A charity or church with staff and volunteers?

Your team and volunteers are busy, and the rotas, newsletters and grant applications still land on you. I set up AI so everyone works the same way, then look after it and help your team use it.

Or call 01206 636 400, or , my AI assistant.

What I'd set up for you

Rotas without the ring-round

Something else on your mind?

Tell me what eats your week. If AI won't save you real time, I'll tell you.

Every business is different. I start by sitting down with you to see how your week actually works, then suggest only what will save you real time.

An example · made up

Sunday to Sunday

The rota goes out on Monday, reminders on Friday, and swaps sort themselves out by message. The coordinator gets their weekends back.

Colchester has a strong network of churches and charities. Simple tools shared between volunteers save hours every week, and free up people for the work itself.

Hear Amy take a call

Seaview Community Larder

A newly retired man rings to volunteer, and to drop off some tins.

Made-up call, 1:25. Amy is the same AI assistant that answers 01206 636 400.

Read the call
  1. Amy Hello, you've reached Seaview Community Larder in Clacton. I'm Amy, Pat's AI assistant, and calls are recorded so Pat gets your message. How can I help?
  2. Caller Good afternoon. I've just retired, and I've time on my hands. Do you need any volunteers?
  3. Amy We'd love to hear from you. I'll just check the rota.
  4. Amy The biggest gap is Thursday mornings, nine till twelve, sorting donations. Would that suit?
  5. Caller Thursdays are fine. Thirty years in a warehouse, so sorting's right up my street.
  6. Amy Perfect. Pat likes a quick chat with every new volunteer first. Can I take your name?
  7. Caller Geoff Pickering. Best to ring the landline: 01632 960418.
  8. Amy Thanks, Geoff. That's 01632 960418. Pat will ring you this week.
  9. Caller Lovely. And I've some tins in the cupboard. Can I drop them in?
  10. Amy Yes, please. Donations come in any weekday, ten till two. This week we're short of tinned fish, long-life milk and toiletries.
  11. Caller I'll have a look. Thanks very much.
  12. Amy Thank you, Geoff. It really does make a difference.
