Stage by Fellowr

The verse is up before you could type it.

Stage runs Sunday’s screens — songs, scripture, slides — and listens to your preacher. When they say “Romans 8, verse 28,” the verse is waiting on your screen, one key from the wall. It works with the internet off.

No card, no account — just an email when there is a build to install.

Private beta · A good Mac first, then good Windows PCs

Stage hears a citation, offers it, and a person sends it. The demo repeats.

01Running order

Your whole Sunday, in running order.

Build the service in named sections and drag things between them. Next week it opens exactly as you left it, and an accidental delete is one undo away.

Romans 8:28

Scripture · 1 verse · KJV

28And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Romans 8:28

A sample Sunday in Stage’s Service tab — try the cues. Section names are yours to choose.
Songs
Search your library as you type. Moving from EasyWorship? Point Stage at your library and it imports the songs: you review them before anything is written, duplicates are flagged, and the whole import can be undone. Songs only — themes, backgrounds and schedules stay behind, and the report lists exactly what didn’t come.
Scripture
Type Jn 3:16-18 or Rom 8 and it resolves as you type. Walk a chapter, or search by phrase. Eight public-domain English Bibles, the King James and the World English Bible among them, are inside the app — nothing here waits on the internet.
Screens
Audience, stage display and stream each get their own screen, drawn at real fullscreen so no taskbar appears mid-worship. Stage can publish any of them over NDI to OBS or vMix.

02The follower

It tells a citation from a story.

When your preacher says “turn with me to Romans 8,” the passage appears on a rail beside the open chapter. One key sends it to preview, another sends it live. When they’re only telling a story, the rail stays empty. Speech recognition runs on your own machine — never uploaded, never in the cloud.

Half the words in the Bible’s table of contents are ordinary English — mark, acts, job, numbers, judges, kings. Nothing can tell that will mark three decades from a citation except the fact that somebody framed one. So that is the only thing Stage acts on.
The rail in Stage. Every suggestion says how sure Stage is.

Putting a passage up by itself is off until your church turns it on. Even then it waits three visible seconds so a person can veto it, stands down the moment the operator touches the desk, and will not fire into a blackout. The desk always wins.

03Going live

Go live from the desk.

Sign in to YouTube once and Stage sets up the broadcast, starts it, ends it, and tells you when the picture is breaking up. Prefer not to sign in? Paste a stream key and Stage sends the picture without touching your channel. A church with a stream team can send everything to OBS or vMix over NDI instead, and Stage can record to a file on the machine.

Stage’s Studio tab. Each output is its own screen.
What it does on your channel
It creates your live broadcast with the title and audience you chose — private, unlisted or public — starts it, and ends it when you press End broadcast. If the computer loses power mid-service, it ends the broadcast it left running the next time it opens.
What it reads
Your channel’s name and picture, so you can see which channel is connected. The status of the broadcast and YouTube’s own report on whether the picture is arriving. And how many people are watching. Nothing else on your channel is read, changed or deleted.
What stays with you
You sign in on Google’s own page, so Stage never sees your password. The sign-in is kept on your computer — in the Keychain on a Mac — and nothing goes to Fellowr or anyone else. Disconnect in Stage, and remove the permission from your Google Account whenever you like.

Stage’s use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Read the Stage section of our privacy policy.

04Where we are

What works today. What doesn’t yet.

Stage is in private beta with a few churches and has no public download yet. We would rather you knew exactly what is built before you give us your email than be impressed now and disappointed later.

05Questions

The things churches ask us first.

Your sermons stay in the building
Speech recognition runs on your machine. The shipping build has no cloud path at all.
Sunday’s essentials, free
Songs, scripture, media, planning, the desk and your screens. Anything we charge for sits on top of that.
No translation we don’t have rights to
Eight public-domain English Bibles today, the King James and the World English Bible among them. We will not ship NIV, ESV or NKJV without an agreement.

There is no public download yet. Stage is in private beta, by invitation, and we are not going to put a date on a page and miss it. The waitlist exists so you hear the moment there is something real to install.

06Join

Be on the list when Stage opens to more churches.

One email the day there is a build for you to install, and a short note every month or so until then. The churches on this list see it first, and tell us what to fix.
