AI FOR FUNDRAISING

Put an AI teammate to work on your fundraising.

You do not need a data team to fundraise smarter. Otto, the AI built into DonorDock, drafts your donor messages, surfaces who needs attention, and turns your notes into next steps so your small team moves like a big one.

BY THE NUMBERS

Your time should go to donors, not busywork.

Lean fundraising teams lose hours to admin and tool-switching. AI gives that time back by handling the repetitive work so you can focus on relationships. (Sources: Asana Anatomy of Work, Nonprofit Tech for Good.)

Walk into every ask already prepared.

Otto reads each donor's full history, including notes, and surfaces what matters: giving patterns, recent activity, and the right next move. You get a clear, human summary instead of digging through notes.

THE SHIFT

From overwhelmed to one step ahead.

Old way

Fundraising Without AI

  • Hours spent prepping for a single donor meeting
  • At-risk donors lapse before anyone notices
  • Every thank-you written from a blank page
  • Insights buried in notes no one has time to read
VS
New way

With DonorDock and Otto

  • Donor summaries ready before every conversation
  • Smart Nudges flag who needs attention now
  • First-draft messages written in your voice
  • Your notes turned into clear next steps
