Continuity
New leaders can inspect the original discussion
Incoming elders, pastors, and administrators can trace an answer back to the board or committee record behind it.
Churches and Denominational Bodies
Stop losing memory at every transition.
Dossier is the shared memory for your leadership today and the leaders who follow them. Decisions, denominational commitments, capital projects, deadlines. All findable in seconds, with sources attached.

Setup takes minutes. No IT project. No team training.
Leadership rotates. The decisions they made should not disappear with them.
Elders serve a term and move on. Pastors accept a new call. Every transition resets the church's working memory.
New leaders start with no context
They inherit the role but not the reasoning behind prior decisions.
Pastoral transitions wipe the slate
Years of conversations can leave with one person.
Committees work over email, then disband
Recommendations survive, but the reasoning often does not.
Denominational relationships lose continuity
Commitments and context fall through the cracks at transitions.
Your leadership keeps using email. Dossier becomes the church's memory.
No app to install. No training for volunteers. No IT project.

Dossier - Grace Community Church
"Where are we on the fellowship hall renovation, what did the board decide, and what's still outstanding?"
Dossier
The board commissioned scope and budget work for the fellowship hall renovation in October 2025. After reviewing three contractor bids and gathering congregational input at the November town hall, the board approved Heritage Builders for Phase 1 in March 2026, covering kitchen and flooring replacement at a cost not to exceed $62,000. Phase 2 (HVAC and accessibility upgrades, estimated $80,000) was deferred to the 2027 capital plan after Pastor Reynolds raised concerns about overlap with the youth ministry funding cycle. Phase 1 work is scheduled to begin in June.

Re: Fellowship hall renovation - board vote
Re: Phase 2 deferral - 2027 capital plan rationale
Ask the questions new church leaders usually inherit midstream.
The value shows up when a board member, pastor, or administrator needs to recover the context behind an older decision.
- "What did the board decide about the fellowship hall renovation?"
- "What did the contractor commit to before the fall launch?"
- "Why was Phase 2 of the project deferred?"
- "What deadlines are outstanding with the denomination or insurer?"
- "Who agreed to coordinate the next vendor walkthrough?"
- "What did the previous board already decide about this budget item?"
Leadership transitions do not have to break the record.
A sourced answer helps church leaders recover the emails and documents behind a decision instead of relying on whoever still remembers it.
Accountability
Commitments stay attached to the source
Vendor promises, denominational follow-ups, and internal decisions remain tied to the emails and documents where they were made.
Clarity
Incomplete history is still visible as incomplete
If some older material was never shared, the available record remains inspectable instead of being turned into overconfident summary.
What changes when the record exists.
Once the record exists in one place, the math shifts for your team.
"What changes for our church?"
Based on the record your team builds, here's what changes:
- 01
Leadership transitions don't reset the record.
Incoming pastors and elders inherit context, not silence.
- 02
Committee work outlives the committee.
Recommendations stay tied to the threads that produced them.
- 03
Defend past board decisions instantly.
The vote, the debate, and the source, one click away.
- 04
Capital projects span terms cleanly.
Multi-year decisions stay coherent across leadership changes.
- 05
Denominational continuity at every transition.
Letters and commitments outlast the person who held the relationship.
Pricing
Simple pricing.
$99/month per church.
Unlimited users. Unlimited threads.
Less than the cost of one bad decision made because nobody could find the last one.

Your leadership changes. Your church's mission does not. Dossier makes sure the decisions stay.
A few practical questions before a church starts.
Dossier is meant to help volunteer and staff leaders keep continuity without creating another heavyweight system.
Do leaders need to stop using email?
No. The workflow on this page is built around the communication habits churches already have. Leaders keep using email and shared documents, and Dossier works around that.
How is this different from AI features in Gmail or other inbox tools?
Inbox AI is built to help one person move faster through their own mail. It can summarize a single thread, pull a fact from an old email, or draft a reply. Dossier does a different job: it turns the threads and documents your leadership shares into a sourced record of what was decided, by whom, and when. Even the strongest inbox AI does not stitch a board or committee decision together across three separate threads spread over six months, treat decisions and denominational commitments as their own searchable objects, or carry that record forward when an elder steps down or a pastor accepts a new call.
Can this help after a pastoral or board transition?
Yes. That is one of the main reasons to use it. New leaders can recover decisions, commitments, and context from before they stepped into the role.
What if only some committees share their history?
It is still useful. Dossier answers from the record that exists and keeps the source material visible so leaders know what the answer is based on.
Does this replace our document storage or official records?
No. It complements them by helping leaders recover the conversations, decisions, and commitments behind the documents they already keep.
How do you handle our data?
Your threads are never used to train AI models. Data is transmitted over an encrypted connection. Only members you invite can see your Dossier, and you can delete your data, export it, or close your account at any time.
