2025Sunday tech that doesn’t depend on one volunteer
The result
Average routine fix down from about 25 minutes to about eight.
How it worked
Sunday services ran on a handful of volunteers who understood the streaming computer, audio routing, presentation system and network. When something broke, the fix often interrupted worship or the livestream. We standardized the audiovisual computers, wrote down the operating procedures, and set up monitoring for the network, streaming endpoints, software health and equipment logs. An AI support assistant uses approved technical documentation to walk volunteers through common problems and recovery steps. Critical systems have tested fallbacks. Over a six-month pilot, the average routine fix went from about 25 minutes to about eight. Recovering from a common failure no longer depends on one person.
