For churches

A church workspace for care, publishing, and livestream operations

Relay brings people, groups, public pages, livestreams, checklists, and follow-up work into one system your team can actually keep current.

Dogfooded proof

Livestream setup that belongs next to the rest of church life

Relay's livestream detail page was exercised locally: create a service, review encoder settings, set destinations, and run the operations checklist.

Service livestreams

Schedule streams, track readiness, manage destinations, and keep public viewing tied to the church profile.

Public organization profile

Publish directories, content, and events from the same organization that manages private work.

Operations checklists

Keep recurring Sunday work visible without splitting ministry and media into separate tools.

Use cases

Church workflows Relay can compose

Church work spans people, media, events, giving, volunteers, and public communication. Relay treats those as connected surfaces.

Groups and directories

Make member, volunteer, and ministry directories part of the same data model as care and publishing.

Public content

Publish videos, notes, livestreams, forms, and collections through your Relay organization.

Care after events

Turn attendance, forms, service notes, and livestream engagement into real follow-up.

Playbook

From Sunday to follow-up

Relay is strongest when public ministry and private care share the same memory.

1

Schedule

Create the livestream and review operational readiness.

2

Publish

Share the public service surface through the church profile.

3

Collect

Save forms, prayer requests, notes, and links around the service.

4

Follow up

Route care tasks to people and teams while context is fresh.

Capacity

Relay is built for the relationships you cannot afford to forget

Dunbar's number is useful as a starting map, but Relay uses Circles as something you can correct: closeness, urgency, and cadence stay separate.

Circles

Dunbar, made correctable

Relay treats relational capacity as a living map, not a hard ceiling. You can correct the circles, then Relay uses that context to decide who needs attention.

Who needs action, prayer, help, or follow-up now.

Keep church operations and care in the same room

Relay can start as a livestream and content workspace, then grow into relational intelligence for the whole church.
