How Daffodil Discovery works for giving circles

Pool contributions from every member into a single donor-advised fund. Grant collectively with full visibility for everyone.

Define your circle's focus areas. Daffodil surfaces nonprofits with verified outcomes that match — ready to discuss at your next meeting.

After each grant, your circle's impact stream updates as nonprofits share progress. Keep members engaged between meetings.

Compare organizations on qualitative and quantitative outcomes data before the circle votes — informed decisions, every time.

Build and share curated shortlists with the group. Everyone sees the same research, in one place.

Platform features

A Daffodil Discovery account is your Swiss Army Knife for philanthropy.

Give through a DAF: Open a donor-advised fund and grant to any verified U.S. nonprofit — tax-efficiently, with a full audit trail.
Multiple DAFs, one account: Spin up separate funds for different purposes — cause areas, time horizons, or initiatives — all under one login.
Invite your team: Add colleagues, advisors, or family members with the right level of access for each.
Curate nonprofit lists: Build and share curated shortlists for research, reporting, or collective decision-making.
Real-time impact streams: Live updates from the nonprofits you support, surfaced based on your giving or areas of interest.
Smart surveying: Deploy surveys for deeper insights. We monitor and meter every request — and auto-answer where we already have the data — so we never overburden nonprofits.
Bring your own impact framework: Already have priorities or an impact thesis? Bring it. Daffodil maps your framework to real outcomes data automatically.
Benchmark across nonprofits: Compare qualitative and quantitative data across organizations before you give — informed decisions, every time.
Discovery Fund: Allocate to our algorithmic matchmaking fund and let Daffodil surface the highest-impact opportunities automatically.

AI features

Every Daffodil account includes a full suite of AI agents built for outcomes-based giving.

Giving planner agent: Describe your giving goals. The agent drafts a plan, proposes outcome-aligned organizations, and adjusts as your priorities evolve.
Smart search: Describe what you're looking for in plain language. Daffodil intelligently maps your request into a multi-parameter complex query across the full nonprofit dataset.
Nonprofit research agent: Instant AI-assisted due diligence on any nonprofit — outcomes data, financials, program details, and benchmarking in one place.
AI-managed survey deployment: The AI deploys surveys, routes responses, and drafts follow-ups automatically — so you get deeper insights without manual overhead.
Impact framework adaptation: Already have an impact framework? The AI maps your criteria to nonprofit outcomes data and keeps it current as new information comes in.
