Top Free & Paid AI Tools for Churches

Hundreds of new AI tools are launching Hundreds of new AI tools are launching every single day, maybe even thousands. every single day, maybe even thousands. every single day, maybe even thousands. Most of them cost money, but we found Most of them cost money, but we found Most of them cost money, but we found the ones for you that are completely the ones for you that are completely the ones for you that are completely free. And we're not just talking about free. And we're not just talking about free. And we're not just talking about chat, GPT, Canva, things like that. We chat, GPT, Canva, things like that. We chat, GPT, Canva, things like that. We tracked down a number of tools that tracked down a number of tools that tracked down a number of tools that churches are unaware of and tasks that churches are unaware of and tasks that churches are unaware of and tasks that churches have probably never even churches have probably never even churches have probably never even considered using. Let's dive in. considered using. Let's dive in. considered using. Let's dive in. >> Well, hey there and welcome to the >> Well, hey there and welcome to the >> Well, hey there and welcome to the ProChurch Tool Show. We're here to help ProChurch Tool Show.

You'd never >> is called Turbo Scribe. You'd never guess what it does. guess what it does. guess what it does. So, this is okay. AI transcription with So, this is okay. AI transcription with So, this is okay. AI transcription with speaker detection. Now, there are a speaker detection. Now, there are a speaker detection. Now, there are a myriad of tools like this. And the myriad of tools like this. And the myriad of tools like this. And the reason that we're starting off with this reason that we're starting off with this reason that we're starting off with this tool is because in my experience working tool is because in my experience working tool is because in my experience working with these AI tools, everything is going with these AI tools, everything is going with these AI tools, everything is going to come down to what text can I give to come down to what text can I give to come down to what text can I give this tool. this tool. this tool. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> And in church, what happens then is that >> And in church, what happens then is that >> And in church, what happens then is that the bottleneck becomes, can we get the bottleneck becomes, can we get the bottleneck becomes, can we get transcriptions on all the text that we transcriptions on all the text that we transcriptions on all the text that we have? And in the church context, most of have? And in the church context, most of have? And in the church context, most of that text is going to be delivered from that text is going to be delivered from that text is going to be delivered from stage. And for whatever reason, we're stage. And for whatever reason, we're stage. And for whatever reason, we're still like having some issues, I've still like having some issues, I've still like having some issues, I've noticed, like reliably transcribing noticed, like reliably transcribing noticed, like reliably transcribing things. And so what's great about this things. And so what's great about this things. And so what's great about this tool is that it is free and it gives you tool is that it is free and it gives you tool is that it is free and it gives you three free files per day at unlimited three free files per day at unlimited three free files per day at unlimited length.

length. length. >> That's enough. >> That's enough. >> That's enough. >> Yeah. I think for most churches for like >> Yeah. I think for most churches for like >> Yeah. I think for most churches for like what you're trying to do, that's going what you're trying to do, that's going what you're trying to do, that's going to fall into to fall into to fall into >> unless you're trying to do all your work >> unless you're trying to do all your work >> unless you're trying to do all your work in one day, in one day, in one day, >> right? You do. Yeah. You have to spread >> right? You do. Yeah. You have to spread >> right? You do. Yeah. You have to spread it out or pay, of course, right? With it out or pay, of course, right? With it out or pay, of course, right? With all these tools. So what are we using all these tools. So what are we using all these tools. So what are we using this for? Transcription for this for? Transcription for this for? Transcription for >> sermons, obviously. which then can be >> sermons, obviously. which then can be >> sermons, obviously. which then can be turned into any number of things which turned into any number of things which turned into any number of things which we'll get to. What's nice about this is we'll get to. What's nice about this is we'll get to. What's nice about this is that it can handle multiple speakers and that it can handle multiple speakers and that it can handle multiple speakers and identify who's talking. So if your identify who's talking. So if your identify who's talking. So if your church has a podcast, it could also be church has a podcast, it could also be church has a podcast, it could also be used in that way. used in that way. used in that way. >> Turboscribe. The second tool is called >> Turboscribe. The second tool is called >> Turboscribe. The second tool is called TL Semicolon DV which is a play on the TL Semicolon DV which is a play on the TL Semicolon DV which is a play on the TLDDR which is too long don't read. This TLDDR which is too