ChurchOS · for church staff

Planning Center owns Sunday.ChurchOS owns Monday.

One place where your staff runs its work — projects, requests, meetings, policies, training and the church calendar — so your church never has to buy Asana, Teamwork, Mailchimp, Ninety or a forms tool again.

The tools you keep stay connected. The ones you were paying for to fill the gap fold in.

The gap

Your congregation has a system. Your staff has five.

Church management software is built for the congregation, and the best of it says so: no general ledger, no website builder, no church-wide chat, and — in its own words — no complex project management system. Approvals exist for booking a room and nothing else. There is no policy library, no meeting cadence and no view across ministries.

So churches fill the hole with texting, styled email, a project tool, staff chat and analytics — most of which never write back, so the same person lives in four places. A mid-size church easily spends hundreds to over a thousand dollars a month on that stack before seats and fees, and the cost that hurts more is double entry and reports nobody trusts.

Every competitor fights over the congregation side. Nobody claims the staff-operations layer. That is the room ChurchOS is built for.

Principles

What ChurchOS will and will not do.

Monday, not Sunday
Planning Center already does the congregation well — people, groups, check-ins, worship plans, giving. It says plainly it will not do project management, a ledger or staff operations. ChurchOS takes the side nobody else claims: the work your staff does all week.
Collapse, don't pile on
Most churches fill that gap with three to five extra subscriptions that do not talk to each other. ChurchOS replaces the staff-side tools outright and becomes the one system of record for the work.
Connect what you keep
Your giving platform, your ledger, your office suite and Planning Center stay where they are. ChurchOS reads from them and shows the result in one place, without a second copy of your people.
Your church, not a fork
One product, a church pack on top, and your own switches. The next church gets every improvement the last one paid for, and nobody is stuck on a custom build.
Built on what you preach
The same BibleOS kernel underneath: rhythms, red/yellow/green measures and accountability that answer to stated convictions, so the staff meeting and the sermon are running the same code.

Your stack

Collapse. Connect. Leave alone.

Every tool a church pays for lands in one of three lanes. The walkthrough does this with your actual list.

Collapse

Built in, best in class

The staff-side tools a church can stop paying for.

  • Tasks and projects — Asana, Teamwork, Monday, ClickUp
  • Forms and requests, routed to the right team
  • Meetings and EOS — Ninety, Bloom Growth
  • Policies, SOPs and e-signatures
  • Email campaigns — Mailchimp, Flocknote
  • Staff training, dashboards and a help desk

Connect

Integrated, not replaced

Tools that stay the system of record. ChurchOS reads them.

  • Planning Center — People, Groups, Check-Ins, Services, Registrations, Giving
  • Giving — Pushpay, Tithe.ly, Subsplash
  • Ledger — QuickBooks, Aplos
  • Google Workspace or Microsoft 365
  • Texting, events and background checks
  • Meeting recorders and staff chat

Leave alone

Planning Center's home turf

Congregant-facing products. Rebuilding them creates a second system of record.

  • Worship scheduling
  • Kids check-in kiosks
  • The member app
  • Giving processing
  • Fund accounting
  • Your public website

Church-only

Church modules nobody sells.

Every church runs an annual plan, a preaching calendar, a creative cycle that feeds it, and the care of its people. Church software holds the end result; project tools do not know what a sermon series is. ChurchOS runs the process.

Master calendar & annual planning

One calendar made of layers — preaching, services, events, groups, classes, serve teams, missions, staff and facilities — each with an owner, rules and a deadline.

  • Planned once a year and rolled forward from last year, with holidays, school calendars and the big local weekends already on it
  • Rules the church sets and the system keeps: series dates locked by October, weekend themes set eight weeks out, services in Planning Center a month out
  • An event request goes through approval, lands on the right layer, checks for conflicts and spawns an event project with due dates counted back from the day

Series Planner

A series is a first-class object, not a folder of documents, and the preaching team plans it in the same meeting system the staff already runs on.

  • Title, dates, big idea, scripture, weekly themes and the services it covers
  • Speakers, including guest speakers and their questionnaire
  • Titles pushed into Planning Center Services plans, and each series handed to Creative as a brief

Creative cycle

Every series and major event produces a creative package on a countdown — the church's busiest request queue, finally run like one.

  • Brief, concept, review, production and delivery, each due a set number of weeks before launch
  • Proofing and approvals on the actual graphics, video and print files
  • A Sunday Ready checklist that closes out every week

The pastoral layer

Care and preaching on the same data the staff runs on, so the pastor and the team see one picture of the church.

  • Care Compass: an engagement score for every person from attendance, giving, groups, serving and check-ins, and a care queue showing who is drifting, who needs a follow-up and who owns it
  • Steward: a pastoral assistant that says who to call this week and why, drafts the follow-up and outlines the sermon, working from your church's own data
  • Pulpit Library: every sermon you have preached, searchable and askable, with passage research and drafting help in your own voice
  • Gift Mapping: a spiritual gifts assessment beside Working Genius, matched to real teams and open serving roles
  • Message Studio: short clips cut from each sermon and graphics that match the series, delivered into the creative cycle for review

Running today

What your staff gets on day one.

Built on BusinessOS, the platform we run our own firm on, with the church pack on top: ministry vocabulary, department presets and church meeting rhythms.

projects
Lists, boards with your own stages, subtasks, comments, recurring tasks, templates and a My Work view across every ministry.
requests
Forms that create routed tasks with file uploads and per-form admins — creative, facilities, events, IT.
meetings
Agendas that pull open tasks and measures, recurring series for each team, decisions and action items captured in the meeting.
measures
Department dashboards with red/yellow/green measures fed nightly from Planning Center — attendance, groups, serving, giving trends.
people
Planning Center people on tasks and forms, mirrored by their Planning Center record so nobody is entered twice.
policies
SOPs and policies with e-signature and attestation, so onboarding is a checklist and not a hope.
learning
Courses, assignments and certificates for staff and volunteer training.
team fit
Working Genius on the team and on the work, so the right people end up on the right stage of a project.

The platform

Everything a church staff runs on.

One product with the church pack on top and your own tools switched on — so the work, the calendar and the measures all live in the same place.

  1. Migration

    Move in without a cliff

    Your old task tool is imported whole and synced nightly while teams cut over one at a time, then you cancel it. One-afternoon importers for Teamwork, Asana, Monday, ClickUp, Trello, Basecamp and Notion.

  2. Work management

    Best in class, built for ministry

    Timelines and dependencies, automation rules, approvals and proofing on real files, workload by person, time tracking, and guest access for volunteers and vendors.

  3. Planning Center

    Measures on every department

    Nightly Planning Center measures on every department dashboard, a people mirror so nobody is entered twice, and campaigns sent to your Planning Center lists.

  4. Church rhythms

    Calendar, series, creative

    The master calendar and annual plan, Series Planner pushed into Services, a creative cycle that runs every series to a Sunday Ready finish, and the pastoral layer: Care Compass, Steward, Pulpit Library, Gift Mapping and Message Studio.

  5. Connections

    Everything you keep, in one place

    Budget-to-actual from QuickBooks or Aplos, Pushpay and Tithe.ly, events and ticketing, texting, background-check status, website forms, meeting transcripts, and notifications in Google Chat or Slack.

  6. Your church

    Your tools, no custom build

    Every church starts from the same ChurchOS with its own mix switched on. Self-serve setup, a library of shareable ministry modules and templates, and a mobile app for staff.
