Your faith, now agent-ready — and in 140+ languages

For weeks we've been laying groundwork. This week it comes together: SoapBox is now agent-ready — carefully, and on your terms.

🤝 Connect your AI agent

You can now connect a trusted AI assistant to parts of your faith life. Every capability is opt-in and bounded:

• Prayer — let an agent add prayers to your wall or pray with you.
• Faith context — share a portable, consented snapshot of where you are spiritually, so any agent can meet you there. You control it, and you can revoke it anytime.
• Giving — let an agent give on your behalf, with hard caps you set, direct to the church. We never touch the money — giving is pass-through.

⛪ For pastors: share your content with AI agents — and get paid

• "Share with AI agents" marketplace — list your sermons and teaching for AI agents to license, with a 70/30 split in your favor (on net revenue, stated plainly).
• Sermon Series bundles — package a whole series as a single product.

This is the moat we believe in: the most relevant, grounded Christian content in the world, created by real pastors, made available to the agentic web on fair terms.

🧩 For developers: the Faith Content API

We opened a public API and an MCP server so any AI app can access grounded, scripture-verified faith content — verse lookup, Strong's, scripture verification, church discovery, and grounded Q&A. Free to read, and built so agents can discover it on their own.

🌍 SoapBox now speaks 140+ languages

SoapBox now meets you in your language: read the Bible, talk with ORA, and engage your community in 140+ languages — Spanish, Portuguese, French, Arabic, Persian, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Korean, Hindi, Swahili and many more, plus the Ugandan languages close to our heart. The app's own interface is translated into dozens of these today and growing fast. A few things came with it:

• Switch instantly. Change your language in Settings and the entire app updates on the spot — including right-to-left languages like Arabic and Persian — without bouncing you off the screen you're on.
• Help us get it right. Machine translation gets us most of the way; native speakers get us the rest. Press and hold any translated text to suggest a better wording — it goes straight to our review queue. We'd rather launch in your language now and improve it together than make you wait.
• Real flag artwork in every picker, including the historic Lion-and-Sun for Persian/Farsi, and Traditional Chinese (繁體中文).
• The marketing website translates into 140+ languages with a one-tap picker.

💸 Fairer pricing has arrived

A subscription that costs the same in Kampala as in California isn't fair. Purchasing-power pricing is now live: SoapBox costs roughly what's reasonable where you live — substantially less in lower-income countries. Same features, fairer price. (Showing and charging in your local currency is coming next; for now prices appear in USD at your country's adjusted rate.)

🖥️ Better on iPad & Mac

On bigger screens, SoapBox now uses a proper sidebar layout instead of a stretched-out phone screen — Home, Faith, Communities, Messages, Giving, and your profile all one click away. It's the first step toward a real native Mac experience.

🛠️ What we fixed — the honest section

• We found and fixed a back-end issue where several automated jobs had quietly stopped running after a security-key change — including the pastors' Monday Morning Report. They're flowing again, and we backfilled the reports that were missed. We'd rather tell you than hope you didn't notice.
• New-visitor cards no longer rush you with a countdown — swipe to dismiss, tap to open.
• Assigned reading plans now open the day's devotional, not the bare Bible reader.
• Welcome notifications take you straight to the right community.
• Joining a nearby church no longer creates duplicate communities.

🔜 What's next

• Local-currency pricing — show and charge in your own currency, not just USD.
• A real native Mac app — menus, keyboard shortcuts, the works.
• More native-speaker review of the new languages — keep the corrections coming.
