LDS Iron Rod AI · Live at ironrodai.com

The gospel is deep. Now there's a tool built for it.

It doesn't generate opinions. It draws from scripture, official Church sources and prophetic teaching. Every claim verified. Every source linked. Created by a Latter-day Saint who needed this to exist.

Six tools working together behind every answer

This isn't a chatbot with a Bible bolted on. It is a retrieval system built for one corpus and held to it.

Scripture Engine

Word-perfect quotations from all four standard works, with original footnotes. Not paraphrased. Not hallucinated.

Deep Research

Searches General Conference talks, Church magazines, official publications and correlated manuals.

Cross-Reference Search

293,000+ cross-references from official scripture footnotes across 42,000+ verses and 83 years of General Conference.

Handbook Access

Current Church Handbook policies and procedures, so answers reflect how the Church actually operates today.

Church Source Library

Draws exclusively from Church-owned sources. Nothing outside the fold.

LDS TruthLock

Every claim evaluated independently against scripture and official sources, with a text-labeled badge showing exactly where it stands. Every response cryptographically sealed and blockchain-anchored with a public verify code.

Seen in the product

When the answer is wrong, it says so.

An answer named the wrong Church president for the date asked. LDS TruthLock checked official sources, marked it factually inaccurate, cited three sources, and offered to re-verify. The knowledge graph on the right is how cross-references connect verses, talks and topics.

Built on apostolic counsel, by design

God is the source of truth. The Holy Ghost confirms it to you. Prophets declare binding doctrine. We retrieve and verify what they taught, with verified sources, word-perfect scriptures, LDS-only content, tamper-proof records and complete privacy. A study tool, not a companion.

Conversations are private and stored only in your account. They are never used for training. Only a fingerprint is recorded publicly for authenticity verification, never your content.

Iron Rod AI platform

Built for trust at scale.

The infrastructure behind Iron Rod AI: enterprise reliability, configurable AI behavior and cryptographic verification, without a single hardcoded prompt. Available as managed SaaS, a dedicated instance, or on-premise.

Reliability

Three-layer failover across every dependency. Circuit breakers on 17+ services. Proactive health monitoring. Graceful degradation, not silent failure.

Configuration

47 presets, zero hardcoded prompts. Config-as-code with SHA-256 drift detection. Change one preset and see everything affected.

Orchestration

Multi-agent workflows with fallback chains. Not one monolithic prompt. A team.

Verification

TruthLock verification API and proof-of-authenticity API, both patent pending, plus a public lookup that needs no account.

Guardrails

Domain guardrails injected at the infrastructure level, not the prompt level. Content moderation and privacy by default.

Operations

AWS ECS Fargate behind a zero-trust tunnel, TOTP-gated deploys, multi-provider LLM adapters, config-driven model onboarding.
