You don’t change how you go live. In three steps, your anonymous online crowd becomes named people your team can actually reach.
Step 1
Keep streaming wherever you stream today — YouTube, Facebook, your website, or your own encoder. Point your stream at PealCast (RTMP or SRT) or connect the platform you already use. No new hardware, no new camera, no switching. The moment you go live, PealCast knows.
What you keep: your current stream, your platform, your Sunday routine.
Step 2
The second the service starts, every member gets a one-tap notification to watch — by text, email, or browser, and straight through Planning Center (SMS, email, push). As people watch, PealCast invites them to connect with a warm, church-native prompt (“get connected,” “how can we pray for you?”). Each connection is a real, verified cellphone number added to your church’s own list — never a paywall.
What you keep: your list. It stays yours, on every platform.
Step 3
PealCast watches quietly and builds two short lists from who actually showed up: New Faces to welcome, and the ones you’ve Missed lately to check on — each with a name and a number, ready to text or call. One click to mark someone contacted, hand them to a team member, or open their Planning Center card.
What you get: follow-up that used to be impossible online, in ten minutes on a Monday.
PealCast adds a layer on top of what you already do. That’s the whole idea.
Connect your stream and your Planning Center and your first Shepherd’s Report lands within the week. Setup is minutes, not a project.
People are notified and watch on the channels they already use. No app to download, no account to create.
Connecting is opt-in, numbers are verified real mobiles, and every text carries STOP. It’s pastoral, not surveillance.
Keep your streaming platform; sync straight to Planning Center. Breeze, CCB, and Rock are next.
Book a 20-minute walkthrough and we’ll show you the Shepherd’s Report with your church’s name on it.
