The Operational Gap

Your CRM knows everything.
Your team works around it.

Critical work happens between systems — in inboxes, spreadsheets, and manual follow-up queues that no one owns. Three failures repeat constantly in every advancement office.

01
Gifts processed. Receipts delayed.
Finance needs to approve it. Someone remembers the receipt — eventually. Non-cash contributions sit waiting for a Form 8283 nobody generated. Recurring gifts renew without a notification.
GiftSentry closes this →
End-to-end receipt workflow with KYC gating, policy enforcement, and automated Form 8283 prefill generation.
02
Follow-ups live in email.
Employer match verification. Pledge reminders. Donor research tasks. Stewardship handoffs. All of it fragmented across inboxes. No ownership. No audit trail. Work gets lost.
GiftSentry closes this →
Unified task system across workflows, staff, and AI agents — with assignment, completion tracking, and notifications.
03
Segments exist. Activation stalls.
The LYBUNT list was built three months ago. Launching a campaign requires three people, two tools, and a connector you're not sure still works. By then the moment has passed.
GiftSentry closes this →
Rule-based segments with direct Meta and Google audience sync — governance attestation built in from day one.

How It Works

The complete gift lifecycle, closed.

01
Donor gives online
Branded, cause-specific giving pages process gifts through Stripe. Webhooks finalize the transaction idempotently — no manual reconciliation, no dropped records.
02
Compliance loop activates automatically
Receipt queued under your policy. Non-cash contributions trigger Form 8283 prefill. Employer matches create a verified task queue. All without a single manual step.
03
Stewardship workflows execute
Thank-you sequences, impact reports, renewal reminders — automated via the workflow studio. Human tasks route to the right staff. Email replies resume waiting workflows.
04
Intelligence compounds
Donor scoring updates. Segments recalculate. AI research workflows surface capacity signals. The next gift opportunity is already being prepared.
