Fundraising systems should exist to keep engagement up, but many fundraisers know that they really act as static metrics on performance. At Gravyty, we believe those expensive systems that measure performance and provide ticklers for gift officers in hopes of improving performance only get you so far.

In the age of Artificial Intelligence (AI), fundraising organizations have a new path to expand the workforce and begin seeing the returns of increased efficiency, faster than previously thought possible.

For most organizations, especially those with an advancement research department, limited fundraiser capacity leaves a large (and often growing) pool of donor prospects who have the capacity to give but have not been assigned to a fundraiser’s portfolio.
