See where your members' energy goes
In short
Hineni gives staff a view of volunteering from the first scan to a sign-up, including which roles and skills drew the most interest. Staff can export volunteer records to an Excel workbook in one step, and every download is logged. Counts are of distinct people, and each number opens to the records behind it.

What can staff see about a volunteer season?
Staff can see how many people scanned each code, how many completed a sign-up and which roles and skills drew the most interest.
Because each table, program or flyer has its own code, the numbers show where interest began. A volunteer fair table that drew many scans and few sign-ups points to a role description worth rewriting. Staff can export the underlying records to Excel at any time, for a board report, a thank-you list or a Volunteer Shabbat blessing.
How does Hineni count people and interests?
The overview counts distinct people and lets staff open any number to the records behind it.
A member who signs up for three roles counts once as a person and three times as an interest, and the overview keeps those apart. Outcomes that are still unknown appear separately, so a gap in follow-up stays visible in the total. Lay leaders export only their own lists, staff can export everything, and every export is logged.
Why does Hineni leave reply speed out of its reports?
Hineni measures whether members were answered, and it leaves out how fast, because the product makes no reply-time promise to members.
Hineni's design leaves out response-time charts and countdown clocks. Temple Beth El of Boca Raton decided in October 2026 to drop member-facing response times, and the reports follow that decision. Each follow-up carries an owner and an outcome, and the report shows who has been reached.
Questions about reporting
Yes. Staff can export volunteer interests, requests and follow-up records to an Excel workbook in one step. Every export is logged with who downloaded it and when.
Hineni reports how many people scanned a code, how many completed a sign-up, which roles and groups drew the most interest and which skills members offered. Counts are of distinct people, and each number opens to the records behind it.
