About Freely Given
We believe that technology should bring people closer to Scripture, not further from it.
Our Mission
Freely Given exists to make thoughtful, AI-powered Bible study accessible to everyone — regardless of their background, experience, or budget. We believe that engaging with Scripture should be easy to start, rewarding to sustain, and affordable for all.
Too many people feel intimidated by the Bible's depth and complexity, unsure where to begin or how to make sense of ancient texts in a modern world. And too many digital tools that could help are priced out of reach for everyday believers. We're here to change that.
Our Story
Freely Given started with a simple frustration: existing AI Bible apps were charging $28 or more per month. That's a meaningful expense for most people — especially students, young families, and anyone living on a tight budget. It felt wrong that access to a tool for studying God's Word came with such a steep price tag.
We knew there had to be a better way. So we built Freely Given with a different philosophy: offer a generous free tier that's genuinely useful, and price Premium features at a level that respects people's wallets. At $4.99/mo, Freely Given Premium is a fraction of what competitors charge — because we believe affordability and quality aren't mutually exclusive.
We launched with a focus on the features that matter most: reliable AI-powered answers grounded in Scripture, daily devotionals that connect the Bible to real life, structured reading plans to build consistency, and Focus Mode for those who want dedicated, distraction-free time in the Word.
Our Values
Scripture First
Every feature we build starts with the Bible. AI is a tool to help people engage with Scripture — it never replaces it. Our answers always point back to the text, with references you can look up and verify for yourself.
Accessibility
We believe Bible study tools should be available to everyone. That's why we offer a meaningful free plan and keep our Premium pricing honest and affordable. No paywalls on basic Scripture access, ever.
Integrity
We're transparent about what our app can and can't do. AI-generated content is a starting point for reflection and study, not a replacement for pastoral counsel, community, or personal prayer. We say so clearly and often.
Respect for Privacy
Your faith journey is personal. We collect only the data we need to make the app work, we never sell your information, and we give you full control over your account and data. Read our Privacy Policy for the full details.
Continuous Improvement
We're always listening to our users and working to make Freely Given better. New features, better AI responses, smoother experiences — we ship improvements regularly because your time in the Word deserves the best tools we can build.
Community
Freely Given is built by people of faith, for people of faith. We take feedback seriously, respond to support requests personally, and treat every user as a member of the family.
The Team
