What sets Clearstream apart?
15+ Years of Experience
We've been around since 2010, and we're trusted by more than 9,000 churches. We're a small, tight-knit team with a long-standing reputation.
Killer Customer Support
Our support team is made up of real people who are extremely knowledgeable. Our average response time is 2 minutes, and we don't use AI or chatbots. See what our customers say, or schedule a personal Zoom call with us to see for yourself.
Intuitive Software
Clearstream is thoughtfully designed and easy to use. We build features and integrations based on what churches request, and we're careful not to clutter the UI with unnecessary features or marketing callouts.
Transparent Pricing
Our pricing is easy to understand and affordable. No hidden fees. No contracts. No sales gimmicks. We, like everyone else, hate sales traps, so we don't use them.
Meticulous About Our Product
We're a product-first team focused solely on building beautiful software for the local church. We sweat the details and painstakingly refine every feature we build.
Founder Owned
Clearstream is not owned by stockholders, which means we don't have to spin up half-baked features or increase prices to keep investors happy. We prioritize quality, and taking care of our customers.
Hear from our customers

Customer Review
We didn't stick with Gloo because it wasn't the right fit for our needs. Clearstream has given us the reliability, ease of use, and great integration we were looking for.
Powerful, user-friendly dashboard
See helpful metrics and incoming messages at a glance, all in one place. Quickly see who still needs a response and monitor how your recently sent messages are performing.
Easily reply to your people
Never miss a message with our organized inbox. See who’s still waiting on a reply, quickly search messages, and easily mark conversations as done. Easily switch between each ministry's inboxes and reply on the go with our Android and iOS apps.
Effortless integrations
Clearstream integrates with the tools your church already uses: Planning Center, Breeze, Rock RMS, CCB/Pushpay, Slack, and more. Easily add new subscribers, share Planning Center forms, and send texts with Clearstream without leaving Planning Center with our Add-On.
Customer Review
I am so glad I went with this instead of Gloo simply because of the customer service from Clearstream. The best!!
