She’s smarter, sharper, and more spiritually grounded than ever. This new version of the AI-powered digital companion TryTank created has access to the Episcopal News Service archives, EPN webinars, and even more church-specific content. Think of her as AI—but with a prayer book in hand.
Since launching the original Ask Cathy, we’ve learned a lot. Most importantly, church leaders want tools that are not just innovative but deeply faithful. Cathy is being shaped by what you told us: she now offers better pastoral care suggestions, improved theological nuance, and contextual awareness. She’s not just giving answers—she’s learning how to serve.
Behind it all is TryTank’s commitment to innovation with purpose. We’re doing the hard work of testing, refining, and listening—because the Church deserves tools built for its unique mission.
And yes—you can now add Cathy right to your church’s website like Grace Church in Yukon, OK has done. She’s like your friendly parish AI-in-residence.
Want to see Ask Cathy 3.0 in action? Join us for a live digital demo with the Episcopal Parish Network on June 23 at 3 pm ET. Register here.
The Church is changing. So is Cathy. And this is just the beginning.
