The free trial

How does "Try a Sunday free" work?

Start a 7-day free trial with a card on file and make one Sunday at full quality: the sermon's weekly docs (slides, lower thirds, carousels, YouTube copy, the thumbnail), 4 reels (3 reels and 1 trial reel), and the podcast episode with AI music beds and AI-voiced pieces. One-click posting is on, and there's no watermark and no end card.

When the 7 days are up, the trial becomes the plan you picked, unless you cancel before then.

7-day free trial · card required · cancel anytime before it ends

Will I be charged during the trial?

No. Your card is charged only when the trial ends and your plan starts. Cancel before the 7 days are up and you pay nothing.

Why do you need a card for a free trial?

It keeps the trial to one per church, and it means your plan carries on without a gap if you keep going. You'll see the plan and its price before you start.

Cancelling

How do I cancel?

Any time, from your account in the app, or by emailing support@afterwordai.com. Cancel during the trial and you won't be charged. Cancel a paid plan and it won't renew.

What happens to everything we made?

Everything Afterword makes can be downloaded at any time while you're subscribed. The Privacy Policy explains how long files are kept after that.

Founders pricing

What is founders pricing?

Prices for the churches that join first: Starter $49, Growth $119 and Pro $229 a month, or Pro at $2,290 a year. Subscribe, or start your free trial, by February 28, 2027 and you keep founders prices for life, while you stay subscribed.

From March 1, 2027, new churches pay $59, $149 and $329 a month (Pro yearly $3,290).

What if we change plans, or cancel and come back?

Change plans and you move to the founders price of the new plan. Cancel and come back later, and standard prices apply.

Does a trial started in February count?

Yes. A trial started by February 28, 2027 becomes a plan at founders prices.

Posting and podcast hosts

Which networks can Afterword post to?

Instagram, Facebook (your church's Page), TikTok and YouTube, plus your Google Business Profile and Google Ads. Posting runs through a posting service you connect once (Upload-Post or Metricool).

Growth posts to Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube and podcast hosts; Pro adds Google Business and Google Ads. On Starter, everything is ready to download and post by hand, with a caption for each network.

Which podcast hosts does it work with?

Buzzsprout, Transistor, Captivate, Podbean, Spreaker, RSS.com, Castos and Libsyn. Spotify and Apple Podcasts get the episode through your host's feed.

No host connected? Download the episode kit: the audio, chapters, show notes and cover art.

Does anything post without us?

No. Reels wait on the storyboard until you approve them, and anything public waits for your yes.

Do we need a YouTube channel?

No. Paste the YouTube link after the service, or upload the video instead.

Will it change our Google Ads budget?

No. Afterword writes a fresh search ad each week in the ad group you choose, and never touches budgets or targeting. Ad spend stays between you and Google.

Data and privacy

What do you do with our sermons and videos?

We use them to make your church's outputs, and for nothing else. We don't sell your data, and Afterword doesn't train AI models on your content.

Writing is done with Anthropic's Claude, and music beds and voiced pieces with ElevenLabs; they receive what's needed to make your outputs. The credentials for accounts you connect are stored encrypted, separately for each church. The Privacy Policy has the details.

How long do you keep our files?

Source videos are kept for 30 days after processing, then deleted. What Afterword made for you stays in your account while you're subscribed. The Privacy Policy covers the rest.

Licensing

Who owns what Afterword makes?

Your church does. Use the slides, carousels, thumbnails, reels, the episode and the copy wherever you share the message. You need the rights to what you bring in: the sermon, the video and any music in it, photos, logos, and any fonts or backgrounds you upload.

Is the AI-written copy ready to post as is?

It's written from your own sermon doc and video, and it's a first draft: read it before it goes out. That's why the storyboard, the before-and-after cards and the yes before posting are there.

Plans

Do you offer annual billing?

On Pro: $2,290$3,290 a year, 2 months free. Starter and Growth bill monthly.
