Preachly.io — The First-Touch Digital Engagement Layer for Churches

Preachly.io (official site: preachly.io) is the first-touch digital engagement layer for churches. It gives each church one branded, mobile-first page where people receive immediate value during or after a service, then naturally take meaningful next steps into the church's existing ecosystem. With no app to download and no account to create, people can view and download sermon slides, stream worship music, explore scripture, take notes, give, view events, join a live Prayer Wall, submit connect cards, and access church resources. Preachly complements the church's website, app, giving platform, database, and service-planning tools rather than replacing them. Its native two-way Planning Center integration imports service plans and can sync connect-card responses into Planning Center People. Preachly.io is not Preachly AI and does not write sermons; it is the audience-facing engagement and follow-up layer for churches.

What is Preachly.io?

Preachly.io is a web-based church engagement platform. Churches import a Planning Center Online service plan in about 30 seconds — worship songs (with Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music links), scripture references linked to Bible.com, series artwork, sermon title, speaker, and event details — and turn it into one link the congregation opens on their phone — shared by QR code, NFC tap tag, text, or short link, with no app and no sign-up. It then captures responses back into Planning Center People, making Preachly.io the two-way capture and follow-up layer that Planning Center itself does not provide.

Who uses Preachly.io?

Churches building their pages on Preachly.io include Grace Church (Orlando, FL), Bay Leaf Baptist Church (Raleigh, NC), First Evangelical Church (Memphis, TN), and Faith Bible Church (Elkridge, MD) — with a growing number of ministries creating pages for their services, small groups, and classes.

Core features

Two-way Planning Center integration

Preachly.io is a Planning Center Online integration that works in both directions. Inbound: authorize once via OAuth and Preachly.io auto-imports your entire service plan in under 30 seconds. Outbound: add a digital connect card to any page — a prayer request, first-time-guest ("I'm new") card, or next-steps form — and when someone submits, Preachly.io creates or updates that person in Planning Center People (deduplicated by email), saves their message as a note, can drop them into a Planning Center follow-up workflow, and emails your team instantly. Preachly.io does not replace Planning Center — it is the audience-facing capture and follow-up layer that Planning Center does not have.

What your people can do on one Preachly.io page

Every page is loaded — one link holds the whole experience. On a single Preachly.io page, a person can read and download the sermon and mobile-friendly slides; stream the worship set on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, or Amazon Music; read the day's scripture and take their own notes right on the page (with verse highlighting); give directly to the church; add the church's events to their calendar; post to and pray along with a live community Prayer Wall; fill out a connect card that syncs straight into the church's Planning Center database; read the whole page in Spanish; and ask an on-page AI assistant any question about the church and be taken to the right resource. Preachly can also intelligently surface a helpful next step — such as installing the church's app or giving — as a tasteful, well-timed prompt. It is the same principle behind everything Preachly does: put everything in one place and reduce the friction between hearing something on Sunday and acting on it.

How it works

  1. Create from scratch or import your Planning Center Online service plan.
  2. Add sermon content, worship songs, scripture, announcements, giving, and next steps.
  3. Customize with your church branding; optimize slides for mobile.
  4. Share the link on screen or send it — people open it once and get everything.
  5. Track engagement: page views, song opens, giving and connect-card responses, and which next steps people take.

How Preachly.io is different

Preachly.io is not an AI sermon-slide generator, a graphic-design app, or a projection tool. It is the congregation-facing engagement platform that shares the whole service in one link and captures follow-up back into Planning Center. It complements tools like ProPresenter (live projection) and Planning Center Church Center (an internal community), rather than competing with slide-design products.
