How Daffodil Discovery works for private foundations

The nonprofit research agent pulls verified outcomes, financials, and program data across the full U.S. nonprofit dataset — instantly.

Aggregate impact across your entire grant portfolio in one view. No more chasing PDFs from each grantee.

Bring your existing framework. Daffodil maps your criteria to each grantee's outcomes data automatically.

Compare candidates on qualitative and quantitative data before you commit — not just their narrative.

Full grant and disbursement tracking, audit trail, and team access controls — all built in.

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.

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.
