Stop Chasing Speakers for Every Event
Secure high-impact speakers for your next charitable event in minutes, not days.
Coordinating speaker invitations eats up your time with endless emails, research, and follow-ups. You’re constantly juggling databases, drafting outreach, and tracking responses, only to start over for the next event.
A Speaker Outreach Agent for Fundraisers is an AI-powered agent that helps fundraisers secure speakers for events by drafting outreach, researching candidates, and tracking responses, enabling faster event planning.

Finding and securing the right speakers for each event requires hours of research, personalized outreach, and meticulous follow-up.
