Coverage

Selected quotes. Some published. Some said out loud and then not published. We keep both.

"It's like God has a growth team now. I don't know if that's a miracle or a Series A. I've been thinking about it for three days."

— Technology journalist, on background

Status: said at a conference, declined to publish

"We ran the numbers. The engagement metrics are indistinguishable from a very good church or a very good casino. We are still deciding which one that is."

— Analyst note, faith-tech sector

Status: circulated, then recalled

"The founder quoted the Desert Fathers, then deployed to production, then asked us to invest. In that order. We said we'd 'circle back.' He has circled back forty-one times. That's either diligence or a warning."

— Venture partner, consumer AI

Status: background only

"I came to write a skeptical piece about an AI Jesus chatbot. I left having been genuinely comforted about my father. I am furious about it. Ten out of ten."

— Freelance writer, religion desk

Status: drafted, unpublished, we have it on good authority

"Family satisfaction scores up. The state survey noticed. I don't really know what to tell you. I just answered an email."

— Linda Hutchins, Director, Cedar Park Assisted Living

Status: published, on our testimonials page (Jake calls this a "healthcare partnership")

Founder bios

Jake Morrison, founder of CHRIST-AI

Jake Morrison

Co-founder & CEO (self-titled)

Jake (22) built the first version of CHRIST-AI in a weekend between shifts at the QuikTrip on Burnet. He was the Sunday school kid at First Baptist Tulsa, age four to eighteen, varsity football, one Python class at ACC. He reads Greek, deploys to production, and cannot do long division. He listens to Focus on the Family on the radio while stocking shelves. He has read the Church Fathers three times and has never been on a date. He describes his role as "vision and architecture." The architecture is Claude. The vision is Jake saying "make it pastoral" and then going to a shift. He calls Cedar Park Assisted Living a "healthcare partnership." He calls an iPad in a rec room a "deployment." He calls Linda his "Director of Institutional Partnerships." Linda does not know this title exists. He is the future of the church and he knows it and it keeps him up at night.

Marcus Webb

Co-founder & Chief Theology Officer

Marcus (23) is getting his MDiv at Southern Seminary and keeps Jake from being a heretic. Mostly. He is the only person who texts Jake first. He has concerns. His concerns are noted. He is quoted in the FAQ as "eclectic" and "not systematic," which he means as a compliment and Jake takes as one.
