Shekinex review
A broad church management suite with streaming, recordings, AI tools, and embeddable players.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Shekinex is a cloud-based church management platform for churches and ministries that want member administration and broadcasting in one system. Its scope covers member profiles, groups, departments, visitor follow-up, attendance, giving, finance, prayer, events, devotional publishing, reporting, and service planning. BlizCast adds live audio and video broadcasting, automatic recordings, on-demand episodes, embeddable players, transcription, sermon notes, searchable broadcast content, and AI insights for attendance, follow-up, and giving trends.
The plan structure is designed around church size and organizational complexity. A free entry option and the Grace plan support up to 50 members, with QR attendance, reports, devotional publishing, WhatsApp sharing, prayer walls, and connect cards. Shepherd costs $15 per month and raises capacity to 200 members, five staff, and two branches while adding finances, giving records, service planning, and counseling. Harvest costs $35 per month for up to 1,000 members, 15 staff, and five branches, with BlizCast Live and broadcast services. Kingdom costs $55 per month and adds unlimited members, staff, and branches, API integrations, international visits, and priority support. Enterprise adds consolidated multi-branch oversight, a dedicated account manager, SLA, onboarding, training, and custom integrations.
Shekinex is strongest for organizations that want streaming connected to church operations rather than a narrowly focused broadcast tool. Integrations include BlizCast Radio & TV, Vozante, Stripe, Paystack, Flutterwave, PayPal, WhatsApp, Resend, Twilio SMS, Supabase, and OpenAI. The main purchasing consideration is plan fit: the lower-cost Shepherd tier emphasizes management, while live broadcasting is explicitly presented with Harvest and above. Churches choosing Shekinex should match their member count, staff structure, branches, and broadcasting needs to the tier before committing. It is less suitable for teams seeking a standalone streaming product or a native desktop and mobile platform.
