The Giving AI
Enterprise technology and security for mission-driven organizations, powered by an agentic AI team. Affordable at mission scale.
Start here
The free email-security audit
Email is the front door to your organization and the most common way attackers impersonate you to your donors, your team, and the people you serve. The audit is free, it is the natural place to begin, and it tells you exactly where you stand.
SPF
Confirms which servers are allowed to send mail using your domain, so spoofed mail can be rejected.
DKIM
Verifies that messages were not altered in transit and genuinely came from your domain.
DMARC
Tells receiving servers what to do with mail that fails the checks, and reports who is sending as you.
Impersonation protection
Checks for the gaps attackers use to pose as your leadership in donation and wire-transfer scams.
Most nonprofits and small mission-driven organizations have never had these configured. A misconfigured domain lets a stranger send email that looks like it came from your executive director. The audit finds those gaps before someone else does.
What we do
Services built for organizations that serve a mission
One agentic AI team, five service areas. You take what your organization needs and grow into the rest over time.
Security and IT
Practical, audited security and day-to-day technology operations, sized and priced for mission budgets.
If your organization does not have a CTO, this is a fractional-CTO engagement: we hold the technology strategy and operations for you.
If you already have a CTO or CIO, this is an agentic-AI technical force that augments and advises your existing team. It never replaces them.
Marketing, SEO, and outreach
Marketing, search visibility, and outreach that drives donations and builds supplier and contractor relationships, so your reach grows alongside your mission.
E-learning and certification
Run your courses, track completion, certify learners, and recertify when it is due, all in one platform built for your programs.
AI-powered support
AI support services for your team, extendable to the people your organization serves by phone, text, or website chat.
Forming and supporting mission-driven organizations
Forming and supporting mission-driven organizations, with expertise in creating and accounting for L3C (low-profit LLC), 501(c)(3), and similar structures, from formation through operations.
This is how the model takes shape in practice: we help stand up the right legal and financial structure so the technology you fix and the catalog you share can become earned revenue or shared support across your network.
The model
Turn IT from a cost drain into a profit center
Technology usually shows up as a line item that only ever costs money. The Giving AI flips that, in two steps.
Step one
Fix your own gaps, affordably
Use the agentic AI team to close your security and technology gaps at a price that fits a mission budget. You get enterprise-grade capability without an enterprise-grade payroll.
Step two
Sell or share the catalog
Offer the same service catalog to other organizations as earned revenue, or provide it to the supporting and allied organizations in your network. Your technology function starts paying for itself. When the right legal and financial structure matters, our L3C and 501(c)(3) formation support stands it up for you.
Why The Giving AI
Built from lived experience
The Giving AI was founded by Paul Dolphin, who built this agentic AI team in part to navigate his own housing crisis. The work comes from genuine lived experience of serving mission-driven causes, not from a distance. That is why affordability at mission scale is the starting point, not an afterthought.
