Ten thousand churches have priceless art and zero idea where any of it is or what condition it's in.
PixelParish is a digital provenance and condition-reporting platform built specifically for sacred art collections — the institutions that are absolutely not going to pay for Salesforce but desperately need object-level tracking for their Flemish altarpieces. Every artwork gets a permanent, verified record with high-res imaging, material analysis notes, conservation history, loan agreements, and insurance valuations anchored to a real appraisal chain. Diocese administrators can finally answer the bishop's question of "where is the 1687 reliquary" without calling six different sacristans.
- Permanent object-level records with full provenance chain and condition history
- Supports up to 4,200 concurrent collection records per diocese instance before sharding kicks in
- High-resolution imaging pipeline with IIIF manifest generation and deep zoom tiling
- Direct integration with ArtBase and ChurchSuite for institution-side record reconciliation
- Loan agreement lifecycle tracking with automated expiry alerts. No more lost Madonnas.

PixelParish runs on a microservices architecture with each collection instance containerized independently — diocese data never touches another diocese's stack, full stop. The imaging pipeline is decoupled from the core provenance service and processes ingest jobs asynchronously via a Redis-backed queue that also handles long-term appraisal record storage. Object records are persisted in MongoDB, which handles the nested conservation report schema better than anything relational would without a dozen joins per query. The whole thing runs on Fly.io with edge caching for the IIIF tile servers because loading a 200MB altarpiece scan should not take nine seconds on a parish administrator's laptop.
