Pewnote is the companion app for church members. Take notes during the service, keep them organized by series, and let AI help you hold on to what was preached. RECORD THE SERMON, GET A REAL NOTE Let Pewbeam take sermon notes for your with a tap. When the sermon ends, Pewnote transcribes it and writes a clean, structured note from the sermon and anything you typed along the way. Your own words always come first: names, numbers and scripture references you wrote down win over what the microphone heard. YOUR CHURCH'S SERMONS, IN YOUR POCKET When your church runs Pewbeam, every sermon it publishes lands in Pewnote: a clean, structured note written from what was actually preached, plus a quiz to test yourself on the message. Join with your church's invite code and the library fills itself. NOTES THAT UNDERSTAND CHURCH A fast, beautiful editor with bold, italics, underline and bullets. Type a verse reference like John 3:16 and it becomes a tappable link to the passage. Press record sermon when your thumbs cannot keep up. QUIZ YOURSELF, CLIMB THE BOARD After each sermon, take a short quiz built from the message. Earn points, keep your streak, and climb your church leaderboard. Friendly competition, zero pressure. ASK YOUR NOTES ANYTHING Chat with an AI assistant grounded in your own sermon notes and transcripts. Ask what the preacher meant, get a recap of last month's series, or dig deeper into a passage. DEVOTIONALS FROM YOUR OWN NOTES Turn any note into a personal devotional plan: pick a note, and AI writes a 3, 5 or 7 day devotional from it, grounded in scripture. Read daily, build a streak, and keep what moved you alive all week, alongside devotionals drawn from your church's sermons. MADE FOR MEMBERS Your notes are private to you. Your church sees the leaderboard, never your notes. Delete your account and data at any time from Settings. PEWNOTE PLUS Some features (AI session summaries, chat, quizzes and note export) require a Pewnote Plus subscription: $4.99 per month or $49.99 per year, each with a 1 week free trial.
