In their own words

HolyJot

HolyJot combines faith journaling, Bible study, Scripture-focused AI, community, and church management tools. Individuals can link notes to Scripture, track moods, lock entries with a PIN, record voice journals, and create time-capsule entries. The Bible reader offers six translations, full-text search, text-to-speech, and verse-level journaling. More than 5,000 study plans include daily passages, reflection prompts, progress tracking, and AI-generated plans. FaithAI answers Bible questions with Scripture context, cross-references, and commentary. Church features include member profiles and a directory, events and attendance, online giving, a sermon library, and email campaigns. Churches can also use an embeddable chat widget based on a church knowledge base. HolyJot is free for individuals and churches, with unlimited journal entries, FaithAI conversations, and community hubs; optional volunteer background checks cost $5. It works in a browser and is optimized as a progressive web app that can be added to an iPhone or Android home screen. HolyJot says it does not sell personal information.