long don't read. This TLDDR which is too long don't read. This is TLDV. is TLDV. is TLDV. And what this does is it also creates And what this does is it also creates And what this does is it also creates transcriptions for meetings. transcriptions for meetings. transcriptions for meetings. >> Okay, so this is another time when >> Okay, so this is another time when >> Okay, so this is another time when things are happening where it would be things are happening where it would be things are happening where it would be really useful to have transcriptions to really useful to have transcriptions to really useful to have transcriptions to then format that data into actionable then format that data into actionable then format that data into actionable steps and information. The free tier steps and information. The free tier steps and information. The free tier offers you unlimited recordings and offers you unlimited recordings and offers you unlimited recordings and transcripts. So for a church use like transcripts. So for a church use like transcripts. So for a church use like you can never miss what was decided in you can never miss what was decided in you can never miss what was decided in meetings. You know, I started using this meetings. You know, I started using this meetings. You know, I started using this on um coaching calls with churches and on um coaching calls with churches and on um coaching calls with churches and instead of having to make like my own instead of having to make like my own instead of having to make like my own notes for the coaching call, I found it notes for the coaching call, I found it notes for the coaching call, I found it tremendously useful to just use the AI tremendously useful to just use the AI tremendously useful to just use the AI summaries and then when we got on the summaries and then when we got on the summaries and then when we got on the next coaching call in like 90 days, I next coaching call in like 90 days, I next coaching call in like 90 days, I had that reminder right there and it was had that reminder right there and it was had that reminder right there and it was so they were so much better than my own so they were so much better than my own so they were so much better than my own notes.

notes. notes. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> Now, these are the two free tools that >> Now, these are the two free tools that >> Now, these are the two free tools that we wanted to establish as foundational we wanted to establish as foundational we wanted to establish as foundational for what comes next. Because this is for what comes next. Because this is for what comes next. Because this is where I'm going to be really honest, where I'm going to be really honest, where I'm going to be really honest, everyone, okay? As I was fleshing out everyone, okay? As I was fleshing out everyone, okay? As I was fleshing out this episode, I had like 20 tools and this episode, I had like 20 tools and this episode, I had like 20 tools and these were kind of like the first two. these were kind of like the first two. these were kind of like the first two. And then I was like, "Yeah, but I would And then I was like, "Yeah, but I would And then I was like, "Yeah, but I would never use any of these other 18 tools never use any of these other 18 tools never use any of these other 18 tools because I would just end up using this because I would just end up using this because I would just end up using this one tool." This one tool, as of this one tool." This one tool, as of this one tool." This one tool, as of this recording, because of how quickly things recording, because of how quickly things recording, because of how quickly things change, is not free. The angle that I change, is not free. The angle that I change, is not free. The angle that I want to take on it is that if your staff want to take on it is that if your staff want to take on it is that if your staff time is worth, let's say, $25 an hour or time is worth, let's say, $25 an hour or time is worth, let's say, $25 an hour or whatever it must be. whatever it must be. whatever it must be. >> Sure. >> Sure. >> Sure. >> Then how many hours do you need to save >> Then how many hours do you need to save >> Then how many hours do you need to save per month to justify this subscription, per month to justify this subscription, per month to justify this subscription, >> right? It's like the question is no >> right? It's like the question is no >> right? It's like the question is no longer, you know, what free like longer, you know, what free like longer, you know, what free like limiting yourself to only free tools so limiting yourself to only free tools so limiting yourself to only free tools so that doesn't come at a cost to you or to that doesn't come at a cost to you or to that doesn't come at a cost to you or to your church. It's okay. Hold on. If we your church. It's okay. Hold on. If we your church. It's okay. Hold on. If we pay for a tool, what do we actually pay for a tool, what do we actually pay for a tool, what do we actually recoup in in cost that's already recoup in in cost that's already recoup in in cost that's already committed, which is hourly wages or what committed, which is hourly wages or what committed, which is hourly wages or what have you, have you, have you, >> right? So, the tool is Claude Co-work, >> right? So, the tool is Claude Co-work, >> right? So, the tool is Claude Co-work, which as of this recording is just a which as of this recording is just a which as of this recording is just a couple of weeks old.

