Prepare at home, together

One live service the whole team shares. Everyone adds their part from wherever they are, whenever suits them.

Anyone can edit, any time

The whole team works on the same service from wherever they are. One adds the songs, another fixes a typo, the pastor drops in the sermon slides. Every change is live for everyone.

Guests upload their own slides

Send a link instead of chasing files. Their PowerPoint, PDF or Canva files shows up in the service directly ready to show. They don't need an account.

Everything connects over Wi-Fi. No cable runs, capture cards or converters. Put it on a TV →

Works with software you already use

Keep planning where you plan and designing where you design. It all comes together in one live service, with nothing to rebuild.

Built for volunteers, not broadcast studios

Most presentation software assumes one trained operator on one expensive computer at the back. Small churches run on volunteers, borrowed laptops and whoever turned up this week. We built for that.

Free and open source

AGPL 3.0, with no per-seat subscription to pay. Read the code, self-host it, and it can never be taken away from you.

Runs in any browser

Nothing to install and no dedicated machine at the front. Mac, Windows, Linux, a tablet, or a TV stick all work the same.

Control it from a phone

Your worship leader can advance lyrics from the stage using the browser they already have. No remote app to install.

Real-time collaboration

Several people can run the same screen at once. Someone fixes a typo from the back row while the front advances slides.

Google Slides, synced

Build announcements and sermon slides where your team already works, then sync them straight onto the screen.

Lyrics formatted by AI

Paste in a song and have it split into slides in an instant, so moving your existing library over is quick.

2,300+ Bible translations

Put scripture on the screen in the translation your church actually reads, or upload your own.

No laptop required

Plug in a Fire TV Stick, Chromecast, or Android TV device and present straight to the TV. It doubles as signage midweek.

Impacting ministries globally

Churches and youth ministries run their services on TheOpenPresenter every week

TheOpenPresenter used in a church setting

I discovered TheOpenPresenter at just the right time. I was managing production for “Fastbreak,” a High School Ministry Winter Retreat with our Portland Metro High School Ministry. After encountering significant display connection and integration issues with other tools on our first night, I scrambled to find an alternative. That evening, I discovered TheOpenPresenter.

Within a short time, I was able to build a skeleton for the remaining weekend sessions, import and format song lyrics, and generate scripture slides for our speakers. The standout feature was the ability to run the presentation from a cell phone, allowing me to hand off the controls easily and stay available for students.

TheOpenPresenter has now become my go-to presentation tool for both our High School and Middle School ministries. It is user-friendly, flexible, and an excellent collaborative tool. It keeps our dynamic programs polished, allowing everyone to focus entirely on the content. Thank you to the dedicated community of developers contributing to this application. It is truly a gift.
