ABOUT

AI Guidance Rooted in Nonprofit Values

We believe AI should amplify human intelligence, not replace it. That technology should strengthen relationships, not automate them away. That efficiency gains only matter if they deepen mission impact, not just pad the margins. Most importantly, we believe nonprofits deserve partners who understand what's at stake—because we've lived it.

Our Approach: Mission-Aligned Intelligence

Our Approach: Mission-Aligned Intelligence

Our Approach: Mission-Aligned Intelligence

Mission-Aligned Intelligence is the organizing principle behind everything we do. It means:


  • Humans retain decision-making authority on what matters most. AI can surface insights, draft communications, and handle routine tasks—but the strategic thinking, relationship-building, and ethical judgments? Those stay with your team.

  • AI systems are accountable to your stakeholders. We help you evaluate tools not just for efficiency, but for equity, transparency, and alignment with your values.

  • Technology serves your mission. We don't push solutions looking for problems. We help you identify where AI can genuinely help—and where it can't.

  • Your team is empowered, not displaced. The goal isn't to replace staff. It's to free them from repetitive, low-value tasks so they can focus on the work that requires human creativity, empathy, and strategic thinking.

"At Neighbor Ride, like many non-profits, we often face resource and time constraints when trying to grow our impact. We wanted to strengthen two pillars of our organization: volunteer recruitment and donor development. While we had experimented with AI tools before, we knew we needed hands-on guidance to truly learn by doing. That’s why we turned to Mike and Alissa. Their ability to quickly adopt AI, combined with deep experience in both technology and the non-profit sector, made them invaluable partners. They not only implemented targeted AI solutions but also helped us begin our AI journey with confidence and far less stress."

"The Capacity Command Center (CCC) is a valuable tool for any non-profit, particularly those balancing numerous demands with limited resources. I wear many hats in my role as Program Director and the CCC has benefited me greatly. This year, for instance, when facing new budget challenges, I sought advice from The Finance Analyst. Later, I turned to The Fundraiser to help me cultivate a compelling ask for monthly donors as well as to create more concise adaptations for my year end giving appeal. It saved me HOURS! The Founder, Mike Mitchell, also goes above and beyond in his support. He arranged a Zoom call to deepen my understanding of the tool’s capabilities and shared tailored prompts suited to my organization's needs. He met me on my level and showed genuine care for the mission I serve; he is a kind, humble and knowledgeable leader. "
