What is Pastors.ai?
Pastors.ai is a content tool for churches that repurposes a recorded sermon into a set of ready-made resources. The starting point is a YouTube link to the sermon, or an uploaded manuscript file. From that the service selects quotable moments and cuts them into short vertical clips with the speaker centred, captions, background music and the church logo added. Alongside the clips it writes a five-day devotional, discussion questions for small groups, and a branded page for the sermon, each with timestamp references pointing to the original video. Clips can be posted to Reels on Instagram and Facebook and to YouTube Shorts with captions and hashtags supplied. A chatbot trained on the church's sermons and website can be embedded as a widget. Results are emailed in about thirty minutes, and a free tier is available.
