About
Built by a church family, for churches of every size.
Steeple started the way a lot of church software does: a family that served on Sunday mornings got tired of the spreadsheet, the separate giving site, the slide software that lived on one laptop, and the group text nobody could leave.
The short story
Why a steeple: it is the one part of a church you can see from the whole town.
We built the first version for our own church: a directory that check-in and giving could both write to, so a first-time guest who dropped a card and gave online showed up once, not twice. Then the worship team asked for slides that read the service plan. Then the kids director asked for labels. It kept going.
Along the way we became convinced that most church software is priced and packaged in a way that punishes small churches: per-module fees, per-text fees, and a percentage skimmed from every gift. We do not think a plant meeting in a school gym should pay more of its offering to software than a church with a full-time IT person.
So Steeple is one product with one price, and giving runs on the church's own Stripe account. We would rather earn a subscription than a slice of the tithe.
What we believe
Software for churches should be honest.
One product, one price.
A church should not have to buy check-in from one vendor, giving from another and slides from a third, then stitch the lists together by hand. It is all one thing here.
No processing spread.
Giving runs on your own Stripe account. We do not mark up card fees or take a percentage of tithes. Our income is the subscription, and that keeps our incentives honest.
Built for the volunteer at 8:45.
Most of the people using church software are not staff. If a kiosk or a slide controller needs a manual, we have failed.
