Impact Measurement and Management and Technology for Good Leaders

Our vision is to make the world a better place through co-creating a globally accepted impact measurement and management framework and streamlining cross-sector efforts.

We are on a mission to realize demonstrable impact, that can be tracked until the last beneficiary of the system. This will make it easier to manage risk of negative or unintended consequences as well as give power to influence changes in behavior, organizations and systems, policies, capacities, social norms and awareness.

By utilizing technology to organize, uncover, assess and manage data, we are helping to convert capital into high impact investments.

In 2015, our journey started with a mission to connect the social sector with technology to facilitate more transparent social impact measurement, management and communication.

Today, we are not only empowering the social sector but all sectors across the spectrum. With our SaaS Platform, we are enabling companies to measure, manage and communicate impact easier. We are bridging the gap between beneficiaries on the ground and the decision makers on top.
