Quorum · Before you begin
What to have ready.
Two minutes here, ten in the sign-up.
The sign-up asks for the six things below. None of them is required to start, and you can add any of them later from your status page. Send this page to whoever keeps the chapter’s files.
Have on hand
Six things. Each one is optional.
Whatever you have, in whatever shape it is in. We read the columns and place the photos.
-
1
Your old system’s login
The admin login for the system your chapter uses today, used once by us to copy the seasons, the events, the attendance, the member directory and the photos. Or make a temporary admin login and delete it after. An EO chapter needs no login: you press a bookmark on OneEO as you sign up, and it comes over from your own browser.
-
2
The member list
An Excel or CSV file from any system: names, emails, partners, forums, whatever columns you have.
-
3
Last season’s calendar
Excel, CSV or a calendar file. Past events import too, so the history is there on the first day.
-
4
Photo folders
Links to shared folders and albums in Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Photos or iCloud, set to Anyone with the link can view, or a photographer's SmugMug, Pixieset or Pic-Time gallery. A folder named for its event lands on that event. Or drop the folders in.
-
5
The board
Who holds which position this season. It comes over with your old system’s login, or from OneEO. Otherwise a short list: the position and the name.
-
6
Payments
The person who can sign for the chapter, and the bank account dues and event fees should go to. If the chapter has no Stripe account yet, create one at stripe.com.
For the console, not the sign-up
After you sign up
Five steps, and you press the last one.
Your status page shows each step as it happens. Nothing reaches your members until you press Go live.

You press Go live and your members are invited.
What we send you
Two emails. One page in between.
- Email one
We have what you sent.
Once your files are read: what we found in them, file by file and as counts, and the link to your status page. If you sign up before sending anything, it says We have your sign-up and asks for your roster there.
- Your status page
Where your chapter stands.
Each step as it happens, a place to add more files, and a conversation with the person building your chapter. No password; the link is the key.
- Email two
Your console is ready.
Your sign-in, on a computer. The console opens on a setup guide that walks nine pages, about an hour in all, before you go live.
Security
Nobody outside your chapter can read inside it.
Each chapter runs on a system of its own, and private conversations are encrypted on the member’s own device. Each tile opens the drawing of how it works.
- One chapter, one systemYour own server, database and files. Nothing is shared with another chapter.See how
- End-to-end encrypted chatsPrivate conversations are encrypted on the member’s own device. The servers never hold a key.See how
- Passkeys at the doorFace ID or Touch ID signs a member in. A stolen copy of the database cannot be used to sign in as anyone.See how
- Forums the office cannot openA forum’s room opens only to its members. Not the chapter office, and not Quorum.See how
- Card numbers never reach QuorumPayments run on the chapter’s own Stripe account. Quorum never holds your members’ money.See how
- Backed up every nightThe database can be put back to any minute, and a separate copy is kept every night.See how
Ready when you are.
The sign-up takes about ten minutes. The first 30 days are free, and the chapter’s data stays the chapter’s.
