WHAT CHANGES

Three outcomes for your committee.

Curate, evaluate, and track together. One workspace your committee can use across every giving cycle.

OUTCOME 1 — CURATE

Curate a recommended list for your congregation.

Create named collections of vetted organizations. Share them with your congregation via a simple link. Every organization includes cited match explanations so members can see the rationale behind each recommendation.

OUTCOME 2 — EVALUATE

Evaluate together in a shared workspace.

Committee members collaborate in real-time deal rooms. Threaded discussions, shared documents, private and team notes, and AI-assisted Q&A that retrieves answers only from verified documents in the room.

OUTCOME 3 — TRACK

Track your congregation's collective impact.

See where your church's giving goes and what it accomplishes. Funded organizations submit structured impact reports at six and twelve months. Report back to your congregation with confidence — and archive the whole cycle for the annual meeting.

Faith alignment

Built for the faith community. Never prescriptive.

Catylst supports Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, Non-denominational, and Interdenominational congregations. Faith alignment is always optional and always dignified. The platform never ranks denominations, never scores belief, and always offers “Prefer not to specify” as the first option on every faith field. Reviewed by pastoral advisors before launch.

  • Protestant
  • Catholic
  • Orthodox
  • Non-denominational
  • Interdenominational

Common questions

Questions from missions committees.

The faith taxonomy supports broad Christian identity categories — Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, Non-denominational, and Interdenominational — and always allows a free-text “in my own words” statement. No denomination is ranked above another. Skipping the faith fields entirely carries zero penalty to match quality.

Yes, private by default. Committee conversations live behind row-level security, audit-logged, and scoped to your church’s workspace. Private pastoral notes are never shared with organizations. Donor congregations can decide what is visible to members and what stays inside the committee.

No. Catylst is reviewed by a group of trusted pastoral advisors and never provides theological guidance. The platform supports faith-aligned and secular giving alike and will never rank denominations, score belief, or nudge a committee toward a specific doctrinal position.

Yes. The interface uses plain labels, generous touch targets, and guided workflows. Committee members receive invitations by email and can participate in deal-room discussions without any technical setup. Accessibility conforms to WCAG 2.2 AA.

Yes, free to start. The Free tier lets any church explore Catylst with no credit card. Individual and Team tiers add concurrent deal rooms and grant packages for committees running multiple giving decisions in parallel. Group pricing for larger congregations is available on request.

No. Catylst is a giving evaluation and recommendation tool, not a church management system. It complements your existing tools by adding structured diligence to the missions-giving conversation — it does not track attendance, small groups, or membership.

Give your missions committee the tools they deserve.
