Non-profits and foundations get verified outcome measurement, fund and grant accounting sized for a lean team, and donor and board reporting that all draws on the same evidence - so a program's real impact and its funder report are never two different stories.
Most program teams can report how many people a project reached. Far fewer can say, credibly, how much of that outcome the program actually caused.
Program impact figures are often self-reported, with no independent verification behind the numbers a funder sees.
Gross outcomes rarely get adjusted for what would have happened anyway, overstating what a program actually achieved.
Fund and grant accounting often lives in a separate system from program outcomes, with no shared record between them.
Each donor wants its own format, consuming weeks of program staff time every reporting cycle for the same underlying data.
Boards and donors increasingly expect ESG-style reporting, without the resourcing an enterprise sustainability function would have.
Lean teams often manage fund and grant accounting without dedicated finance staff or enterprise-grade systems.
Most non-profits and foundations start with this core bundle - verified outcome measurement, fund and grant accounting, and donor-ready sustainability reporting, all reading from the same data.
Verified outcome measurement - attributed, checked against counterfactual, and reported in the format each funder actually needs.
Explore Impact ManagementLightweight fund and grant accounting, sized for a lean team - no dedicated finance department required.
Donor and board-ready sustainability reporting, scaled to what a lean team can realistically maintain.
For foundations funding climate-exposed programs, a simplified view of physical and transition risk across program sites.
Traceability for in-kind donations, program supplies and implementation partners - so a claim about where goods or funds ended up is verifiable, not just reported.

Real-time outcome tracking that flags an underperforming site early enough to actually course-correct.
Grant compliance and milestone tracking that lives on the same record as the program outcomes it's meant to fund.
A consolidated, board-level view of outcomes across every program, without a manual roll-up before each meeting.
A defensible, verified impact story for prospective funders - not just the most compelling anecdote available.
Counterfactual and attribution modelling built into the platform, rather than a bespoke evaluation contracted out each time.
Verified numbers to put in a donor report or an annual review, without over-claiming what the program achieved.
An illustrative example of the foundation bundle in practice.
Challenge: Twelve different funders each required their own report format from the same underlying literacy program data, consuming weeks of program staff time every quarter.
Moving fund accounting and program outcomes onto the same record let the foundation generate all 12 funder-specific reports automatically - while independent attribution modelling gave the board a more defensible, if more modest, view of the program's real impact.
Bring your program data - or start from a theory of change. Walk away with a clear view of what's genuinely attributable, and how it reports to every funder.
