Live sermon notes, written as it is preached
The points go on slides while the preacher is still speaking. TajiCast listens to the sermon, and a set of notes builds through the message instead of waiting for the end of it — ready to put on the screen, hand out, or keep.

Putting the preacher's points on screen has always meant someone typing them in the booth, a sentence behind and guessing at the next one. TajiCast is already transcribing the service, so it can do the reading: every few minutes it takes what has just been said and writes the next point into a deck. By the end of the sermon the notes are written, and nobody typed them.
One press to start
Press Start live notes and it begins. No design to pick first, no key to paste in — it opens in its default look and writes into a new deck named for the day.
Start it late, catch up
Realise twenty minutes in that it is not running? Start it then and it reads everything said in that session so far, writes the notes for it, and carries on from where the preacher is.
Change the look mid-sermon
Ten designs, changeable at any point — including part-way through a message. Slides already written keep the design they were made with.
Nothing goes up by itself
The slides build in the deck, not on the wall. They reach the congregation only when you choose Show, so a half-finished point is never on screen.
How it runs during a service
Start it before transcription and it waits, then begins the moment transcription does — it says so on screen rather than looking broken. From there it writes a set every two and a half minutes by default, which a church watching what it spends can stretch to five or ten. Generate now writes the next set immediately when the preacher has just made a point worth catching.
The deck is an ordinary presentation when the service ends: edit the slides, show them again next week, or export them. And because it is the same transcript underneath, you can still turn the whole service into a full set of written sermon notes afterwards.
Questions
How is this different from AI sermon notes?
AI sermon notes are written after the service, from the finished transcript, as a document to read, edit and publish. Live sermon notes are written during the service, onto slides, so the points can go on the screen while the message is being preached. Both come from the same transcription, and a church can use either or both.
Does it put the notes on screen automatically?
No, and deliberately. The slides build in a deck where only the operator sees them, and go to the congregation only when you choose Show. A model writing straight to the wall is not something a service should rely on.
Can I start it after the sermon has begun?
Yes. It reads back over everything transcribed in that session, so a sermon twenty minutes old still gets notes for its first twenty minutes, then continues live.
Does it need the internet?
Yes, for the notes themselves — TajiCast's own service writes them, so there is no provider to choose and no key to paste in. The transcription that feeds them can run entirely on your own computer.
What does it cost?
Live sermon notes are part of Pro, $5 a month, and every new account starts with seven days of it — enough to run a real Sunday through before deciding. The rest of the app — scripture, verse detection, songs and sets — is on the free plan, which stays free.
