Files and documents

"Who owns the budget spreadsheet? And what was the shared password for the club's drive?"

Keep the club's files in one place that belongs to the club. Access to each folder follows a role, an officer position, or a group, so the next treasurer opens the treasurer's files on their first day. Your club can also turn on its own Google shared drive for Docs, Sheets, and Slides. Members don't need a Google account.

  • Folders and uploads for bylaws, minutes, and forms
  • Decide who can view or change each folder, by role, officer position, or group
  • Add the next officer to a position, and the files that come with it move to them
  • Turn on your club's own Google shared drive for Docs, Sheets, and Slides
  • Preview, search, and download several files at once
  • Replace a file and every link to it keeps working
  • Share chosen documents on your public website (Basic)

The assistant

"I don't have time to learn another tool."

Tell the assistant what you need in plain words. It sets the job up in LongTable and waits for your go-ahead before saving anything. The example shows it handling three sample requests.

  • Sets up events, with RSVPs, caps, and slots included
  • Finds who hasn't paid and drafts the reminder
  • Writes the newsletter from your club's calendar
  • Imports your member spreadsheet and shows you the result to check
  • Every action lands in the club history
  • Nothing sends until you say so
  • Included on every plan
  • paid plans get a multiple of the Free plan's allowance

Bring your own AI

"I already use Claude for everything. Can it just do this too?"

Yes. Connect Claude, ChatGPT, or another AI assistant to your club's LongTable and ask it for the same jobs the built-in assistant does. Look up who hasn't paid, set up the potluck, or draft the newsletter. It works from the AI account you already have, on every plan.

  • Works with Claude, ChatGPT, and any assistant that supports MCP
  • Every change it makes lands in the club history, same as any officer
  • Turn it off any time; nothing else about your club changes

What's MCP? Model Context Protocol, an open standard that lets an AI assistant connect to other software. LongTable runs an MCP server for your club, and you add it to your assistant's connections.

  • Optional and included on every plan
  • the built-in assistant above needs no setup at all
