Fred for charities & foundations.

Answer supporters around the clock, an AI agent that shares your mission and routes the gift, and never takes a card, promises a tax deduction, or shares a donor’s name.

Inspire the gift. Never take the card.

A supporter wants to know what you do, how to give, and whether their gift is deductible. Fred answers the general questions, captures the intent, and routes your development team, while card details, tax promises, and donor records stay protected and off-limits.

What Fred does

  • Answers mission, program, and giving questions
  • Captures donation and volunteer intent, 24/7
  • Routes supporters to your development team
  • Escalates complaints and gaming questions fast

When Fred hands off to you

  • Any donation payment or card details
  • A tax-deductibility question for a specific gift
  • A raffle, auction, or gaming question
  • A complaint about funds or transparency

What Fred won’t do

  • Take a card or process a donation in chat
  • Guarantee a gift is tax-deductible
  • Share donor names, amounts, or histories

Built for IRS giving rules and state charitable-solicitation law. Every gift stays on your secure giving page.

Office is dark. Fred’s still raising support.

Server-side guardrails

The guardrails you manage in the admin, enforced before Fred replies.

Generosity runs on trust. A wrong tax promise, a leaked donor name, or a card taken in chat can cost a nonprofit its standing and its supporters. This is the compliance panel you manage in the admin: the industry pack automation, your own custom rules, and the hard limits Fred holds no matter how it’s asked. All of it is enforced on our servers before a word reaches the visitor. Not a suggestion in a prompt a clever question can talk around.

Hard limits

The boundaries Fred holds, no matter how a visitor asks.

  • Never guarantee a donation is tax-deductible or promise a tax outcome
  • Never take a card, bank account, or donation payment in chat
  • Never share donor names, gift amounts, or giving histories
  • Always route raffles, auctions, and gaming to staff for compliance

Your custom rules

Layered on top of the pack, unique to your organization. No developer required.

Unlimited

The pack is the starting line, not the ceiling. Every deployment can add its own rules in the admin, block, warn, or just log on any phrase you choose, in either phase, with your own response message. They run right alongside the pack.

  • BLOCKany donation payment or card details in chat
  • WARNbefore any tax-deductibility claim
  • LOGwhen a supporter asks how to give or volunteer
Add your own rule

These industry rules stack on top of the always-on baseline, IRS charitable-giving rules and state charitable-solicitation law, and macro overlays. See how the guardrail layers work

Know which lead to call back first.

Every conversation lands in your CRM with a lead score, a purchase probability, and a plain-language summary. The supporter ready to give or volunteer gets routed to your development team first, so they steward the warmest relationship instead of chasing cold lists.

Charities questions.

Why won’t Fred take my donation in chat?

Donations go through your secure, PCI-compliant giving page, never a chat box. Fred sends the link and routes your team for phone or mail gifts. That boundary is enforced on our servers before Fred ever speaks, not suggested in a prompt a clever question can talk around.

Can Fred tell me if my gift is tax-deductible?

Fred shares your organization’s tax-exempt status in general terms but won’t promise a deduction, since that depends on your situation and IRS rules. It points you to a tax professional.

Will Fred share who donates?

No. Donor names, amounts, and giving histories are confidential. Fred routes recognition questions to your team.

Can it set up a raffle or auction?

Fred routes your team, since gaming, raffles, and auctions carry permits and reporting rules that vary by state. It won’t run them itself.

Answer every supporter. Inspire the gift.