couple of weeks old. couple of weeks old. >> And essentially, Claude Co-work is a >> And essentially, Claude Co-work is a >> And essentially, Claude Co-work is a highly intelligent series of agents that highly intelligent series of agents that highly intelligent series of agents that can complete entire tasks for you and can complete entire tasks for you and can complete entire tasks for you and can access specific parts of your can access specific parts of your can access specific parts of your computer that you give it access to. computer that you give it access to. computer that you give it access to. Now, I have found that with these tools, Now, I have found that with these tools, Now, I have found that with these tools, because they're so brand new, what because they're so brand new, what because they're so brand new, what happens is we have a limit of happens is we have a limit of happens is we have a limit of imagination on what can actually be done imagination on what can actually be done imagination on what can actually be done with them. So, you start using it and with them. So, you start using it and with them. So, you start using it and the more that you use it, you're like, the more that you use it, you're like, the more that you use it, you're like, "Oh, I wonder if I could do this and "Oh, I wonder if I could do this and "Oh, I wonder if I could do this and this." And then very quickly as you this." And then very quickly as you this." And then very quickly as you actually become like a practitioner with actually become like a practitioner with actually become like a practitioner with these tools, you realize how capable and these tools, you realize how capable and these tools, you realize how capable and useful that they are. If you haven't useful that they are. If you haven't useful that they are. If you haven't used them, I think you're like, you just used them, I think you're like, you just used them, I think you're like, you just heard what I said and you go, I don't heard what I said and you go, I don't heard what I said and you go, I don't know what that means. It does not at all know what that means. It does not at all know what that means. It does not at all sound useful. It kind kind of sounds sound useful. It kind kind of sounds sound useful. It kind kind of sounds weird, weird, weird, >> right? It's like, I don't need to vibe >> right? It's like, I don't need to vibe >> right? It's like, I don't need to vibe co an app for my church. co an app for my church. co an app for my church. And I also don't need to vibe code an And I also don't need to vibe code an And I also don't need to vibe code an app. And so I want to lay out one two. app. And so I want to lay out one two. app. And so I want to lay out one two. I'm not going to count them all up. I'm not going to count them all up. I'm not going to count them all up. There are a lot of very practical use There are a lot of very practical use There are a lot of very practical use cases that you can use this tool for. In cases that you can use this tool for. In cases that you can use this tool for. In terms of cost, it's like, you know, terms of cost, it's like, you know, terms of cost, it's like, you know, right now like $200 a month. So if we right now like $200 a month. So if we right now like $200 a month. So if we quantify staff time at like $25 an hour, quantify staff time at like $25 an hour, quantify staff time at like $25 an hour, if all it did was save you like 8 hours if all it did was save you like 8 hours if all it did was save you like 8 hours a month, it would pay for itself, right?

