An online prayer space

Say what’s on your heart.
Real people answer.

Post what’s on your heart. Members read it and pray, reply, or simply say they’re with you. Any tradition, or none. No ads, no feed, nothing sold.

Open by invitation — join the waitlist and we’ll send you one as we expand.

Or look at the board first →

Nobody gets left on read.

We are building this so that no post goes unanswered.

  • What you write stays among members.

    Posts are members-only by default — not indexed, not searchable, not shared anywhere else. Nothing you write is visible outside unless you choose to make it so.

  • Real people. No AI ever speaks.

    Every reply is written by a person. AI never writes an answer or pretends to be one — it only helps us catch things that need a human, fast.

  • Whatever you believe, or don’t.

    No statement of faith, no questionnaire, no tradition to pick. Nobody here is trying to convert you.

  • Come when you need to.

    No feed to keep up with, no streaks, no digests engineered to pull you back. Open it when something’s on your mind — that’s the whole design.

Whatever brought you here.

“My dad’s in the hospital.”

You stop carrying it alone. One sentence is enough; you don’t have to get the words right. Members read it and answer — a prayer, a few words, or simply “I’m with you” — and an email tells you when someone has.

Corina’s prayer request opened on a phone, with the first of its two replies underneath.

“I want to pray for someone.”

You’ll always find someone who hasn’t been answered yet — there’s a view for exactly that, oldest first. A few words is a real answer; a reaction is enough on the days you have nothing to say. Nobody is asking you to be anyone’s counselor.

A reply on a phone from someone who sat through the same wait, with the box to write your own underneath.

“My church is on the other side of the world.”

Distance stops deciding who shows up for you. A request posted at midnight in one country is read at breakfast in another; nobody’s time zone has to win. The people who’d pray for you are still your people.

The prayer board on a phone: people in different places, posting hours apart.

“I pray every day anyway.”

Then you get one more place to do it, with other people in it — whether you never stopped or haven’t in years. Nothing’s engineered to pull you back: no feed to keep up with, no streak, no digest you didn’t ask for. Some days you bring something; some days you read and hold what others carry for a minute. Nothing’s wrong. That’s allowed too.

The new-post screen on a phone, part-way through somebody writing a request.

“I don’t have anyone to ask.”

You don’t need to. This is built so nobody goes unanswered: what you post goes to members who are looking for exactly that, and stays among members unless you choose otherwise. People you’ve never met will read it and answer — not because they know you, but because that’s what this place is for.

The board filtered to the posts nobody has answered yet, oldest first.

Some people read and never post. That counts too.

Every post gets read. Every reply comes from a person. No AI ever speaks here.

Our guiding principles

Settled before we wrote a line of code.

  • Safe.

    Every post is screened, the guidelines are public, and a person always makes the final call.

  • Private and secure.

    Members only by default, encrypted, never sold, yours to delete any time.

  • Accessible.

    We build toward WCAG 2.2 AA — for screen readers, keyboards, and older phones.

  • Free, and no ads.

    Asking for prayer and offering it are free, always. No advertising anywhere a prayer appears.

  • Careful with AI.

    AI helps us find what needs a person’s attention. It never speaks, never prays, never pretends to be a person.

You don’t have to take our word for any of it. Our specs, change log, roadmap and accessibility commitments are public.

Prayer apps have a bad record.

These are not rumors. Each one is documented, and each one links to the reporting.

  • Ten million people’s data left open on the internet. In 2020, researchers found a Christian prayer app had exposed names, addresses, phone numbers, church donation records, and the entire phone contact lists of its users — most of whom were never told the app had uploaded them. The company’s CEO replied to the researchers’ warnings with one word: “Unsubscribe.”Source: vpnMentor · Infosecurity Magazine
  • Prayer-time data sold to a broker that sold to the military. The most popular Muslim prayer app, with nearly 100 million downloads, sent users’ precise location to a data broker whose customers included US defense contractors. The broker wasn’t mentioned in the app’s privacy policy.Source: Vice · Religion News Service
  • Twenty-eight of thirty-two apps failed. Mozilla reviewed mental-health and prayer apps in 2022 and gave its “Privacy Not Included” warning to nearly all of them, for sharing personal data with third parties, allowing passwords like “1”, and treating users’ most sensitive data as a business asset. One prayer app was named among the six worst.Source: Mozilla Foundation
  • Buying files about their own users from data brokers. A 2022 investigation found a prayer app supplementing what it knew about members with purchased data — and only added that fact to its privacy policy after reporters asked.Source: BuzzFeed News

Good intentions are not a safeguard. What we did instead is build this so those failures aren’t available to us — no ads, no data sales, no profile of you, no contact-list upload, and a public list of every company that touches your words. Then we wrote it down where you can check. Read the privacy policy →

Do you lead a congregation, a prayer circle, or a handful of friends who check in on each other?

Then you’re much of the reason we’re building this. There’s a page for you — what’s built, what’s coming, and how to bring your group in first.

Ready when you are.

We’re starting small, on purpose. We’re open by invitation. Join the waitlist and we’ll send you one as we expand.
