01The register
The book everything else answers to.
A parish's registers are the one thing it cannot replace. Biblori keeps all six, reads the old books so the backlog doesn't have to be typed twice, and issues certificates drawn from the entry itself.
Find and claim your parish →All six registers
Baptism, first communion, confirmation, marriage, funeral, and reception into full communion — each its own book, as the canons expect.
Certificates
Print-ready and drawn from the entry itself, reproducing its marginal notations — not a mail-merge of a Word template.
Register scanner
Photograph a page of the old book and the fields come back filled in, flagged where the handwriting was uncertain, ready for you to check.
Search that forgives
By name, by year, or by a godparent you half-remember. Accents and misspellings included, across every parish you can see.
Erasure is not a correction.
Diocesan records handbooks differ on the details and agree on the substance: a correction is made by notation rather than by rubbing something out, and a certificate is worth only as much as the trail behind it. Biblori enforces that in the database — not in a policy document nobody reads on a Friday afternoon.

Amendments
August 12, 2026 · m.torres@stcecilia.org — sponsor's full name from the baptismal certificate she presented
- sponsor 1: Ana Delgado → Ana María Delgado Ruiz
- birth place: Dallas → Dallas, Texas
The margin, kept in order
What happened to her after the baptism, written beneath it, oldest first. Nothing here can be edited or removed — only added to.
- ConfirmationMay 24, 2015Confirmed at the Cathedral of St. Mary. Conf. reg. vol. III, no. 412.
- MarriageOctober 3, 2021Married to Daniel J. Reyes at St. Joseph, Plano. Marr. reg. vol. II, no. 94.
The amendment and its trail were one database transaction. Had the trail failed to write, the sponsor's name would still read “Ana Delgado”.
- 01
Corrections by notation, never erasure
A mistake is answered by adding to the record, not editing it away. Notations are append-only in the database — nothing rewrites one after the fact.
Canon 535 §2 - 02
No edit without its trail
Amending an entry and recording the amendment are one transaction. If the trail can't be written, the edit doesn't happen.
- 03
Notations travel with the certificate
Confirmation, marriage, and the rest print on every baptismal certificate. Where there's nothing to note, it says so — rather than leaving a marriage-prep office guessing.
Canon 535 §2 - 04
Issuing is itself a recorded act
Who asked, their relationship to the person named, how identity was established, and who issued it. Entered at the desk, kept with the record.
- 05
The register never leaves the parish that holds it
A parish needing a reference receives an attestation drawn from the entry — never a copy of your book. Neither parish reads the other's register.
02What feeds it
Nothing gets typed twice.
Sacraments are prepared somewhere before they are celebrated. Biblori runs that preparation and inscribes the result, so the register fills from the work you were already doing — built for the staff who actually answer the phone, not for a forms engine.
- 01
Marriage preparation
Prenuptial inquiry, witness affidavits, and document chase run end-to-end, then the marriage lands in the register as a record rather than a retyped form. Already powering Agape Wedding.
- 02
A team inbox
Couple inquiries, parishioner record requests, and diocesan asks arrive in one place, with reminders when something has been sitting too long — no more “check with Margaret”.

03Faith formation
The half of the parish that isn't paperwork.
First communion, confirmation, OCIA, baptism prep — the largest thing most parishes run, and the least served by software: a spreadsheet of children, a folder of certificates, and a coordinator who remembers who still owes a sponsor. Biblori lays out the term, takes the roll, reads each candidate's prior sacraments from your own register, and hands every completion back to it as an entry to inscribe.
Families register from your parish website and follow along from their own portal — schedule, attendance, and whatever you are still waiting on — so “when is the retreat?” stops arriving by phone.

04The parish's public face
The website your parish has been meaning to fix since 2011.
Pick a design, and the Mass times, sacraments, staff, and bulletins you already keep in Biblori become a real public site — on your own domain, in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, with an events calendar visitors can subscribe to. No webmaster, no annual redesign.
See the designs →HeritageSt. Brigid Catholic Church — Fairview, OH
Traditional and ecclesial — serif headings, warm tones, ornamental details. Feels like a parish that has stood for a century.
See the live site ↗LumenHoly Trinity Catholic Church — Riverbend, COModern and luminous — clean sans-serif type, generous whitespace, crisp cards. A contemporary face for an active parish.
See the live site ↗VitrailSt. Cecilia Catholic Church — Northgate, ILLight through stained glass — jewel tones on deep indigo, frosted panes, luminous serif type. Dramatic and prayerful after dark.
See the live site ↗CasaMisión San Miguel — Río Verde, NMA mission courtyard in the afternoon sun — adobe warmth, hand-made edges, arches and tilework. Feels like coming home.
See the live site ↗05The chancery view
One license. Every parish in your diocese.
Diocesan licensing means your parishes don't pay per seat, your chancery sees consistent data across every pastor, and your tribunal can find a marriage case without a phone tree.

Before you say yes
The questions a chancery asks before it signs.
The people responsible for a register are right to ask hard questions first. These are the ones we hear most, answered in terms you can check.
- Where does the data live?
- In a Postgres database on Supabase, in a United States region, encrypted at rest and in transit by the provider. The application runs on Vercel. Card and bank details go to Stripe directly and never pass through Biblori.
- Who can see a register?
- Members of that parish, and the diocese for the parishes it oversees. Every table is under row-level security, so the database decides on every query — not the app. Another parish asking about a baptism receives an attestation drawn from the entry, never the book.
- Can an entry be altered?
- Not silently. Notations and amendments are append-only in the database — there is no update or delete rule for them that any privilege could use — and amending an entry writes its trail in the same transaction. A register entry is never hard-deleted.
- What happens if we stop paying, or leave?
- Your register and the certificates issued from it are never withheld over a bill; the software has no mechanism to do it. Export your records at any time, including after you cancel. A lapsed subscription pauses the website and the scanner, nothing else.
- What about the scanner, and the AI behind it?
- Optional, and a parish that never uses it loses nothing else. Photographs of register pages sit in a private bucket only staff who can write records may open, unsaved ones are deleted within a day, and the model provider is named in the privacy notice.
- Who audits the infrastructure?
- The database and file storage run on Supabase and the application on Vercel, each of which holds its own SOC 2 Type II report, and payments run through Stripe, a PCI DSS Level 1 service provider. Their reports are available to a diocese doing vendor review; ask and we will pass them along.