a month, it would pay for itself, right? a month, it would pay for itself, right? I'm thinking as I lay out all of these I'm thinking as I lay out all of these I'm thinking as I lay out all of these things could probably save you between things could probably save you between things could probably save you between 20 and 40 hours a month, which would 20 and 40 hours a month, which would 20 and 40 hours a month, which would more than justify the cost of the more than justify the cost of the more than justify the cost of the subscription subscription subscription >> and probably in the way of reclaiming >> and probably in the way of reclaiming >> and probably in the way of reclaiming time that's already spent. time that's already spent. time that's already spent. >> Yes. >> Yes. >> Yes. >> And then you can allocate >> And then you can allocate >> And then you can allocate >> human time to maybe some more like >> human time to maybe some more like >> human time to maybe some more like higher quality tasks. Yes. higher quality tasks. Yes. higher quality tasks. Yes. >> And also it's going to enable you maybe >> And also it's going to enable you maybe >> And also it's going to enable you maybe to do some things that you haven't to do some things that you haven't to do some things that you haven't already been doing. already been doing. already been doing. >> Correct. And I think that this is >> Correct. And I think that this is >> Correct. And I think that this is probably the future of creative work and probably the future of creative work and probably the future of creative work and all work, which is it's not going to all work, which is it's not going to all work, which is it's not going to come down to like what you know or what come down to like what you know or what come down to like what you know or what you're even capable of per se in terms you're even capable of per se in terms you're even capable of per se in terms of like a specific like skill. A lot of of like a specific like skill. A lot of of like a specific like skill. A lot of it is going to be you have all these it is going to be you have all these it is going to be you have all these tools at your disposal. How are you able tools at your disposal. How are you able tools at your disposal. How are you able to deploy these tools to accomplish your to deploy these tools to accomplish your to deploy these tools to accomplish your tasks? And so like all of us are going tasks? And so like all of us are going tasks? And so like all of us are going to be stepping into roles of like almost to be stepping into roles of like almost to be stepping into roles of like almost more management and less like actually more management and less like actually more management and less like actually doing the thing. There are some things doing the thing. There are some things doing the thing. There are some things that we will continue to do the thing that we will continue to do the thing that we will continue to do the thing because we want to do the thing or because we want to do the thing or because we want to do the thing or because it's better to do the thing, but because it's better to do the thing, but because it's better to do the thing, but more and more it's going to be okay. Is more and more it's going to be okay. Is more and more it's going to be okay. Is this a task I should be doing this a task I should be doing this a task I should be doing >> or is this a task that I can deploy >> or is this a task that I can deploy >> or is this a task that I can deploy >> an AI tool to do which then allows me to >> an AI tool to do which then allows me to >> an AI tool to do which then allows me to do a higher level task.

do a higher level task. do a higher level task. >> Can I bring a brief analogy to the >> Can I bring a brief analogy to the >> Can I bring a brief analogy to the table? table? table? >> You may. >> You may. >> You may. >> Uh for anyone who's been listening to >> Uh for anyone who's been listening to >> Uh for anyone who's been listening to this show for any amount of time or this show for any amount of time or this show for any amount of time or follows me on the personal side of the follows me on the personal side of the follows me on the personal side of the internet, they will know that I am uh an internet, they will know that I am uh an internet, they will know that I am uh an afficionado of specialty coffee. And afficionado of specialty coffee. And afficionado of specialty coffee. And there was a time when I was brewing all there was a time when I was brewing all there was a time when I was brewing all of my coffee by hand. of my coffee by hand. of my coffee by hand. >> But now you have a series of robots. >> But now you have a series of robots. >> But now you have a series of robots. >> Well, not only enjoying brewing coffee >> Well, not only enjoying brewing coffee >> Well, not only enjoying brewing coffee by hand, but taking pride in it. There's by hand, but taking pride in it. There's by hand, but taking pride in it. There's a lot of skill uh involved similar to a lot of skill uh involved similar to a lot of skill uh involved similar to like um you know preparing for example a like um you know preparing for example a like um you know preparing for example a roast in a in a cast iron Dutch oven roast in a in a cast iron Dutch oven roast in a in a cast iron Dutch oven compared to an Instant Pot. Like there's compared to an Instant Pot. Like there's compared to an Instant Pot. Like there's a whole lot of skill involved in the a whole lot of skill