Churches, synagogues & parishes
The church secretary is also the IT department.
Congregations, parishes, synagogues, dioceses, and the small staffs that hold them together.
What actually happens
One or two administrative staff carry the bookkeeping, the payroll, the building calendar, the newsletter, and every technology decision. Nobody administers the Microsoft 365 tenant. The offering counting happens on a laptop that has not been patched in two years. When that person retires, the operation goes with them.
What we do about it
- The operations platform for member records, contributions, invoicing, and the email that currently goes out from somebody's personal account
- A website a volunteer can update, with members-only areas and giving pages built in
- Managed IT for a building with staff, volunteers, a preschool or school, and public wifi
- A dedicated teammate for bookkeeping, reception, and records at a cost a small congregation can carry
- OLi reading where the administrative hours actually go — usually not where anyone assumed
The outcome
Administrative capacity that does not depend on one irreplaceable person.
Who you are probably using today
Organizations like yours typically run some combination of Planning Center, Breeze, Tithe.ly, Realm, Pushpay, ShulCloud and a one-person IT shop. We are not asking you to leave the software. We administer what you own and do the work inside it — the comparison page sets out where each kind of vendor is genuinely stronger.
What that looks like in practice
OLi — AI enablement
Dataken's AI platform, packaged so a mission organization can actually buy it and actually use it.

A public site that looks like your organization deserves, and that a volunteer can update without breaking.
Operations platform
Member and contact records, invoicing, payments, and communications in one system, under our name and our support.
Managed IT
A real IT function for an organization that cannot justify hiring one.
Back office & resourcing
Dedicated teammates doing the administrative work, at a cost that fits a mission budget.
