What is Subsplash?

Subsplash is turning its church dashboard from a record of activity into something that acts.

Subsplash runs a broad church-operations platform — giving, people, events, groups, media and now workflows — and the last quarter has been about layering analysis and automation over that data. Trends AI landed in March as a chart-and-dashboard layer with AI analysis; People Assistant followed in May with natural-language filtering of the congregation; Workflows left beta in July with step-triggered email included for Subsplash One clients. Around those, the window is steady administrative work: group member limits, dashboard registration, an Events Manager role.

What is Trumpia?

Trumpia ships SMS explainers weekly and product notes never.

Every entry in this window is educational or promotional: emoji meanings, a KPI list, a drip-campaign definition, opt-in psychology, an RCS-to-SMS how-to, and a Forbes mention. There is no release note, version number, or feature announcement anywhere in the feed.

Subsplash vs Trumpia: editorial side-by-side

S6.3

Subsplash is turning its church dashboard from a record of activity into something that acts.

◆ Current state

Subsplash runs a broad church-operations platform — giving, people, events, groups, media and now workflows — and the last quarter has been about layering analysis and automation over that data. Trends AI landed in March as a chart-and-dashboard layer with AI analysis; People Assistant followed in May with natural-language filtering of the congregation; Workflows left beta in July with step-triggered email included for Subsplash One clients. Around those, the window is steady administrative work: group member limits, dashboard registration, an Events Manager role.

◆ Where it's heading

Two arcs are converging. One makes the data answerable without a spreadsheet or a filter builder; the other makes the platform take action on it, starting with email at a workflow step. Bundling Workflows into Subsplash One instead of pricing it separately says the automation is meant to be table stakes for the top tier and a reason to climb into it — and the AI features carry the same 'talk to your CSM' gate. The administrative releases are the tell that this is a platform serving operators, not enthusiasts.

◆ Prediction

Email is the only action a workflow step can currently take, and Subsplash already owns the church's app and its messaging surfaces — push or SMS from a workflow step is the near-term extension, alongside pointing People Assistant's plain-language filters at who enters a workflow in the first place.

5.0

Trumpia ships SMS explainers weekly and product notes never.

◆ Current state

Every entry in this window is educational or promotional: emoji meanings, a KPI list, a drip-campaign definition, opt-in psychology, an RCS-to-SMS how-to, and a Forbes mention. There is no release note, version number, or feature announcement anywhere in the feed.

◆ Where it's heading

This is a top-of-funnel SEO program rather than a changelog, so it carries almost no signal about where the product is going. The mild topical drift is toward RCS and toward consent and compliance, which is where SMS vendors currently face the most pressure, but nothing here shows what Trumpia is building in response.

◆ Prediction

Expect the same cadence of definitional SMS posts to continue. Nothing in these entries supports a prediction about the product itself — that would need a source other than this feed.