involved in the a whole lot of skill involved in the fully um you know handmade version fully um you know handmade version fully um you know handmade version compared to the Instant Pot version. But compared to the Instant Pot version. But compared to the Instant Pot version. But they can get you maybe to similar they can get you maybe to similar they can get you maybe to similar destinations. And I took a lot of pride destinations. And I took a lot of pride destinations. And I took a lot of pride in making coffee by hand. in making coffee by hand. in making coffee by hand. So, we went from being foster parents to So, we went from being foster parents to So, we went from being foster parents to then and having kids in our home to then then and having kids in our home to then then and having kids in our home to then having a child of our own plus foster having a child of our own plus foster having a child of our own plus foster kids, now having two children of our kids, now having two children of our kids, now having two children of our own, foster kids, uh me and my wife both own, foster kids, uh me and my wife both own, foster kids, uh me and my wife both work. All of that to say, I have a lot work. All of that to say, I have a lot work. All of that to say, I have a lot less margin now than I used to for less margin now than I used to for less margin now than I used to for brewing coffee by hand. And I'll tell brewing coffee by hand. And I'll tell brewing coffee by hand. And I'll tell you, automated coffee makers make more you, automated coffee makers make more you, automated coffee makers make more of my coffee of my coffee of my coffee uh more cups of coffee during the day uh more cups of coffee during the day uh more cups of coffee during the day than the ones that I brew by hand. Now, than the ones that I brew by hand. Now, than the ones that I brew by hand. Now, >> so an automated coffee maker is making >> so an automated coffee maker is making >> so an automated coffee maker is making coffee for me and my wife first thing in coffee for me and my wife first thing in coffee for me and my wife first thing in the morning. I'm not making by hand the morning. I'm not making by hand the morning. I'm not making by hand anymore.

anymore. anymore. >> And one time later in the day, I'm using >> And one time later in the day, I'm using >> And one time later in the day, I'm using a different robot to make a single cup a different robot to make a single cup a different robot to make a single cup by hand right before I come back to work by hand right before I come back to work by hand right before I come back to work after lunch. So that I don't have to after lunch. So that I don't have to after lunch. So that I don't have to spend 7 minutes of my lunch hour making spend 7 minutes of my lunch hour making spend 7 minutes of my lunch hour making coffee by hand. But I click a button and coffee by hand. But I click a button and coffee by hand. But I click a button and there is new technology now that existed there is new technology now that existed there is new technology now that existed that didn't exist 5 years ago that can that didn't exist 5 years ago that can that didn't exist 5 years ago that can brew specialty coffee for me at home brew specialty coffee for me at home brew specialty coffee for me at home automated automatically automated automatically automated automatically as good and in some cases better than I as good and in some cases better than I as good and in some cases better than I could have especially if I was in a could have especially if I was in a could have especially if I was in a rush. So to me that's analogous to to rush. So to me that's analogous to to rush. So to me that's analogous to to this technological shift that we're this technological shift that we're this technological shift that we're living through right now with these all living through right now with these all living through right now with these all these brand new tools that didn't exist these brand new tools that didn't exist these brand new tools that didn't exist never mind 5 years ago cloud co-work never mind 5 years ago cloud co-work never mind 5 years ago cloud co-work didn't exist 3 weeks ago and now it does didn't exist 3 weeks ago and now it does didn't exist 3 weeks ago and now it does and it's like okay there's a lot of and it's like okay there's a lot of and it's like okay there's a lot of things maybe that I currently do in my things maybe that I currently do in my things maybe that I currently do in my work at my job or in my church that this work at my job or in my church that this work at my job or in my church that this technology could do that's going to technology could do that's going to technology could do that's going to liberate me to spend more time with in liberate me to spend more time with in liberate me to spend more time with in my case spend slower mornings with my my case spend slower mornings with my my case spend slower mornings with my family I'm not brewing two cups of family I'm not brewing two cups of family I'm not brewing two cups of coffee by hand anymore the coffee coffee by hand anymore the coffee coffee by hand anymore the coffee machine is doing it for me ironic Ally, machine is doing it for me ironic Ally, machine is doing it for me ironic Ally, the coffee machine uh has a name like the coffee machine uh has a name like the coffee machine uh has a name like from the company, not a nickname that from the company, not a nickname that from the company, not a nickname that I've given it to.

