Pulpit IQ Trust Charter
This charter defines how we aim to serve churches with humility, fairness, and evidence-based care. Pulpit IQ provides indicators and concerns for review — never final authority.
Our Trust Commitments
-
1) Scripture first
Every analysis is designed to prioritize textual evidence, context, and careful handling of Scripture before tone or style.
-
2) Explainable scoring
Scores are shown with weighted category breakdowns so leaders can see how indicators were formed, not just a single number.
-
3) Core vs secondary doctrine distinction
We aim to separate essential doctrinal alignment concerns from secondary or prudential differences where faithful Christians may disagree.
-
4) Denominational fairness
Optional doctrinal lenses exist to reduce cross-tradition bias and support context-aware review across church backgrounds.
-
5) Human oversight always
Reports are review aids for pastors and leaders. Human discernment, prayer, and pastoral wisdom remain essential.
-
6) AI is never authority
Pulpit IQ does not issue final judgments. It surfaces evidence-based indicators, alignment signals, and potential concerns for discussion.
-
7) Correction humility
We expect imperfect outputs. If a report feels inaccurate or unfair, users can request review so we can improve responsibly.
How we apply this in practice
We prioritize additive, launch-safe improvements that preserve existing workflows while making score logic more transparent. We aim for language that signals indicators and evidence rather than definitive judgments.
Trust work is ongoing. This charter is a living commitment and may be updated as we learn from church leaders and real-world use.
