How the prayers are made

We're product designers and engineers, not a church or a ministry. We built a system that writes each day's guided prayer and a separate one that checks it. Here is exactly who does what.

Scripture

Every passage is the World English Bible, a modern English translation in the public domain, quoted word for word from eBible.org's text. Psalm titles ("For the Chief Musician") are left out when read aloud. Nothing is paraphrased and called scripture.

Who writes it

Each day is written by AI models (Anthropic's Claude) from a brief we wrote: one passage, a reflection on what it says in its context, one question, three short prayers (thanks, honesty, asking), and one line to carry. Then a second, separate AI check reads every day against a written list, and changes what fails:

• The passage is used in its context, and any quoted words match the World English Bible exactly.
• It stays with what Protestant churches share: the Father, Son and Holy Spirit; grace before effort; Jesus at the centre.
• It takes no side where churches differ (baptism, communion, gifts of the Spirit, the end times), and holds no Catholic-only practices.
• It promises no healing, money or outcome. Prayer is not a formula.
• No donation asks, no politics, nothing guilt-driven.

On the first pass, the second check changed 8 of 40 New Year days, 11 of 41 Lent days and 3 of 12 groups of short prayers (a Holy Week reading on the wrong day, verses quoted from other translations, a line that read as a promise).

The voice

The recordings are made with a text-to-speech voice (OpenAI), not a person. The words you hear are the words on the screen.

What it is not

It is not counselling, pastoral care or medical advice, and it is not a substitute for your church. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, US).