Have you ever considered that if you Have you ever considered that if you Have you ever considered that if you need a series of robots alongside your need a series of robots alongside your need a series of robots alongside your own manual brewing methods to produce own manual brewing methods to produce own manual brewing methods to produce the amount of coffee for just a single the amount of coffee for just a single the amount of coffee for just a single dwelling family that perhaps maybe that dwelling family that perhaps maybe that dwelling family that perhaps maybe that says something about your substance uh says something about your substance uh says something about your substance uh use? I don't actually drink that much use? I don't actually drink that much use? I don't actually drink that much coffee. coffee. coffee. >> Whatever you say. All right, into these >> Whatever you say. All right, into these >> Whatever you say. All right, into these tools. Enough teasing. The first one is tools. Enough teasing. The first one is tools. Enough teasing. The first one is an actual thing my church did. And when an actual thing my church did. And when an actual thing my church did. And when you hear this, I am confident the you hear this, I am confident the you hear this, I am confident the comments will demand more. I think we're comments will demand more. I think we're comments will demand more. I think we're going to do an entire YouTube video on going to do an entire YouTube video on going to do an entire YouTube video on it. So, we all know the feeling within it. So, we all know the feeling within it. So, we all know the feeling within our souls when a person walks up to the our souls when a person walks up to the our souls when a person walks up to the sound booth and they say, "It's too sound booth and they say, "It's too sound booth and they say, "It's too loud. Turn it down." loud. Turn it down." loud. Turn it down." >> So, recently we got a few more >> So, recently we got a few more >> So, recently we got a few more complaints than normal at our church of complaints than normal at our church of complaints than normal at our church of a couple thousand about this. And so, we a couple thousand about this. And so, we a couple thousand about this. And so, we were like, you know what? We need to were like, you know what? We need to were like, you know what? We need to stop like with our simple like we hold stop like with our simple like we hold stop like with our simple like we hold up a, you know, db reader and go, it's up a, you know, db reader and go, it's up a, you know, db reader and go, it's fine. We want to get into some actual fine. We want to get into some actual fine. We want to get into some actual hard data here. And so what's cool about hard data here. And so what's cool about hard data here. And so what's cool about modern soundboards is that they actually modern soundboards is that they actually modern soundboards is that they actually document all of the like volume meters document all of the like volume meters document all of the like volume meters and incredibly intricate sound frequency and incredibly intricate sound frequency and incredibly intricate sound frequency metrics that I am not yet uh metrics that I am not yet uh metrics that I am not yet uh sophisticated in. And so what we did was sophisticated in. And so what we did was sophisticated in. And so what we did was we took like 90 days of data from the we took like 90 days of data from the we took like 90 days of data from the soundboard and then put it into an LLM soundboard and then put it into an LLM soundboard and then put it into an LLM and basically said contextualize this and basically said contextualize this and basically said contextualize this for us with benchmarks with what we're for us with benchmarks with what we're for us with benchmarks with what we're running. help us understand what some of

running. help us understand what some of running. help us understand what some of these benchmarks even mean because we these benchmarks even mean because we these benchmarks even mean because we don't know what like this number means don't know what like this number means don't know what like this number means and give us like an actual answer that and give us like an actual answer that and give us like an actual answer that we can give to people rooted in data and we can give to people rooted in data and we can give to people rooted in data and like universal benchmarks not just like like universal benchmarks not just like like universal benchmarks not just like yeah it's fine. And so like what we did yeah it's fine. And so like what we did yeah it's fine. And so like what we did was we ran all of that. We created a was we ran all of that. We created a was we ran all of that.
