One platform for the whole work of a church.
People, groups, patterns, serving, services, giving, and the intelligence that reads across all of it are included in every plan.
What Scout notices
Scout reads across every domain below.
Scout connects participation, serving, giving, and groups into a unified picture of each person, then names what you’d otherwise miss (your most consistent volunteers pulling back, the family who came to a group six weeks before their first Sunday, the household that hasn’t been seen since Easter) and surfaces it where you’ll see it.
- Cross-domain pattern reading
- Notices volunteers and members pulling back
- Pastoral briefings before the week starts
- Connections between groups, giving, and serving
See every person in their full context.
People
People & Households
Every person has a complete profile that holds households, relationships, contact info, notes, and history in one place. Scout reads the full picture across every domain.
- Household grouping with relationship mapping
- Custom fields and tags
- Search and filter across any attribute
- Automatic duplicate detection
Groups
Groups
Small groups, Bible studies, classes, and ministry teams all live here. Track membership, participation, and leaders. Scout shows you which groups are thriving and which need attention.
- Flexible group types (small group, class, ministry)
- Leader and member management
- Meeting tracking
- Group health visibility
Patterns
Patterns
Find the path your people most often walk from first visit to fully connected. See the environments that move people along, and the ones that don't, so you can build for growth.
- Behavioral pattern discovery
- Impact analysis on environments
- Per-person journey view
- Find people who are stuck or stalled
Everything that goes into a Sunday.
Serving
Teams & Scheduling
Build volunteer teams, set roles, manage availability, create schedules. Scout knows who's been serving a lot and who might be ready for something new.
- Drag-and-drop scheduling
- Volunteer availability and blackout dates
- Automatic conflict detection
- All-morning and per-service team types
Services
Services & Run of Show
Plan every element of your Sunday: songs, messages, transitions, announcements. The result is a shareable production document your whole team can follow, with dual time columns for multiple service times.
- Section-based Run of Show builder
- Dual time columns for multiple services
- Shareable with production team
- Week-to-week duplication
Check-in
Check-in & Kiosk
Child check-in is fast and secure. A volunteer looks up the family by phone and selects the children, then Scout assigns the room and prints the labels.
- Phone-based family lookup
- Automatic room assignment
- Printed security labels
- Staff panel with live room occupancy
Where your people give and stay connected.
Giving
Giving
Accept donations online and in person, by ACH or card, recurring or one-time. Giving reports roll up at the household level. Scout never adds platform fees, so you pay standard Stripe processing (as low as 2.2% + 30¢ for nonprofits).
- Scout takes no cut of any donation
- ACH and card support
- Recurring giving
- Household-level donor reporting
Member app
Member App
A progressive web app your congregation installs from the browser. It carries a personal serving schedule, mobile giving, group access, event registration, and check-in, all branded to your church.
- Install from the browser, no app store
- Branded to your church (color, mark, name)
- Personal schedule, giving, groups, events
- Notifications for serving and reminders
Forms, workflows, lists, and reports for everyday work.
Forms
Build custom forms for signups, surveys, event registration, volunteer applications. Responses feed directly into people profiles so nothing gets lost between a form submission and a follow-up.
- Custom form builder
- Automatic profile linking
- Conditional fields
- Embeddable on any page
Follow-up
Workflows
Volunteer onboarding, membership steps, and follow-up pipelines, each with a named owner. When someone sits too long at one step, Scout tells the owner, so no application gets discovered in a folder three months later.
- Step-based pipelines with owners
- Scout mentions enrollments that stall
- Enroll people from a form response
- Progress visible on the person's profile
People
Lists
Ask in plain English and get a list you can act on. Dynamic lists update automatically as people meet the criteria. Static lists let you build curated groups for targeted follow-up.
- Plain-English search across your people
- Dynamic and static lists
- Bulk actions on list members
- Export for external tools
Services
Reports
See what's happening across your church, including participation trends, giving patterns, volunteer engagement, and group health.
- Participation and giving dashboards
- Volunteer engagement tracking
- Custom date range filtering
- Exportable data
Every plan includes all of it.
Scout takes no cut of your giving. There are no contracts, and one price that scales with your church.
