Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions?
You’re not the only one rethinking how fundraising should work. Explore common questions—or reach out and we’ll walk you through it.
What is Avid?
Avid is the first AI-powered Fundraising Operating System.
It connects your CRM, email, donation tools, and ads—then turns donor data into daily priorities, ready-to-launch campaigns, and real-time results.
No more juggling tools. Just faster launches, clearer priorities, and fewer barriers between strategy and execution.
What problems does Avid solve?
Fundraisers don’t need more tools. They need results.
Avid is built to solve the five biggest blockers to effective fundraising today:
- Scattered data with no clear next steps
- Tools that don’t talk to each other
- Campaigns that take too long to launch
- Small teams with limited capacity
- Outreach that feels generic and fails to connect
Avid turns all of that into a system that helps fundraisers move faster, personalize smarter, and execute with less effort.
How is Avid different from a CRM, BI tool, or fundraising platform?
CRMs store donor data. BI tools show what happened. Avid tells you what to do next—and helps you launch it.
Unlike traditional tools, Avid connects your existing stack, identifies your best opportunities, and automates campaign setup and delivery.
It’s not just insight. It’s execution.
Do I need to replace my current tools?
No. Avid isn’t a replacement—it’s the system that connects everything you already use.
Your CRM, email platform, donation tools, and ad channels stay in place. Avid brings them together so you can actually act on the data you’ve been collecting.
Workflows stay familiar. Results get faster.
How does Avid stay in sync with my data and tools?
Avid keeps everything connected in real time—no exports, no delays.
It syncs your donor segments across your CRM, email tools, and ad platforms automatically. Whether you’re launching a campaign or reviewing results, you’re always working with the most up-to-date data.
No more stale lists or spreadsheet exports. Just clean, connected fundraising.
What kinds of campaigns does Avid create?
Avid includes pre-built Playbooks for the campaigns you run every day—and the ones you haven’t had time to try.
From reactivation and recurring upgrades to new donor welcomes and acquisition, Avid builds multichannel campaigns across email, ads, landing pages, and donation forms. All from one place. All ready to launch.
What kinds of insights does Avid provide?
Avid delivers live performance dashboards, predictive insights, and clear direction on what to do next.
See campaign performance, donor engagement trends, and AI-backed recommendations—all in real time.
You don’t just get reports. You get results.
Can I control how campaigns are launched?
Yes. Avid gives you full visibility and control—set it to run automatically, or review and approve every step.
Whether you want fully automated execution or hands-on review, Avid adapts to your team’s preferences.
Automate what you want. Customize what you need. You stay in control.
Who is Avid for?
Avid is built for hands-on fundraisers.
Whether you’re leading development at a nonprofit, managing campaigns across clients, or juggling strategy and execution on a small team—Avid helps you do more, faster.
If you’re responsible for launching campaigns, managing donor engagement, and driving revenue, Avid was built for you.
If you’re the one doing the work, this is the system that works for you.
Is Avid a fit for small teams or orgs without a dedicated marketing staff?
Yes. Avid is built to multiply your capacity, not increase your workload.
Whether you’re a one-person development shop or a small team managing every channel, Avid helps you move faster, launch smarter, and stay focused on what matters.
You don’t need a big team to launch great campaigns. You just need a better system.
Can Avid support consultants and agencies?
Yes—Avid helps agencies and consultants scale execution across multiple clients without adding overhead.
Automate reporting, launch campaigns faster, and keep every client’s donor data synced—without jumping between platforms or building everything manually.
Less time managing tools. More time delivering results.
