Rhema everywhere

Ground your AI in vetted writings on doctrine

Left to itself, an assistant answers questions of faith from whatever the open internet taught it. Connect it to Rhema and it answers from a vetted library instead — curated brethren ministry on Scripture and doctrine, with citations you can check every time it speaks.

Pick your app below. Most connect in one click; the only thing you need is your personal access key, which you enter on the Rhema sign-in page during setup.

The access key

One key, every app

Rhema is a private library, and keys are issued personally. Whichever app you connect, the flow ends at the same Rhema sign-in page — paste your key there and the app stays connected. If you don't have a key, ask the person who invited you to the library.

Connections last 30 days. When an app asks you to sign in again, re-enter the same key.
