Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the AI-generated lesson compared to what the pastor actually preached?
Our system uses the exact transcript of the sermon video as its source material. It does not invent new theology or pull from external commentaries. It is designed to summarize and structure the specific points, scripture, and application that the pastor delivered on Sunday.
Can I edit the lesson or quiz before sharing it with my congregation?
Currently, the content is generated automatically and served directly to the quiz page to ensure zero manual work for your team. We focus on extremely high accuracy in generation rather than building a complex editing interface.
What AI models power the platform?
We use a combination of industry-leading models, including OpenAI's Whisper for high-fidelity audio transcription, and advanced large language models (like Claude 3.5 Sonnet) specifically prompted for pastoral tone and structural accuracy to generate the lessons and quizzes.
Is the content denomination-neutral?
Yes. Because the AI relies entirely on the transcript of your specific sermon, the resulting lesson and quiz reflect your church's specific theological stance and language. The system is instructed to act as an objective summarizer of the provided text.
How many sermons can we process per month?
There are no hard limits. The system checks your YouTube channel every Tuesday and processes the most recent video published since the last check. Whether you preach once a week or hold multiple distinct services, it's all included in the flat $39/month subscription.
Do you support sermon audio files, or only YouTube videos?
At this time, we only support YouTube channel integration. YouTube is the most reliable, widely-used platform for churches to host their media, and it provides the most stable API for our automated pipeline to monitor.
