# What is PrayerConnect?

## Welcome to PrayerConnect

PrayerConnect is a modern, AI-powered prayer management platform designed for church communities. It provides a secure and easy-to-use space where individuals and organizations can submit, share, and manage prayer requests.

**On your phone?** PrayerConnect is free on the [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/prayerconnect-church/id6763160005) and [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=church.prayerconnect.mobile) and uses the same account. See [Getting the PrayerConnect App](https://support.prayerconnect.church/docs/getting-the-mobile-app/).

### What PrayerConnect Does

At its core, PrayerConnect helps you:

- **Submit prayer requests** — Write your prayer needs and share them with your community or keep them private.
- **AI-powered prayer generation** — When you submit a prayer request, our AI assistant automatically generates a beautifully written prayer based on your request. This prayer text is reviewed for appropriateness before going live.
- **Share prayers publicly** — Choose to share a prayer so anyone can pray with you and for you, including your organizations, the Prayer Wall, and PrayerConnect’s social media. Prayers you don’t share stay private.
- **Track prayer support** — See how many people have viewed and prayed for your requests, including a map showing where your prayer support is coming from around the world.
- **Organize through groups** — Join or create organizations (churches, small groups, ministries) to connect with others and share prayers within your community.
