The Paraclete Platform

Discipleship, finally measurable.

A technology tool for the Holy Spirit.

Most churches can measure only “nickels and noses.” Paraclete makes the things that actually predict spiritual growth visible — ethically, anonymously, and grounded in Scripture.

Spiritual growth, measured and nurtured

Know where your people are. Help them take the next step.

Every church is called to make disciples, yet almost none can measure whether it’s happening. Paraclete measures discipleship across your congregation and turns what it finds into a clear next step for each person.

Members see their own growth steps. Leaders see anonymized patterns across campuses and ministries, so they know where to invest. It all lives in one workspace with one sign-in.

Sample data shown. Church-level numbers are anonymized, and groups below the minimum size are never displayed.

Connected applications, grouped by who uses them

Each is built on Pastor Peter Haas’s field-tested model — the 3 Catalysts, the discipleship funnel and the Five Cliffs — and powered by one shared knowledge engine of your church’s sermons and blog posts.

Members

Share, ask, grow

  • The Discipleship Survey. A 5-minute self-assessment that places each person on the funnel and gives them a personal roadmap of growth steps drawn from their results.
  • Sermon Chat. Ask a question and get an answer from your church’s own sermons and blog posts, with citations. It can also be added to your church’s main website, so visitors and members can ask it too.
Volunteers, staff & leaders

Coach and develop

  • Five Cliffs Diagnostic. Tells a ministry leader exactly why volunteers are disengaging, with pastoral fixes.
  • Staff Coach. An internal coaching assistant plus a leader-development tracker for emerging leaders.
  • Hard Conversations. Prep a tough staff conversation — tailored to both personalities (Myers-Briggs and Enneagram today, and any number of other personality tests can be added) and grounded in your pastor’s teaching — then rehearse it.
  • Leader Development Coach. A 12-week guided track that coaches a leader through weekly scenarios, with milestone digests for their human mentor.
Pastors & executive team

See the whole church

  • Executive Dashboard. Five live gauges of church health, with trends over time.
  • Follow-Up Shepherd. Three agents that turn the suite’s signals into weekly briefs, early-warning alerts and retention plans — every one a draft until a human acts.
Planting & missions

Launch and send

  • Campus-Launch Playbook. An interactive 5-phase playbook that guides a campus or church plant from foundation to launch and beyond.
  • Missions Field Guide. Culturally-tuned apologetics briefs for the mission field, grounded in your pastor’s teaching and checked against the corpus.

Built to be trusted

Pastors rightly ask hard questions about data. These are the answers.

Anonymous by design

Results roll up as anonymized signals. Groups below a minimum size are never shown, and there is no per-person identifier to leak.

Your church, your voice

Church name, pastor, campuses and prompts are settings, not hard-coded text. The assistant answers from your sermons and blog posts.

Reads your library

One always-fresh library of sermons and teaching sits at the center, so answers and recommendations stay current.

First deployment

Running today at Substance Church.

Paraclete grew out of the discipleship model Pastor Peter Haas teaches at Substance Church. Substance is the first church to run it, on its own sermons, campuses and staff.

Every demo on this site runs on that real deployment.

How to get started

No big-bang rollout. Start where it hurts most.

See it

Try the live demo, or book a walkthrough and we’ll show it with your church’s questions in mind.

Make it yours

We load your sermons and teaching and set your church’s name, campuses and voice.

Start with one tool

Most churches begin with the volunteer diagnostic or the discipleship survey, then add the rest as they need it.
