Early access to Banyen.
And a hand in what it becomes.

Banyen is software for churches. It combines giving analytics, timely alerts, and built-in outreach tools in one platform, helping leaders recognize moments that matter and turn them into meaningful opportunities for discipleship. Before it opens to everyone, a small group of alpha churches will run it inside their real weekly rhythms and shape the product every church after them receives.

The trade, in plain terms

What you get. What we ask.

What your church gets

The full product, free, with a founder's thank-you built in.

  • Banyen, free, for the whole alpha. Every feature, no card, no contract. Leave anytime and take your data with you.
  • Early access to every new feature as it ships, before anyone else sees it.
  • A direct line to the founder. Your feedback goes to a person, not a ticket queue, and it steers the roadmap.
  • Mailed letters on us during the alpha, up to 10 per church. Printing from your own office stays unlimited.
🌱 And when the alpha ends: a 33% discount on Banyen, forever, for being willing to go first. At today's pricing that is $66 a month instead of $99, for as long as you are a customer.
What we ask of you

Use it like it's yours. Tell us the truth.

  • Make it part of your real rhythms. Open your Monday page each week and act on a name or two. An alpha church that only visits once teaches us nothing.
  • Feedback throughout. What's confusing, what's missing, what made you roll your eyes. We want the bruises, not the compliments.
  • A testimonial only if we earn it. If you come to believe other churches would benefit, we'd love your words. If you don't, we want to know why even more.
  • Grace for rough edges. It's an alpha. Things will occasionally wobble, and we'll fix them fast.
That's the whole list. No case studies required, no logo rights taken, no fine print.
How it works

Set up like any Banyen church. Just skip the card.

STEP 1

Apply below.

Two minutes. We read every application and reply within two days. If it's a fit, you get your alpha access link.

STEP 2

Set up your church.

The exact signup every paying church will walk through: create your login, set up your church profile, connect Planning Center or upload a giving export. The only difference is that no payment is collected.

STEP 3

Live your Mondays.

Your first Monday page lands the same week. From there it's your normal rhythm: notice, thank, check in, visit, with a short feedback call once a month.

How long does the alpha run? A set window we agree on together before you start; expect a few months, long enough to live with it through real seasons of church life. When it ends, your forever discount begins, and your data stays right where it is. Or you export everything and walk away, no hard feelings.
Start

Start your alpha, free.

Five to ten churches, roughly 200 to 1,000 in weekend attendance. Enter your email and you are in. No card, no code, no contract.

No card, no code. Your sign-in link arrives right away.

An honest note on what "alpha" means here.

The product is built and running; the live demo on the homepage is the real thing. Alpha means you're among the first real churches inside, your feedback carries founder-level weight, and occasionally you'll find an edge we haven't sanded. Your giving data is covered by the same Data Covenant as every future church: encrypted, never shared or sold, deleted on request.

Want to kick the tires before applying?

The full product runs live on the homepage with a realistic generated congregation. No signup, no upload. Set the sliders to your church's size and see your Monday morning.
