Who we are

We are a team that is committed to doing something beyond ourselves. We aren't satisfied with just building software; we want to make something that matters, and we want to enjoy the process. Because of this, Aplos has attracted individuals who are experts in their fields, enjoy a challenge, know the world can be better, and believe they can do their part to help make it happen.

Aplos started in 2009, after our founder, Tim Goetz, couldn't find a simple, affordable fund accounting software for his church, where he served as the executive pastor. He surrounded himself with a team to build the software he knew would be life changing for the organizations that used it.

Many of our staff come from nonprofit and church backgrounds, so we appreciate the labor that goes into their missions, and we love that Aplos can positively impact the missions of nonprofits and churches around the world.

Our staff values

Own the Mission

We own the mission, fully owning our work, its impact, and our growth. Integrity drives us to advocate, act, and be accountable to the communities we serve.

Momentum is Magic

Momentum isn’t just how we move - it’s who we are. We’re wired to act fast, think clearly, and build with conviction, because when we’re aligned on where we’re going, there’s nothing that can slow us down.

The Human Pulse

Every solution we build, every system we touch, is measured by its real impact on people.

Lift As We Climb

We commit to a collective climb. Our growth directly translates to lifting up our teammates and amplifying our customers' impact, ensuring every step forward creates shared success.

Wired to Wonder

We love to nerd out. We ask why, challenge assumptions, and are always learning—about our craft, our customers, and ourselves. We dream big, letting our curiosity lead us to innovative solutions and ambitious possibilities.
