The problem

Four out of five first-time donors never give again

When gift officer capacity maxes out, stewardship drops off — and donors notice Generic acknowledgment emails, delayed impact reports, and inconsistent communication erode the relationships your team spent years building. Keeping a donor costs a fraction of what it takes to win a new one, yet most advancement offices can’t steward at scale. The reason is capacity, not effort: 36% of advancement offices have less than half a person on stewardship.

What’s Coming

The full post-gift donor experience — for every donor and every fund, not just scholarships. Automated, personalized, built for your whole file.

Personalized donor portals

Each donor sees their own impact. Portals are tailored to the donor’s interests, giving history, and the students their funds support. Clean design. Real outcomes.

Impact stories from real data

Personalized impact narratives generated from your actual fund and outcome data, not templates filled in by hand. On time, every time — drafts are generated from real award and student data, reviewed by your team before they go out.

Real-time donor insights & Recognition

See engagement as it happens. Track which donors are opening reports, clicking through, and ready for the next conversation. Surface the next best touch.

Engagement History & Tracking

Every touchpoint — emails opened, reports viewed, events attended — logged automatically. Gift officers walk into every conversation with full context.

Interface

Portals built for donors, not administrators

Portals designed for the people using them. Donors don’t navigate enterprise interfaces. They see the impact, fast. Your team configures it, but the donor never sees the back-end.
