One bill, one record, one vendor, instead of the four to six tools most churches assemble.
Scout takes no cut of your giving, prices in attendance bands your board can justify, and includes staff permissions and an audit log structured for the way your church already governs itself.
The vendor list, before and after.
Most churches run four to six tools that don’t share a database. Here’s what moving to Scout typically collapses.

Unchanged. Scout doesn’t replace this yet
Four things that decide whether Scout fits your budget.
Scout takes no cut of giving
Giving runs through Stripe Connect as a pass-through. Whatever Stripe charges your church at your nonprofit rate is the whole cost, and Scout takes nothing on top.
No per-seat fees
Staff, volunteers, and members are all unlimited, so you can add the whole church. Your price is set by your attendance band.
Attendance-banded pricing
The bands are under 250, 250–750, 750–2,000, and custom. There are no tier names, and every church gets every feature.
Permissions + audit log
Custom roles for different staff jobs, with a full activity log you can pull for board reporting.

What Scout says to you.
Operational pipelines get watched, and stalls get named while they're still cheap to fix. One settings page shows exactly who on staff hears what, ready for the board question.
How the intelligence worksHas been at Background check in Volunteer onboarding for 12 days.
Volunteer onboarding, membership steps, and follow-up queues keep moving because someone is told the moment one stops.
What Scout doesn’t consolidate yet.
- Scout doesn’t do mass email or SMS yet. Scout surfaces who to reach; the message still goes out from whatever tool you use now.
- Scout doesn’t have an Excel-style export builder yet. You can export every report, but custom column packaging is on the near roadmap.
