Built From a Historic Society's Real Work

Meet the Creator

Hi, I'm Jason Byrne. I'm the President of the Longwood Historic Society and have been the race director for local 5Ks for many years. That work spans member records, sponsorships, public events, volunteers, payments, files, and follow-up that can easily get scattered across too many tools.

For years, I was doing a lot of heavy lifting in spreadsheets, email threads, payment tools, shared drives, and memory. I looked for better software, but most options felt too broad, too expensive, or too staff-oriented for a small volunteer-led organization.

So I'm building Memml around the work Longwood actually needs first, then generalizing carefully for other historic societies, heritage nonprofits, and friendly partner organizations. It is meant to be practical operations software, not a generic enterprise CRM and not a museum collections system.

The business angle is real, but it is not the point that started this. Memml is a passion project before it is a product: I built it for me, because I needed it, and if it helps your organization spend less time untangling admin work, even better.
