What SHINE does
Organize. Review. Send to Live.
SHINE keeps Library, the preparation workspace and Live Output in one continuous flow. The operator can organize content, confirm what the audience will see and send it without losing context.
Prepare and review
Open the item, adjust its content and use Preview or Live Output to confirm the audience view before sending.
Send with one action
The dark-blue paper plane is SHINE’s universal Send icon. After sending, the item turns dark pink; LIVE identifies what is currently on air.

How SHINE works
See the complete service, not a list of features.
Bible, songs and Mobile App in one continuous workflow.
Bible and Live
Prepare the passage. Preview the output before sending it.
Search, select and organize verses while Live Output remains visible in the same workspace.
Songs
Follow the song and anticipate what comes next.
Song Flow helps organize lyrics and keep the next section of the presentation ready.
Mobile App
Keep the service Library close, wherever the team is.
Authorized administrators can open the connected Library and send content to the presentation computer through SHINE Remote.
SHINE Bible
An advanced Bible that stays connected to the service.
Find a passage by direct reference, Search, Quick Search or the visual Bible Navigator. Select one verse or a continuous group, then drag it or add it to a Library folder without leaving the reader.
Search and Quick SearchType a reference or find a passage immediately.
Bible NavigatorChoose translation, book, chapter and verse visually.
One verse or a groupSelect consecutive verses and drag them together into Library.
Quick BibleConfirm a reference and send it to the selected output without rebuilding the service.
Your authorized BibleImport SHINE Bible Pack (.zip), USFM (.usfm/.sfm), or OSIS, Zefania and OpenSong XML.
Focus + Shortcut
Focus removes the noise when timing matters.
Focus turns a Bible passage or song into a clean sequence of readable slides. Search stays close, the current and next slides are clear, and the operator can move quickly without losing Live Output.
In timed mode, type a verse number and SHINE sends it after the chosen delay. In key mode, type the number and confirm with Enter—or another configured key. Bypass can jump to a requested Bible verse even when it is outside the currently prepared slide range.
Songs + YouTube
Songs begin with a real match, not a blank page.
Search YouTube and supported open web lyric sources, review the recommendation, compare matches and edit before saving. Streaming depends on YouTube availability and can occasionally be interrupted by the source.
SHINE ecosystem
The presentation computer and Mobile App work as one team.
Authorized administrators can help with the organization Library from the Mobile App. The desktop computer remains the presentation authority while SHINE Remote keeps the connected team in sync.
AdministratorsAuthorized people can assist with the shared organization library and controls.

Updates and startupSettings can check for updates, start SHINE with the computer and keep it running in the tray for connected controls.
