AskMyChurch vs Subsplash

Subsplash is the all-in-one app, website, media, and giving platform for churches. AskMyChurch adds the lane it doesn't cover: grounded public Q&A on your site.

Subsplash and AskMyChurch are not competing for the same job. Subsplash runs your church's app, website, media, streaming, and giving; AskMyChurch does one thing Subsplash doesn't — it answers visitors' questions on your website using only what your church has actually published — so most churches would keep Subsplash and add AskMyChurch next to it.

What each one is

Subsplash's own phrase for its platform is "a digital home for your church," and as of this writing its site says it's trusted by 20,000 churches and ministries. The suite is wide: custom church apps, websites, live streaming, sermon media hosting, church management, groups and messaging, events, email and SMS, and online giving.

AskMyChurch is narrower on purpose. It's an assistant that lives on your church's website and answers questions — service times, what you believe, where to park, what the pastor said about forgiveness — using only your own website and sermons. Answers come with their sources, including sermon citations that link to the exact minute of the recording (we call that layer Canon). When it doesn't know, it says so and hands the person to a real human instead of making something up. We call it the front door of your church, always open.

Two different kinds of AI

Subsplash does have AI, and it's genuinely useful — for your staff. Pulpit AI turns one sermon into more than 20 pieces of content: video clips, devotionals, small-group guides, blog posts, newsletters. Its Sermon Assistant chat is built for the pastor, "to help with everything before and after you preach." Trends AI handles data analysis. All of that points inward, at the people who make and manage church content.

As of this writing, we could not find a public, congregant-facing Q&A assistant anywhere on Subsplash's site — nothing a first-time visitor could ask "do you have a ministry for special-needs kids?" at 11pm on a Saturday. That lane is what AskMyChurch was built for. Every answer is grounded in your published content; if the content isn't there, the assistant doesn't invent an answer. It works in English and Spanish. And if someone writes in acute distress, hard-coded crisis routing puts 988 and the Crisis Text Line in front of them — in both languages — before any AI responds at all.

Pricing, plainly

Subsplash's platform pricing (Subsplash One, Enterprise) is custom-quoted — the pricing page says "pricing based on church size and usage" and asks you to talk to sales. The one number they publish is for Subsplash Giving: a $0/month platform fee with card processing at 2.3% + 30¢ and ACH at 1%, dropping as low as 1.9% and 0.5% through their GrowCurve program. Those are competitive giving rates.

AskMyChurch publishes flat monthly pricing by weekend attendance: $99 Base (under 500), $249 Growth (500–2,000), $500 Premium (2,000+ or multi-campus). Every plan starts with a 30-day free trial, carries a money-back guarantee, and you can cancel anytime. Note the scope difference before comparing numbers: theirs prices a whole platform, ours prices one assistant.

What Subsplash does well

Fair is fair: Subsplash's strength is real. You don't get to 20,000 churches by accident. Getting an app, a website, streaming, media hosting, and giving from one vendor — integrated, mature, with published giving rates that beat plenty of processors — is a hard thing to build, and they built it. If your church needs infrastructure, we'd point you at Subsplash or a platform like it without hesitation. AskMyChurch doesn't make apps, host media, or process a single dollar of giving, and we're not going to pretend otherwise.

Which should you pick?

If your gap is infrastructure — app, website, streaming, giving — pick Subsplash. That's their lane, not ours.

If your gap is answering people — visitors and members asking real questions on your website and getting honest, sourced answers in English or Spanish — that's AskMyChurch. We've already built working previews for churches across six metros, including 84 in Atlanta, 79 in Nashville, and 38 in Knoxville, each one waiting for its church to claim it at askmy.church.

And if you already run Subsplash: keep it. Add AskMyChurch on the website it hosts. The two don't touch each other's work, and together your people get both the digital home and someone at the front door.
