Gracely is church management software that brings member records, groups, events, giving, forms, communication, a church website and accounting into one platform. Its About page says it was started by Socrates, a tech-savvy Christian entrepreneur, after he saw churches juggling several disconnected applications that created inefficiency.
The product is built by Starttech Ventures and aimed at faith-based organizations from small congregations to large multi-site churches. Its stated purpose is to simplify administration, improve communication and support church growth, and every plan includes unlimited members.
Staff manage the church from one dashboard-style system built around people records. Each profile holds personal details, family ties and affiliations, and groups sit on top of those records. From there, administrators send personalized emails or SMS, track attendance and run events, with notifications going out to the people involved.
Giving and finance connect to the same records. Donations come in through an embeddable widget and are tracked as contributions, pledges and batches, with tax statements for donors. Members can use a church portal to update profiles, view giving history and register for events. Gracely's team handles data migration from a previous system.
The core toolset covers people and family management, groups, event management and attendance tracking, available even on the Free plan. Standard adds an online giving system with Apple Pay and Google Pay, unlimited donations, contribution tracking, pledge management, batch management, tax statements, follow ups, a church portal and a member directory.
Pro adds the operational tools larger churches tend to need: an accounting system for income, expenses and budgets, a form builder, child check-in, appointments, paid events, rooms and resources, volunteer scheduling and multi-campus management. A website builder lets churches publish a site, and a custom domain can be connected as a paid add-on.
