ShepherdOS is a web service for churches managing children’s registration, check-in, safeguarding, attendance, and collection. QR check-in and verified check-out are time-stamped and audit-trailed. Safeguarding tools include allergy badges, consent tracking, and accessible emergency contacts. Parents can register children, submit consent, pay fees from a phone, and sign photo, medical, and participation consent digitally. Push notifications cover check-ins, collection reminders, and emergencies. A live dashboard combines attendance, reports, and volunteer assignments. The Multi-Church feature gives each church separate branding, data, and policies. The site also lists AI Pastor, Kids Faith Zone with Bible stories and faith activities, and AI-generated daily reflections. Starter costs 29.00 GBP per month for up to 50 children and two events. Pro costs 79.00 GBP per month with unlimited children and events. Enterprise has custom pricing and adds multi-site, API, SSO/SAML, retention controls, and account management.
