AI isn't just part of our product. It's how we make global impact simpler and more accessible.
At Goodstack, we're builders first. But when it comes to AI, transparency matters. Welcome to Part 2 of our series on why Goodstack exists as an AI-native platform. Part 1 explored the why. This post focuses on how our philosophy becomes something organizations use every day in practice.
The reality is that impact work is growing more global, more complex, and more resource-constrained. Trust, safety, equity, and reach all depend on how effectively organizations harness intelligence within their operations. AI can't be a feature bolted on later; it must be foundational.
Here's how that foundation shows up across the Goodstack platform.
How AI sits at the core
Supporting multinational giving requires more than a toolkit. It requires a system that understands context, adapts to complexity, and learns continuously.
Goodstack uses AI to help teams:
Verify nonprofits worldwide with confidence and speed
Interpret vast amounts of real-world data across borders and languages
Automate routine administrative tasks that drain time and resources
Identify potential risks early before they become problems
Surface opportunities for deeper engagement with causes and communities
The result? A more straightforward and confident path to impact, even for teams with limited bandwidth.
How it works: AI across the platform
AI is not siloed into one feature. It’s woven throughout our unified platform and supports every stage of the giving journey.
Verification & compliance
Global verification: Our models analyze data across more than 13 million organizations worldwide, spanning nonprofits, health organizations, educational institutions, and social enterprises, to confirm legitimacy and accelerate onboarding. One multinational technology company reduced nonprofit review time from weeks to 2 hours using Goodstack's verification intelligence.
Verification intelligence: Our system cross-checks multiple data sources to confirm legitimacy and regulatory compliance across jurisdictions, seamlessly adjusting to regional regulations, languages, and currencies.
Employee engagement
Employee volunteering: Employees are matched with opportunities that align with their skills, interests, and availability, making engagement more meaningful and sustainable. AI also helps organizations and employees set up volunteering opportunities by suggesting descriptions, images, activity tags, and relevant skills, making it easier to create compelling opportunities that attract the right participants.
Fundraisers and giving: When creating peer-to-peer fundraisers, AI suggests descriptions and images that help employees launch campaigns quickly and effectively.
Support and guidance: Goodstack's help center leverages AI to help answer product questions instantly, so employees and administrators can find answers without waiting for support tickets.
Unified reporting
Goodstack brings all giving, volunteering, grants, and donation activity into one place to deliver unified reporting. We help you organize data, spot patterns, and translate numbers into insights and stories that actually matter. Instead of sifting through spreadsheets or disconnected systems, teams see a clear picture of their impact and can share it with stakeholders in a way that feels simple, honest, and compelling.
At every stage, intelligence works quietly in the background, removing friction so teams can focus on the work that matters most.
