AI Donor Research Tool for Fundraising

Let your AI agent handle donor profiling, trend analysis, and custom reports—so you can focus on building relationships, not wrangling data.

You spend hours in Excel, Blackbaud, and Google Sheets hunting for donor details and updating prospect lists. As a fundraising manager, you’re stuck copying data between systems, missing critical insights, and scrambling before meetings. The manual grind means lost time and missed gifts.

An AI agent that builds donor profiles, analyzes giving patterns, and creates actionable reports for fundraising managers using your CRM and donor databases.

The hidden cost

What this is really costing you

In nonprofit fundraising, managers and development officers often waste 2.5 to 3 hours each week pulling donor information from Blackbaud or Salesforce, updating spreadsheets, and manually ranking prospects. This repetitive work delays outreach and leaves gaps in your understanding of key supporters. Without up-to-date profiles, you risk walking into meetings unprepared and missing signals from high-potential donors.

Time wasted

2.5-3 hrs/week

Every week, burned on work an AI agent handles in minutes.

Money lost

$6,500-$7,800/year

In salary, missed revenue, and operational drag — annually.

If you keep ignoring it

Continue this way and you’ll miss major gifts, lose track of donor intent, and fall short of fundraising targets. Outdated data can lead to embarrassing meetings and lost trust with your board.
