The best shul software. Built in 2026, not 1996.
The shul office, finally organized: one record for every member, and software that collects the dues, follows up the pledge and gets the minyan change out before anyone asks. Membership, pledges, the building campaign and the dinner — without anyone remembering to.
The treasurer's spreadsheet is the shul's memory.
Three problems every shul board has lived through — and what we built so they stop happening.
Your other software is a system of record. 613OS is a growth engine.
Everything else stores what already happened and waits for a human. 613OS goes and does the work — collecting, following up, filling, answering — on every member and donor you have, all day, whether or not anyone remembered.
System of record — what you have now
Growth engine — what 613OS does for you
The spreadsheet records what happened. 613OS collects, follows up and fills — so the volunteer's job gets smaller every year, not bigger.
Dues that collect themselves.
Membership tiers, annual billing, household records and confidential arrangements — the administrative backbone of the shul, minus the ledger book. Every household is one record: the member, a spouse, the children, the seats they hold, the dues plan and every invoice and payment.
When the treasurer or board changes, nothing is lost. Every member, arrangement, pledge and payment lives in the system rather than one volunteer's spreadsheet — institutional memory that survives every transition. And no awkward conversation at kiddush: renewal, reminder and follow-up run on their own.
Bima → bank.
A pledge made from the bima or at the appeal enters the member's record and turns into money — without a single phone call from the office.
Every fund its own item. Every gift on the record.
The building fund, Maot Chitim, the kiddush fund and an Israel campaign never blur together. A donation lands on the household's record under the fund it was given to, and the Annual Contribution Statement totals the year for each member.
Nobody else builds this in, because nobody else built it for our world. Dedication fields, yahrzeit giving and matching multiples are standard here — not notes fields you hack around.
The shul's calendar, on the shul's record.
Seat season, the yahrzeit list and the week's honors — the three jobs that live on the back of an envelope today — each on the household record, each with its follow-up built in. Each one is marked live today or dated.
| Household | This week | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Cohen | Yahrzeit · Mon (after sunset) | Family reminded |
| Levy | Shlishi · $180 pledge | Paid |
| Friedman | Maftir · $360 pledge | Reminder sent |

The dinner, sold out before the night.
Tiered tickets, table sponsorships, journal ads and honoree pages — your biggest night of the year, sold and tracked in one place, with the money collected when it is reserved. Kiddush sponsorships and event tickets land on the same household record as dues and pledges.
| Offering | Sold | Collected | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sponsor tables | 8 of 10 | $28,800 | Paid |
| Seats | 142 | $25,560 | Paid |
| Journal ads | 37 pages | $19,250 | Artwork due Mar 2 |
Statements, the ledger & QuickBooks — what's live, and when.
Every invoice and every payment is on the household record today. The fund-by-fund ledger that turns them into a treasurer's books launches with our pilot shul in December 2026 — opening balances imported from your current system, the treasurer signing an acceptance report before anything counts, and a parallel run through a full dues cycle so you switch only when the numbers match. Until then we don't call what we have a ledger.
Your shiurim, online — free or paid, your choice.
For the members who can't come in person — the homebound, the seniors, the son in Dallas — 613OS runs your Zoom classes end to end: registration, the link, a WhatsApp reminder an hour before, and the recording filed by series. Every series is your call: open to all, or behind a paywall.
| Series | Schedule | Access | This week |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daf Yomi | Thu 8:00 PM | Free | Link sent · filed |
| Tuesday shiur | Tue 8:30 PM | Members | 12 on Zoom |
| Chabura | Sun 9:00 PM | Paid | Paid link only |
Shabbos to Shabbos, without anyone remembering.
Eight things that happened this week in a shul on 613OS — and nobody in the office had to start any of them.
Same kehilla. Same gabbai. Same volunteer treasurer. The difference is what happens when nobody's watching.
Tell the AI what to do. It handles the rest.
Say what you need in plain words. It knows your members, funds and wording, writes each household its own message, shows you a preview and the count — and asks before it sends.
An older member drops a check at the office? Just tell the AI. Or snap a photo of the check — it's logged to the member's record and the receipt goes out. Seconds, not a pile of data entry.
The whole kehilla, one send.
Announcements, scheduling notes and simcha updates by WhatsApp and email — from the shul's official line, not someone's personal phone, to every household or just the right ones.
Built by a payments company. Priced like one.
One processor, one dashboard, one rate you can actually read. Accept every way your members want to pay — and every payment lands on the right household record. Eight ways they can pay:
We specialize in lowering card rates for 501(c)(3) organizations: shuls typically save 30–40% on card fees after we take over the account. Your plan fee is credited back when you process with 613OS Payments — $1 flat ACH, 2.9% + 30¢ cards, $25 returned payment, never a per-member fee. Your numbers, not our claims — run them on the savings calculator.
One record. Four jobs made lighter.
The gabbai, the treasurer, the board and the rav each work from the same household record — and each gets a different piece of the work off their plate.
The volunteer job that runs itself.
Dues renewals, pledge follow-up and announcements go out on their own; the gabbai logs the week's honors from his phone and is done. The role stays an honor.
Numbers that are current, not reconstructed.
Every household's balance, every pledge and every payment in one place, so the board packet is built from the record — and nothing walks out the door when the treasurer changes.
Raise more, chase less.
Pledge follow-up that runs itself, a lifetime giving history per donor, one campaign page per drive, and acknowledgments sent the day the gift arrives.
The kehilla, reached in one send.
Yahrzeits, simchas and shiurim handled by the system — and the rav hears about the member who needs a call, not the one who needs an invoice.
Configured in days, not months.
Zero tech-savviness required — we do the setup for you, start to finish: your funds, dues plans, seat sections and forms, built from the way your shul works today. The member list comes to us by secure upload, never by email.
Included with every setup: Live in 3 days* · Free data migration · Parallel run with your current system — ShulCloud or spreadsheets — through September 2027, so you switch only when the treasurer's numbers match · No tech skills needed. *Subject to approval.
No office? Office Assist. Many shuls don't have an office, they have a volunteer with a day job. Office Assist is a trained operator who works only inside your 613OS account, 8 hours a month — entering pledges from the week's appeal, sending statements, following up missing yahrzeit dates, cleaning up household records. Available to pilot accounts now; we walk through its pricing on the demo.
Twenty logins. Twenty bills. Twenty places your data lives. Or one.
A shul today runs on a pile of subscriptions, a dues spreadsheet and a few WhatsApp groups — none of them talking to each other, every one of them billing you.
613OS replaces them. Money back from subscriptions you no longer need — and one login, one bill, one place your data lives.
39 capabilities. One login.
A dues spreadsheet covers collections. A crowdfunding site covers campaigns. A WhatsApp group covers announcements. 613OS covers your whole shul — grouped the way the office actually works, and every tile links to its own page.
Simple pricing. Unlimited members. No per-member fees.
Three plans for every shul — Office, Pro and Enterprise. Unlimited members and households on every plan: the shul pays for the platform, never a per-member fee.
