Say it. Watch the cue follow.

Type what someone on stage would say — a line of a hymn, a Bible reference, “next slide” — and the right cue goes live, exactly the way it does in a real service.

Migrating from ProPresenter, made easy.

The import wizard finds your ProPresenter library — or takes a folder you drop on it — shows you what's coming across, imports it, and ends with a summary. Playlist folders, playlist order and smart playlists come with it, and so do the Media and Audio bins. A file that can't be found keeps its place, marked missing.

Capabilities

What ACE actually does

On-device by default, built for the kind of pressure where mistakes are visible.

Hears the room

Point a microphone at the stage and ACE starts listening. No configuration — it picks up what's being sung or spoken and keeps the right content on screen.

Finds the right slide

Songs, scripture, conference talks — matched against your library the moment they happen. No clicking to advance.

Drives your screens

Audience projector, stage screens that each show their own layout, and a live operator preview — plus NDI per screen, SDI through a Blackmagic card and Syphon on the Mac. All from one window on your Mac or PC.

Stays live all service

Designed to run for hours without a restart. Handles the unpredictable moments — speaker goes off-script, song order changes last minute, a slide gets skipped.

Voice commands

“Next slide”, “clear screen”, “Bible mode”. Speak the command, keep your hands on other things.

Control from your phone

The ACE Remote app connects to your Mac or PC over Wi-Fi. Advance slides, blank the screen, or jump to any slide from anywhere in the room — no clicker required.

Always up to date

New versions install in the background and are ready next time you launch — nothing interrupts a live service.

Lower thirds

Names, lyrics and Bible verses as a bar along the bottom — the look a livestream or camera feed needs. Static or animated designs, or make your own, on every output.

A media bin that keeps up

Folders, playlists and smart playlists for pictures, video and audio. Whatever is on screen — picture, song slide, verse — carries a red LIVE mark.

Scripture, verse by verse

Arrow keys step through a reading one verse at a time and add each verse to the service in order. Compare a verse across up to four versions side by side.

Songs, found and credited

Search for a line the congregation sings to find the song. Import from SongSelect with writers and CCLI number, show the credit line, and export your CCLI usage report.

See it run

The whole service, in one window.

Library, stage output, themes, and program — everything an operator touches during a live service, built native for Mac and Windows.

Stage output

Follows the song, line by line.

ACE hears the band and pushes the current lyric to the audience screen the moment it lands — with the next line staged and a live confidence read, so you always know what it's about to do.

Looks & themes

Every look, one click.

Build a Worship look and a Sermon look, then switch the whole presentation style — background, fonts, which layers are on — with a single click, per screen.

Theme editor

Design it exactly your way.

Full control over type, color, and background media per slide object — edit lyrics, scripture, and announcements live while the service runs.

Take the tour

Every control, explained.

The real console, mid-service. Step through it — and where there's a clip, watch that feature run.

Start listening

One button. ACE listens to the room through your mic — on-device by default — and the live transcript starts on the right. Detection Settings decide who's in control, including voice commands for the speaker.

What you get

The whole service, covered.

From the first song to the closing word — ACE keeps the right content on screen without the team having to manage slides.

Songs

The lyrics advance on their own

ACE listens to the music and follows along verse by verse. The right lyrics reach the audience screen the moment the team sings them — no operator needed to click forward.

Scripture

Bible references appear as they're spoken

When a preacher says "turn to John 3:16", ACE recognises the reference and brings up the passage. The operator never has to type anything.

Service plan

Build the order of service. Run it live.

Drag songs, scripture, announcements, and media into a plan. Activate it, hit Go, and ACE follows your sequence — ready to jump ahead or hold back whenever the service changes.

Stage monitor

The team sees what's coming next

A dedicated stage output shows the current slide, the next cue, and a live read on what ACE is listening to. The team knows what's on the audience screen without needing to look.

Nine languages

The whole app, in your language.

Not a translated menu bar with English underneath — every panel, setting and message, on Mac and Windows alike. Arabic reads right to left, with the entire layout mirrored.

  • EnglishEnglish
  • EspañolSpanish
  • FrançaisFrench
  • DeutschGerman
  • PortuguêsPortuguese
  • РусскийRussian
  • 한국어Korean
  • 简体中文Chinese (Simplified)
  • العربيةArabic

Choose yours in Settings — it does not have to match your computer’s language. Detection understands more languages still, including ones the interface is not yet translated into.

ACE Remote

Control from anywhere in the room.

The ACE Remote app connects to your Mac or PC over Wi-Fi. No setup beyond your local network — open the app, connect, and you have full control from your phone.

  • Next, previous, and blank from your pocket
  • See the current cue and what's coming next
  • Search your song and Bible library on-the-fly
