Let the robots do the busywork.
You do the ministry.
AI is already changing Catholic fundraising. The question is not whether to use it, but how to use it well.
Petrus built Pete, an AI assistant made only for Catholic fundraisers, and The Harbor, a place to learn to use it without losing the human touch that makes your work matter.

THE WORK BEHIND THE WORK
Your day is full. Too much of it is not fundraising.
You make the calls, write the appeals, build the plan, follow up with donors, and keep the mission moving. Often, you are doing it without enough help.
Meanwhile, hours disappear into work such as:
→ Cleaning and reorganizing spreadsheets
→ Updating returned-mail records
→ Drafting every communication from scratch
→ Turning someone else's notes into a usable letter
→ Working through strategy questions alone
The work that raises money is the visit, the call, and the relationship. Everything else should support that work, not crowd it out.
MEET PETE AI
Put Pete to work on the work already waiting
Pete is an AI assistant built specifically for Catholic fundraisers.
Give it your notes, questions, examples, or rough ideas, and use it to move real fundraising work forward.
Prepare for a Donor Meeting
Share what you know about the donor and ask Pete to create a meeting goal, thoughtful questions, talking points, and a follow-up plan.
Turn rough notes into a strong draft
Upload past examples and use Pete to draft appeals, donor emails, thank-you letters, case statements, and scripts in a voice that fits your organization.
Work through a fundraising question
Ask Pete for help planning an appeal, preparing a major gift strategy, organizing a project, or deciding what to do next.
Pete helps you get to a strong first draft faster. You provide the judgment, relationships, and final voice.
OURÂ APPROACH
AI-assisted. Human-led.
Used well, AI can remove repetitive work and give fundraisers more time for discernment, creativity, and relationships.
Pete does not make decisions, contact donors, or replace your judgment. It helps you research, organize, and draft. A qualified person remains responsible for reviewing and approving the final work.
"AI can be a valuable tool, and at the same time it calls for a measured and vigilant approach."
Pope Leo XIV, Magnifica Humanitas
Let the computer support the process so you can remain focused on the person.
BUILTÂ FOR CATHOLIC FUNDRAISING
Not a general chatbot with a cross on it.
Pete was built by Petrus for parishes, dioceses, schools, ministries, and Catholic nonprofits.
Grounded in fundraising experience
Pete draws from Petrus’s fundraising knowledge and practical experience serving Catholic organizations.
Formed by Catholic teaching
Pete operates within Catholic guardrails and draws from trusted Church teaching when responding to questions involving faith and ethics.
Built for ongoing work
Return to previous conversations and projects instead of starting from the beginning each time.
Your donor data stays protected
Pete is governed by strict privacy rules. Sensitive donor information is not entered or used without authorization and proper safeguards, and Pete does not sell or repurpose your data. Its governance is aligned with the Church's growing guidance on AI ethics, including Magnifica Humanitas.
BUILT TO BE TRUSTED
Clear standards for responsible use.
You should be able to explain how your tools are used to your leadership, donors, and community.
A Person Remains Responsible
Pete creates drafts and provides guidance. Your team reviews, edits, and approves the final work.
Clear Ethical Boundaries
Pete will not create fundraising content that contradicts Catholic moral teaching or pretend that AI-generated work came from a human.
You Control Your Information
Only upload information your organization is authorized to use. Pete does not sell your information or use it for unrelated advertising.
Transparent
AI Use
Petrus encourages appropriate disclosure when AI has played a meaningful role in creating published work.
