Features

Everything you need to follow up with people, and nothing you don’t.

Follow-up is the heart of it. Volunteers and People feed it, and Guests are next. All of it is in every plan.

Your follow-ups: overdue, due today and coming up.Demo data

Follow-ups

One list of who needs a call from you: overdue, due today, coming up and done today, each with the right next step.

One record per person: details, Member Status and “member since”, what’s happened with them, and who can sign in. Import a spreadsheet and export everyone any time.

About People

Guests Coming soon

Follow up with first-time guests using the same people records and Follow-ups list. It will be included in your plan when it’s ready; there’s no date yet.

About Guests

Messages Planned

After Guests: a simple way to email or text your whole church, a ministry or team, your Members, recent guests or a list. Replies and “please call me” land on Follow-ups. Included in your plan when it’s ready; no date yet.

About Messages

Built for real life

For volunteers and staff who aren’t “computer people”, and are usually on a phone.

Nothing to build

No forms to design, workflows to draw or automations to connect. Answer a few questions and you’re ready.

Works on any phone

A phone-friendly website. Add it to your home screen for one-tap access; no app store needed.

No passwords

Sign in with a link sent by email or text. Nothing to remember, nothing to reset.

Email and texts for leaders

Leaders hear about new follow-ups and reminders the way they prefer.

Help inside the app

37 Help articles with pictures, right where you need them, and support by request.

Your data is yours

Export your people as a spreadsheet any time. We never sell your data.
