Inside the work

What XTru looks like inside historic sites.

Historic sites often balance tours, school groups, seasonal events, rentals, memberships, donors, and preservation-focused reporting. Teams need flexible tools without losing the operational discipline of timed experiences.

XTru brings timed tours, admissions, programs, memberships, donation opportunities, guest feedback, and reporting into connected workflows designed for visitor-serving nonprofits.

Challenges

What we hear from historic sites.

Special events and rentals

Sell and manage member events, lectures, seasonal programs, rentals, and special experiences from one platform.

Memberships and benefits

Handle member access, renewals, digital cards, and benefit visibility for households and supporters.

Donation-aware commerce

Offer giving opportunities during checkout and keep donation and transaction data connected to development systems.

Reporting for preservation missions

Give leadership and boards clearer reporting across attendance, programs, memberships, donations, and events.
