Built For Churches
Most people checking out a church are quietly nervous — they want to know when services start, where to park, what to wear, and whether their kids will be looked after. FastBots learns your church website once and answers those questions warmly, any time of day. When someone asks about a wedding, baptism or funeral, it gathers the details and lets your team pick it up from there.
Providing AI Chatbots to Trusted Brands Around The World
Szybkie odpowiedzi
It's a chat widget on your church website that answers everyday questions from visitors — service times, what to expect on a first visit, parking, kids' programmes and community groups. FastBots learns from your existing website and any documents you upload, so the answers sound like your church rather than a generic bot.
No, and it shouldn't. The chatbot handles the repetitive practical questions that fill up the office phone — service times, directions, group schedules — so volunteers and staff have more space for the conversations that actually need a human. Sensitive enquiries get passed on with the right details.
Yes, for the initial enquiry. It explains your church's general process, then collects the visitor's name, contact details and a few specifics in a short form. Those land in your inbox so your minister or wedding coordinator can follow up personally — the chatbot doesn't try to make pastoral decisions.
It starts as an AI chatbot trained on your website, but when you connect a Zapier or Make workflow it can act more like an AI assistant — sending captured enquiries straight into a spreadsheet, your email list or a community-management tool once a conversation ends. You decide what should be automated and what should always reach a person.
Dlaczego FastBots?
Service times, parking, kids' clubs, accessibility — the questions that fill up the office voicemail get answered the moment someone asks, including Saturday nights and bank holidays.
A lot of people checking out a church would rather type than ring. A friendly chat widget gives them a low-pressure way in — and a clear sense of welcome before they ever walk through the door.
Weddings, baptisms, christenings and funerals come in through the lead form with the right details — names, dates, contact info — so your team can follow up personally instead of playing email tag.
On Business plan and above, Live Chat lets a staff member or trained volunteer take over when someone needs more than information — a bereavement, a pastoral question, a difficult moment.
Parent-and-toddler, youth, men's breakfast, food bank, ESOL classes — the chatbot points visitors to the right group, the right time and the right contact person.
If your community is multilingual, visitors can chat in their own language. Useful for international students, refugee ministry and city-centre churches with a diverse Sunday crowd.
On Business plan and above, auto retrain refreshes the bot daily, weekly or monthly — so when service times change for Christmas or holidays, the answers update too.
You set the guardrails. The chatbot answers practical questions and gathers enquiries, and politely redirects spiritual, doctrinal or pastoral questions to a real person on your team.
Rzeczywiste sytuacje
What time, what to wear, what happens during the service, what to do with the kids. The chatbot covers the practical worries that stop people walking in for the first time.
Explains your church's wedding process — eligibility, fees, who to speak to — then collects the couple's names, preferred dates and contact details for your wedding coordinator to follow up.
Walks parents through what's involved, gathers the child's age and family details, and lands the enquiry in your minister's inbox so they can reply with a warm, personal message.
Responds gently, signposts your funeral process, and either gathers contact details for a callback or — on Business plan and above — offers Live Chat so a staff member can take over straight away.
Answers parents' questions about Sunday school, crèche, holiday clubs and youth groups — including age ranges, safeguarding basics and how to register.
Helps newcomers find a small group, a serving team or a volunteer role that fits, and captures their details so a group leader can welcome them in.
Explains how to access the food bank, debt advice, parent-and-toddler groups or ESOL classes — including referral routes, opening times and what to bring.
Answers questions about hiring the hall or other rooms for community use, then captures dates, group size and contact details for the buildings manager.

Rzetelne porównanie
Most churches weighing this up are choosing between a chat widget, a generic contact form that nobody answers until Monday, and asking a volunteer to monitor the inbox. Here's how they stack up for the things a church actually needs.

fastbots miesiąc testowałem fastbots podczas szkolenia w ramach programu Certified Sustainability Specialist. Po miesiącu szkolenia stwierdziłem, że system jest bardzo łatwy w obsłudze i elastyczny. W związku z tym zdecydowałem się wykupić subskrypcję.

Not if you set it up properly. In Tune AI you tell the bot to stick to practical questions — service times, events, groups, life-event processes — and to redirect anything pastoral, spiritual or doctrinal to a real person. The bot is an information and intake tool, not a substitute for a minister, chaplain or pastoral worker.
No, and we'd encourage you not to try. Life-event conversations need a human. What the bot does well is gather the right details — names, preferred dates, contact info, any special circumstances — and send them to your team so the right person can follow up warmly.
It's designed to reduce the load, not add to it. Most enquiries get answered automatically, and lead emails land in whichever inbox you choose. Live Chat is optional — if nobody's available, the bot keeps handling things and captures the enquiry for follow-up later.
On Business plan ($89/month) and above, Live Chat lets a staff member or trained volunteer take over the conversation in real time during set availability hours. Outside those hours, the bot captures the request and a human follows up by email or phone.
Yes — FastBots supports around 95 languages, so visitors can ask questions in their own language and get answers in the same language. Useful for student ministry, refugee outreach and any congregation with a multilingual Sunday.
There's no native integration with ChurchSuite, Planning Center or similar systems today. What you can do is connect FastBots to Zapier or Make and push captured enquiries into a spreadsheet, your email platform or another tool that does talk to your church-management software — once that workflow is set up.
Most churches are up and running in an afternoon. You point it at your website, review what it crawled, set the tone and guardrails, configure the lead form, and paste the embed snippet into your site. Setup is around 5 minutes for the basics; the rest is tuning.
You control what the bot collects in the lead form, and chat conversations are stored in your FastBots dashboard for review. We'd still recommend a short privacy note near the chat widget letting visitors know what happens to their information, especially for safeguarding-sensitive enquiries like youth and children's work.
Yes — and we'd recommend that. In your custom instructions you can tell the bot not to ask for donations or push giving links. If someone specifically asks how to give, it can share the existing page on your website without turning every conversation into an ask.
The free plan covers 1 chatbot and 50 messages a month with no credit card needed, which is enough to test it on your site. Paid plans start at $39/month for Essential, and Live Chat with human takeover is included on Business at $89/month. See the pricing page for current limits.
