About GiftSentry

Built by operators who understand the gap.

GiftSentry grew out of EvaNeT — a production-ready multi-tenant SaaS platform built from scratch by a two-person founding team. The advancement vertical emerged from a simple observation: the operational gap between gift and stewardship costs advancement offices millions in uncaptured recurring revenue and preventable compliance failures.

The Origin

A platform built before the pitch.

Most software companies pitch a product and then build it. GiftSentry is the opposite. The EvaNeT platform — Next.js 15, React 19, TypeScript, tRPC, PostgreSQL, Docker Compose — was production-ready before the first advancement prospect conversation happened.

That matters for institutions with real compliance obligations and IT governance requirements. The platform isn't a prototype dressed in a demo. It's a deployed, monitored, multi-tenant system that has been running in production — with a 5-minute health probe cycle, incident alerting, and multi-environment isolation.

What We Believe

Three principles that drive every decision.

01
Consulting-first beats software-first
Selling expertise and assessment before platform reduces prospect risk and generates near-term trust. We're happy to talk through your challenges before you ever see a demo.
02
Moat comes from operational embeddedness
High switching costs come from deep integration into client workflows — not from proprietary technology alone. We build for that depth from day one.
03
No pitch. Just proof.
The production-ready platform is evidence of execution capability. We don't ask you to believe a roadmap. We show you what's running today and let the work speak.
"
We're not building an advancement tool. We're building the operational infrastructure that makes every gift count — from the moment Stripe confirms the transaction to the moment the board sees the report.
