Every module, one plan

Everything below is built. Nothing below is a roadmap.

SundayBridge is a small church's whole week in one place — and this page is the honest inventory of it. Where a module is a view today rather than something you can add to, it says so on the module. What isn't built at all is listed at the bottom, in plain words.

01

Follow-up

A family visited three Sundays ago. Someone said they'd call. Nobody knows whether anyone did.

A guest becomes a next step with an owner and a date on it — on a board that shows you what nobody has picked up.

  • Every follow-up has one name against it, so it is never everyone's job and therefore no one's
  • The board ages what's open: a step nobody owns doesn't disappear, it gets louder
  • A kanban view for working the week, and an analytics view for asking whether the week worked
  • Guests, absences, baptism questions, and care hand-offs all land in the same place

02

People & households

A name in the directory, a row in the attendance sheet, and a note on somebody's phone are three fragments of one person.

Individuals gathered into the households they actually live in, each with one profile: groups, serving, giving, care, and a readable engagement timeline.

  • Households, not isolated rows — people the way a church already thinks of them
  • One profile per person: their groups, their serving, their attendance, their care
  • An engagement timeline you can read in a glance before you knock on the door
  • Search and filter by role — visitor, member, child, volunteer, staff
  • Import your existing directory from a CSV — a two-step preview that shows exactly what will be created before it writes, with column headers recognized from other church software
  • Export the directory to CSV whenever you want it

03

Attendance

The board asks whether attendance is down. You have a feeling, and a feeling is not an answer.

Record a named roster or a simple headcount, then chart attendance against its own history.

  • Pick a past date and gathering, search the member list, check off who was there, and edit it later
  • Use headcount-only entry when your church does not track individual attendance
  • One good Sunday isn't a trend; one bad one isn't a crisis — the chart shows which
  • A quiet regular's absence surfaces on their profile long before it moves the average
  • Session history you can walk back through

04

Giving records (optional)

If your church keeps contribution records here, they should stay organized without taking over the rest of church operations.

An optional manual contribution ledger with trends, a goal to track against, and printable year-end statements.

  • Record, edit, and remove manual contributions — the records stay yours to correct
  • Set a giving goal and watch the year run against it
  • Giving trends over time, without turning generosity into a leaderboard
  • Year-end giving statements, generated and ready to print

05

Serving teams

The same four people serve every week. Someone who has never been asked would say yes if anyone asked.

Roles, assignments, and who is actually carrying the load — so serving is scheduled instead of assumed.

  • Define serving roles, then assign and reassign people against them
  • See who is serving every week and who has never been invited
  • Background-check alerts surface on the dashboard before they lapse

06

Pastoral care

You promised a widow you would visit. It is now three weeks later and it lives only in your memory.

Care cases with comments and history, kept discreetly alongside the rest of a person's record — so the visit that was promised actually happens.

  • Open a case, add comments as it develops, close it when it's resolved
  • Kept beside the person's profile, not in a separate pastoral silo
  • Private notes stay private — the AI assistant can count cases but never reads their contents

07

Groups

Who is actually in the Tuesday women's group? The answer lives in one person's head.

Small groups, classes, and their membership at a glance instead of across five spreadsheets.

  • Groups with members and leaders, attached to the people record
  • A person's groups show on their profile, and the group's roster shows its people

08

Gatherings

The church calendar is a whiteboard, and who came to the potluck is a memory.

A month calendar with the people attached to each event, so attendance at a gathering becomes part of the record.

  • Create, edit, and remove events on a month calendar you can navigate
  • Registrations tie people to the gatherings they came to

Sunday school

Read-only today

Which children are in which class, with which teacher, in which room?

Classes, teachers, rooms, and enrollment, visible in one place.

  • Enrollment by class, with the teacher and room against it
  • Feeds the Sunday school enrollment report

Reports

Read-only today

The elders want numbers by Thursday and you want to spend Thursday with people.

Twelve reports across every module — charted, pivoted, grouped, and exportable to CSV.

  • Bar, stacked, grouped, line, and donut charts, plus a pivot table with group-by controls
  • Export the pivot or the raw rows to CSV, from any report
  • Congregation, gatherings, serving, care, and giving — every module reports

Ask AI

An assistant that only knows your church.

Ask a question in plain English. The assistant reads the records you already keep and answers from what it finds — 10 questions a month, included in the $19 plan, with no AI add-on to buy.

What it's allowed to read

Six read-only summaries. Not your database — these, and nothing else.

Congregation summary

Head counts by role, household totals, and who is new.

Attendance trend

Weekly attendance across its own history.

Giving summary

Totals and trends — never which individual gave what.

Follow-up status

What's open, what's owed, and how long it has been.

Groups and serving

Membership and assignments across teams.

Care cases

Counts and status only — never the contents of a private note.

Three guarantees

  • It sees your church and no other. Your data is scoped at the database, not asked nicely in a prompt. No tool the assistant can call even has a field for naming a church — so another congregation's records cannot be requested, because they cannot be addressed. Underneath, the query runs as a read-only Postgres role that returns zero rows if the church isn't set. Your question and the selected summaries needed to answer it are sent to our AI provider to generate the response; they are not used to train its models.
  • It never makes a number up. The assistant is forbidden from doing arithmetic. Every figure comes from the same code that draws your dashboard, and for the insight panels any number the model writes that isn't in the allow-list of real figures is thrown away and replaced with a plain template. A wrong number can't reach the page.
  • It says when it doesn't know. If your records don't contain the answer, it tells you which tab would show it rather than guessing. If a report is empty, it says the record is empty. It will not speculate about a family's giving or a person's absence.

Ask AI is switched off in the public demo — the demo church's records aren't yours to ask about. Every answer is stored with the summaries it read, so an elder can audit it later.

Which regulars have quietly stopped coming?

Four people who attended at least twice a month have missed the last three Sundays: Marcus Bell, Priya Nair, and the two adults of the Okafor household. None of them has an open follow-up.

Read attendance trend, congregation summary.

How did giving do this quarter against last year?

Giving this quarter is $71,480 across 138 givers, up 6% on the same quarter last year ($67,410). The giver count is essentially flat — the increase is in average gift, not in more people giving.

Read giving summary.

Is the Alvarez family planning to become members?

Your records don't say. I can see the Alvarez family first visited on July 5 and has attended twice since, but membership intent isn't something SundayBridge stores. The Follow-up tab is where a conversation about it would be recorded.

No tool returned an answer.

AI insights

A plain-language read of what changed, at the top of 12 pages.

You never ask for it — it's there when you open the tab. And the way it's built is the reason you can trust the number in it.

01

Detect

Ordinary deterministic code — no model — finds what's unusual: the follow-up sitting a week, the attendance stretch, the volunteer serving every Sunday.

02

Scrub

Before anything is sent, emails, phone numbers, and birthdates are stripped out. The model never receives them.

03

Narrate

The model writes one short paragraph. It is explicitly forbidden from calculating anything.

04

Check

Every number it wrote is compared against the real figures. Any number that isn't one of them, and the whole paragraph is discarded for a plain template.

Reports & export

Twelve reports, and the CSV under each one.

Chart it, pivot it, group it by whatever you like, then export the pivot or the raw rows. Your people directory exports to CSV too — your records are yours, and they leave in a format anything can read.

On purpose, and honestly

What SundayBridge isn't — yet.

Every church-software page you have read this month claimed everything. Here is the list we'd rather you saw before you paid us, not after.
