Ask AI, and set up EmmauOS from Claude or ChatGPT

Pastors ask their church a question in plain words and get answers from the real list and Planning Center, as cards and charts. A setup prompt lets Claude or ChatGPT sign in and set your church up with you.

Tracks your way, and where people start

Add the tracks your church actually runs, each with its own stages. Steps tick themselves from EmmauOS and Planning Center, and people say where they are starting for staff to confirm.

Another season together, and moving to whole life

Two weeks before a season ends, the discipler is asked first whether to walk another; silence holds the walk for two weeks rather than ending it, and an exploring walk can move to whole life.

Pause a walk's emails, and fewer emails instead of none

Either person on a walk can pause its emails for four weeks without anyone being told who. A discipler's first unsubscribe now turns off the choice email only. Week three and week six bring a short check-in.

One question a week for each walk

Each walk now gets one question a week from your church. The discipler chooses it the morning after they meet, and it reaches the person they walk with the evening before the next meeting.

EmmauOS keeps up with what your church already did

Planning Center stays fresh overnight, placements and serving fill the timeline, follow-up goes to the person who looks after the ministry, and the digest says when a placement goes quiet or a signal starts rising.

Walking with: concerns and the safeguarding contact's page

Either person on a walk can now raise a concern from their stop link, and your safeguarding contact follows it up on a page of their own. A concern that is kept is reviewed every three years, never kept by silence.
