Today, the new Logos subscription has officially launched, replacing Logos 10 as the most powerful and easy-to-use version of Logos ever – not just for pastors and academics, but for lay leaders, too. So, what makes this version of Logos our best yet?

Logos is easier to use than ever

We worked hard to make Logos 10 easier to use, but lots of you on the forums told us you wanted us to go even further, which would make it easier for you to recommend Logos to others. 

A new Get Started Wizard gets you straight into your study, no matter what you want to accomplish, by creating a custom layout based on what you want to accomplish (desktop and web).

The Help Center gives you all the support you need right within the app by bringing together our help manuals, dataset documentation, support pages, tutorial videos and more into a single easy-to-access tool (all platforms).

The Insights Sidebar gives you instant access to your favorite commentaries, study Bibles, and cross-references right inside your Bible, so you can quickly look up information without running a Guide or creating a custom layout (all platforms).

And the new dynamic toolbar makes it easy to find and access Logos’ powerful functions. If you’ve ever hunted around trying to add a parallel Bible, toggle Factbook Tags off, or change the text size, the new toolbar is for you (desktop and web).

Logos uses AI to give quicker access to deeper insights

In Logos 10, we simplified our search syntax – now we’ve completely removed the need for syntax with most queries. With the new Smart Search, you can type short queries using natural English, such as How did Paul die? or What does “sarx” mean in Romans?. Smart Search uses AI to better understand your query and lift the most relevant answers to the top (all platforms).

Even more powerful is Smart Synopsis. Smart Synopsis uses cutting-edge AI to distill the top five search results into a short, easy-to-digest paragraph. Best of all, every sentence has a footnote to show you which page of which book the AI pulled the information from – so there’s no need to blindly trust the AI has got it right (all platforms).

Smart Synopsis

A Summarize tool gives you a summary of any article in any book, helping you digest more information in less time or more quickly determine whether a book is worth reading closely. You can also summarize search results without even opening the book (all platforms).

Logos speeds up the process of creating sermons and Bible studies

Logos now comes with the brand new Bible Study Builder, an easy-to-use but powerful tool that helps you create personalized Bible studies using books in your library. Using Bible Study Builder, you can easily find questions from throughout your library on any passage from the Bible, insert those questions into your study, rearrange them, and then edit them so they’re just right for your small group.

Bible Study Builder

Sermon Builder also got its biggest-ever upgrade with the brand-new Sermon Assistant. Sermon Assistant is an AI-powered tool that can help your messages have even more impact. Sermon Assistant suggests possible outlines, illustrations, applications, or questions to adapt and use in your message. Sermon Assistant isn’t designed to write your sermons for you (no one wants a robot in the pulpit), but it will help you get through writer’s block by providing suggestions and ideas when you get stuck.

Logos has a much-improved Factbook

Factbook has a significant upgrade and a lovely new look. It can now help mine the depths of any biblical passage, interactively showing the people, places, things, and events mentioned and even what different characters said to one another. The new lens bar also lets you look at a topic from different perspectives—whether that’s a biblical perspective or a theological one.

Logos subscriptions get better all the time

Perhaps the best feature of the new version of Logos is that it gets better all the time. There’s no more waiting for two years to get improvements. Instead, every few months, we’ll add new or improved features to ensure Logos continues to equip you to study God’s Word.

That’s because the new version of Logos is available exclusively as a subscription. There are three subscription tiers:

  • Logos Premium for small group leaders or anyone interested in deep Bible study.
  • Logos Pro for pastors and ministry leaders who preach regularly.
  • Logos Max for academic-level research and sermon prep.

Each tier comes with a starter collection of books and all the features you need for that purpose. If you already own Logos 10, prices start from just $6.99/month for Logos Premium or less than $135 for two years upfront. 

All new libraries, exclusively for subscribers

But of course, Logos isn’t just about features; it’s about that compelling combination of fantastic features and brilliant books. The new features make it easier than ever to find and understand great content, so there’s never been a better time to expand your library.

We have twenty-two brand-new libraries for you to choose from, each providing you with the best modern and ancient wisdom on the bible and theology. As well as our standard track libraries, there are also three brand new tracks of libraries aimed at lay leaders, preachers, and students/academics. Libraries are yours to keep forever, and prices start from just $39.99.

During this special launch period, you can get 25% off your first purchase of any new libraries, and subscribers also qualify for a 5% discount on any books you buy, for a total discount of 30% off your first purchase.
