AI and software for charities and foundations

We build AI for nonprofits that have more work than staff: charities, foundations and funds that rely on donors, volunteers and grants. The focus is on removing admin from small teams, with trustees, committees and staff making the decisions about money and people.

Where the work gets stuck.

  • Donor data lives in too many places

    Gifts come in through payment providers, fundraising platforms, events and direct debits, while the CRM holds only part of it. Teams reconcile spreadsheets before they can thank a donor or report income.

  • Grant applications pile up

    Foundations receive applications in varying quality and formats, and each needs checking against criteria before a committee sees it. Charities face the reverse, writing reports for each funder in its own template.

  • Small teams without developers

    Most nonprofits have no in-house developers and depend on a mix of licensed tools and volunteers. New software has to be simple to run and light to maintain.

How we improve non-profit.

Each one is scoped around your systems and rules, and each one keeps a person in charge of the decisions that matter.

  • Donor data integration

    Gifts, mandates and campaign data from payment providers, fundraising platforms and email tools flow into one CRM record per supporter. Fundraisers work from a complete picture and finance reconciles faster.

    Built as data pipelines

  • Grant application review

    Applications and attachments are checked for completeness and summarised against your funding criteria, with open questions listed. The grants officer and committee assess each project and decide on funding.

    Built as document processing

  • Donation administration

    Periodic gift agreements, failed direct debits, address changes and tax receipts are processed from incoming requests and bank files. Staff approve exceptions and supporter-facing messages.

    Built as back-office automation

  • Staff and volunteer knowledge assistant

    Staff and volunteers ask questions about procedures, programmes and past reports and get answers with sources, and can draft funder reports from programme data. A staff member checks every report before it goes out.

    Built as internal copilots

  • Volunteer and beneficiary portals

    Portals where volunteers sign up for shifts and beneficiaries apply for support, connected to your CRM. Coordinators spend less time on phone calls and spreadsheets.

    Built as customer portals

  • AI roadmap for a small organisation

    We look at your processes, data and tools and recommend where AI is worth it, where a licensed tool already covers the need and what to leave alone. The board gets a short plan with effort estimates to discuss.

    Built as AI roadmap

Built around the rules.

What we design for from the first week. Your legal and compliance people keep the final word.

  • GDPR and supporter data

    Donor records can reveal beliefs or health conditions, depending on the cause. We set clear purposes and retention per data type, keep processing in the EU and document the lawful basis for each use.

  • Consent for fundraising contact

    Dutch telecom rules limit fundraising by email and phone to people who gave consent or have an existing relationship. Integrations carry consent status with each record so campaigns respect it.

  • ANBI rules

    Organisations with ANBI status have publication duties, and periodic gifts need a valid written agreement for donors to deduct them. Donation administration tools store agreements and data in a way that supports both.

  • CBF recognition and RJ 650 reporting

    Recognised fundraising organisations report under Guideline 650 and meet CBF standards on accountability. Data pipelines keep income by source and spending by objective traceable for the annual report.

Works with what you run.

If a system has an API, a database, an export or an inbox, we can build on it. These are the ones we meet most.

Where to start.

Donor data integration with one CRM

A build that brings gifts, mandates and consent from your payment and fundraising tools into a single CRM. It removes weekly reconciliation work and gives every later project clean data to build on.
