Nonprofits do not lose momentum because they lack relationships. They lose it when follow-up breaks.

Donor notes live in one place. Gifts in another. Sponsorships in a workaround. Grant deadlines in a spreadsheet. Event pledges in someone's inbox. AI tools can draft text, but they cannot help if they do not understand the actual relationship history.

Donor follow-up gets missed

The next touch lives in someone’s head until it quietly goes undone.

Sponsorship updates take too long

Sponsor questions wait on field stories scattered across inboxes.

Grant reports depend on scattered notes

Outcomes live in documents the deadline cannot find.

Event pledges fall through the cracks

The gala ends and the open pledges never get the call.

Board asks lack context

Intro requests go out without the relationship history behind them.

Too much manual work

Development teams carry the follow-up tracker by hand.

One CRM. One work graph. One place for fundraising to move.

Gratona brings your donor records, fundraising workflows, sponsorship relationships, communications, tasks, reports, and AI assistance into one connected platform.

Records

Donors, households, gifts, sponsorships, grants, events, campaigns, recipients, notes, documents, and communication history.

Workflows

Tasks, assignments, stewardship coverage, journeys, reports, approvals, reminders, and next steps.

AI

Aida helps summarize context, draft follow-ups, prepare reports, recommend next actions, and keep every output source-backed and reviewed.

Replace your scattered stack with one AI-ready platform.

Meet Aida

Meet Aida, your AI development teammate.

Aida helps your team turn trusted donor and fundraising context into reviewed work: draft follow-ups, prepare reports, surface relationship risks, summarize donor history, and suggest the next best action.

  • Nothing sends without approval.
  • Every recommendation includes source context.
  • Every action can be reviewed, edited, approved, and logged.

Every action runs the same reviewed loop.

Capture to outcome, with human review on anything sensitive.

  • Capture the moment
  • Resolve the relationship

Prepare

  • Attach source context
  • Create an owned work item
  • Prepare the next step

Check

  • Flag stale data and missing inputs

Human review

Complete

  • Complete the approved step
  • Log the outcome
  • Learn

The loop repeats with what Aida learned from your team's edits.

The architecture

The moat is the data Aida can stand on.

Gratona is not a chat box bolted onto a CRM. Donors, gifts, sponsorships, campaigns, events, grants, communications, tasks, documents, and engagement live on one connected record. That gives AI teammates the context, permissions, audit trail, and review workflows they need to help safely.

See the architecture
  • One donor record across fundraising and sponsorships
  • One audit trail across modules
  • Source-backed AI recommendations
  • Human-in-the-loop approvals
  • Modules extend the graph instead of creating new silos
  • Multi-entity and multi-program reporting
Reporting

Send the right report at the right time.

Giving, retention, program coverage, and donor health compose across the same record. Pull a board-ready view without merging a single spreadsheet.
