ServeTogether is a volunteer scheduling and communication platform for churches and religious organizations. Coordinators can create recurring rotations that generate volunteer slots week after week, while volunteers can confirm a shift or seek a substitute through a text or email link without an account or app download. If someone needs coverage, ServeTogether contacts likely replacements by text; the first to accept gets the opening. One-off events can have signup pages with custom questions and QR codes. Coordinators can mark volunteers as cleared and require clearance for selected roles, without using a particular background-check provider. The platform flags possible double bookings for overlapping service times. Plans include unlimited coordinators and monthly text allowances, with no separate per-text charges or number fees. Starter costs 15.00 USD per month for up to 40 active volunteers, 300 texts monthly and two active events; Standard costs 35.00 USD per month, and Large costs 75.00 USD per month. There is no free plan, but a 30-day trial is available. ServeTogether is web-based and focuses on volunteer scheduling rather than giving, check-in and member-database features.
