Software that stretches
your mission budget, not your patience.
We build donor management, volunteer coordination, grant tracking and reporting software for nonprofits — priced and scoped for mission budgets, not enterprise ones. Senior engineers, fixed scope, software your team can actually afford to maintain.

Most nonprofit software
problems aren't nonprofit problems — they're enterprise software priced for enterprise budgets.
Most “we can’t afford good software” situations happen because nonprofits get quoted the same scope and price as a for-profit enterprise client, for a fraction of the budget and IT staff. Before we recommend anything, we scope to what your team can actually run and afford long-term — including honestly recommending an off-the-shelf nonprofit tool when it genuinely fits better than a custom build.

Capabilities & stack
Boring tech that
ships on time.
We build with cost-conscious, proven tools — not a fancy stack that’s expensive to host and hard for a small IT team to maintain after we’re gone.
How we pick
01
Scope to your real budget and team
Before we design anything, we understand what you can actually afford to build and, just as importantly, maintain afterward with limited IT staff.
02
Recommend buy before build, honestly
Many nonprofit needs are well served by existing tools (donor CRMs, volunteer platforms) — we recommend those first and only build custom where there’s a genuine gap.
03
Design for handover to non-technical staff
Nonprofits often don’t have dedicated developers — we build with documentation and interfaces your program staff can actually use and maintain.
04
Keep hosting and licensing costs low
Infrastructure choices favor low ongoing cost over cutting-edge — because a nonprofit’s budget for hosting next year matters as much as this year’s build cost.

FAQ
The questions
everyone asks before kickoff.
Not sure if custom software makes sense for your budget? Book a 30-min call with a senior engineer.
Can we actually afford custom software as a nonprofit?
Sometimes yes, sometimes an existing nonprofit tool is the better answer — we scope honestly to your real budget first, and recommend buying off-the-shelf when it genuinely serves you better than a custom build.
Do you offer nonprofit pricing, or do we pay the same as a for-profit client?
We scope projects to nonprofit budgets and team sizes specifically — the goal is software you can actually afford to build and maintain, not a discount on enterprise-scale scope.
We don't have any in-house developers — can we still maintain the software after launch?
Yes — we build with your team’s actual technical capacity in mind, with documentation and interfaces designed for non-technical program staff, not just developers.
Should we use an existing donor management platform (like Bloomerang) or build our own?
For most donor management needs, an existing platform is the better and cheaper choice — we only recommend custom donor systems when your organization’s process genuinely doesn’t fit what’s available off-the-shelf.
Can you help us track grant requirements and reporting deadlines?
Yes — grant tracking and outcome reporting systems are one of our common nonprofit builds, designed around what funders actually require you to report.
Can you build a donation page or website that actually converts visitors into donors?
Yes — we design donation flows and nonprofit websites specifically for conversion, not just information, since a confusing donation page costs you real gifts.
Are there technology grants or discounts we should know about before we start?
Many nonprofits qualify for technology credits and discounts from Microsoft, Google and other providers — we help you identify and apply these where relevant, since they can meaningfully reduce your total cost.
Who owns the software after it's built?
You own it, fully — source code, data and documentation, with no vendor lock-in, so your organization isn’t dependent on us or any other vendor to keep running.
