A ProdLink alternative for live church production dashboards.
Is MxU/ProdLink too much for your team?
ProdLink and MxU are built to help church production teams stay organized, trained, and ready. Relay by OnDeck Apps is built for a different part of the workflow: the live service itself.
Relay gives your team a customizable Mac dashboard for the tools and information your booth needs in real time, including Planning Center, ProPresenter, audio consoles, wireless systems, timers, web views, and automation.
Built for the booth, not just the plan
Church production teams already juggle a lot on Sundays. Service flow, lyrics, cues, comms, audio, wireless, livestream status, countdowns, and last-minute changes all compete for attention.
Relay helps bring the most important production information into one focused view so your team can spend less time switching between apps and more time staying locked into the service.
What Relay helps your team see
Planning Center service information
ProPresenter production context
Audio console status and metering
Supported wireless microphone systems
Battery, RF, frequency, and audio status where supported
Clocks, timers, and countdowns
Web views for livestream or production tools
Custom dashboards for FOH, broadcast, producers, and volunteers
Automation triggers using MIDI, OSC, HTTP, timers, and app state
How Relay compares to MxU/ProdLink
ProdLink and MxU are strong choices for team management, training, checklists, and production planning.
Relay is the better fit when your biggest need is live visibility during rehearsals and services. It is not trying to replace your whole team training system. It gives your booth a clear dashboard layer for the production systems you already use.
If MxU helps your team prepare, Relay helps your team execute.
A practical option for growing production teams
Relay is designed for churches that want a flexible production dashboard without taking on a large platform commitment. Start with a simple dashboard, connect the tools your team already uses, and expand as your workflow grows.
Whether you are running FOH, broadcast, ProPresenter, wireless, or service production, Relay helps keep the live production picture in front of your team.
