What AskScripture does

Every answer cites chapter and verse. The answer opens with a plain summary, then works through the question in short sections, each point tied to a reference. The verses themselves are shown in full in the app's verse cards, pulled from a licensed translation rather than written by the model.

Insights from trusted Christian thinkers, with the book they came from. Where a respected author has addressed the question, the answer summarises their view and links to the actual book, marked verified once the source has been confirmed. The AI does not replace teachers; it points to them.

Teaching videos, cued to the moment. Related videos from Christian teachers are linked with a timestamp, so the viewer lands where the question is actually addressed instead of at the start of an hour-long talk.

Voice, when typing is the wrong tool. Premium includes Live Conversation: ask out loud, hear the answer, and follow up, hands-free.

Parent mode. A parent can ask on behalf of a child, and the answer is written for the parent to use: pitched to the child's age range, honest about where Christians differ, and clear about what to say and what to leave for later. The parent has the conversation; the app equips them for it.

Honest about being AI. The app says plainly that answers are AI-drafted and can be wrong. Every answer has a report button. A consent screen explains what leaves the phone before anything does. And the app is described everywhere as a study companion, not a replacement for a pastor or a church community.

Boilerplate

AskScripture is an AI study companion for Christian adults. Ask a question about faith or the Bible by text or voice and get a Scripture-grounded answer with chapter-and-verse citations, insights from trusted Christian thinkers linked to their books, and timestamped teaching videos. Parent mode helps parents answer the hard questions their kids ask. AskScripture is published by DeepAnchor Studio LLC and is available on the App Store and Google Play, free to start, with Standard at $4.99 a month and Premium at $9.99 a month, each after a 7-day free trial. It is a study companion, not a replacement for a pastor or church community.

A note from the founder

I built AskScripture because I got tired of the two bad options. A general chatbot will answer any faith question fluently, and it will invent the verse reference while it does it. A devotional app will not answer the question at all. Neither is what someone wants at eleven at night with a real question and nobody to ask.

What I wanted was simple to say and hard to build: an answer that shows its work. Chapter and verse you can open. A thinker's name next to the book the idea came from. A video cued to the minute where a teacher actually addresses it. The AI's job is to draft and organise. The sources' job is to be checkable.

That is also why the app says out loud what it is. It is AI. It can be wrong. Every answer has a report button, and the app is not a replacement for your pastor or your church. I would rather lose a user to their small group than keep one by pretending to be something I am not.

Trust and safety

Two pages on this site exist so that a journalist, a pastor, or a parent can check what the app does rather than take our word for it:

  • The crisis protocol describes, in public, what the app does when a question suggests someone may be in danger, and what it deliberately does not attempt.
  • What happens to your question traces a question from the phone to Microsoft's servers and back, including the parts that are not reassuring, and declines to print any retention figure we could not verify.

In the app itself: a report button on every answer, a consent screen before any data leaves the device, and account deletion from Settings that removes server-side data as well.
