CRN Assistants: Coming Soon
A growing set of AI assistants built for chaplains and the organizations that train them. Each one arrives inside a specific membership tier. Add your email to any card, and we will tell you the moment it goes live.
Lesson Tutor
Guides a learner through any CRN lesson in plain conversation, answers questions as they arise, and checks understanding before the learner moves on. Turns a completed lesson into a coaching session that meets the chaplain where they are.
CE/Credential Navigator
Maps each chaplain's completed work to the credential they are pursuing and shows the exact hours, courses, and evidence still required. Removes the guesswork from certification and makes sure no earned progress goes uncounted.
Charting/Assessment Assistant
Helps the chaplain turn a care encounter into a clean, defensible chart note using SOAP, FICA, or HOPE. Prompts for what a strong note needs and keeps the language field-ready and within scope of practice.
Field Care Companion
Rides along in the field as a calm second mind: it surfaces the right framework, a grounding scripture, or a referral boundary the moment a chaplain needs it. Built for the call, not the classroom.
CPE Scenario Trainer
Runs spoken practice encounters at four difficulty levels, letting a chaplain rehearse hard conversations before facing them for real. Scores each attempt against a formation rubric and names the next thing to work on.
Multi-Faith Research Assistant
Answers a chaplain's question across many faith traditions with sourced, respectful, side-by-side context. Helps the chaplain serve every person in their care without overstepping their own tradition.
Research Brief Engine
Builds a fully sourced research brief on any chaplaincy topic on demand, complete with trauma-informed grounding and a citation trail. Puts the research team's output in every chaplain's hands.
Curriculum Generation Engine
Turns an organization's training goal into a structured, standards-aligned curriculum with lessons, activities, and assessments. Lets a partner org stand up an entire program in days, not months.
No charge, no card. We only email you when the assistant you asked for goes live.
