plan?
Yes — most people fund cryopreservation through life insurance.
For example, a healthy adult in their 30s can often secure a policy for a few hundred euros per year that pays out €200,000 upon their legal death. That payout goes directly to Tomorrow.bio to cover preservation.
This structure makes cryopreservation accessible to many people who don’t have that amount of cash on hand, and allows planning for the long term.
Are there hidden fees?
Not with Tomorrow.bio. Transparency is one of our core values. The Standby & Storage€200,000 fee includes:
- Dispatch of medical teams to the patient’s location at the event of death.
- Full cryopreservation procedure.
- Indefinite patient storage at our Swiss facility.
- Future revival, once available.
-
The Membership fee includes:
- 24/7 readiness of our standby teams.
- Medical equipment (ambulances, heart-lung machine, etc.) and training in the latest cryoprotection procedures.
- Ongoing staff instruction and business costs.
- Continuous customer support.
- Furthering the mission and research of Tomorrow.bio and cryonics in general.
What about preserving pets?
Tomorrow.bio also offers pet cryopreservation — a newer service designed for those who want to preserve the possibility of a future with their animal companion.
Prices are typically lower than human preservation and vary based on size and species. You can use our pet price calculator to get a custom estimate.
Why cryopreservation is an investment in possibility
Let’s be clear: cryopreservation is not a guarantee of revival. It’s an experimental process based on scientific potential and a belief in future progress.
So why do people choose it?
- Because traditional death is final.
- Because they value choice, autonomy, and the future.
- Because they want to preserve their body, brain, and identity for a time when new treatments may exist.
Compared to luxury retirement options or costly treatments with low odds of success, cryopreservation is an affordable, one-time investment in a future that might one day be within reach.
