Fundraising steward

Know the donor before you write the letter.

Stewardly reads the systems your team already runs and gives you one page on any donor — every gift, every email, every meeting, every note — with a citation under each line so you can check it before you send anything.

Stewardly is invitation-only while we onboard our first organizations.

What it does

Donor briefs

Ask for a brief and Stewardly assembles the donor's giving history, your correspondence with them, the meetings they attended, the notes your team left and the texts you exchanged — into one page, sourced line by line.

A steward to think with

Ask who to thank this week, which major donors have gone quiet, or what to say next. Stewardly drafts the email into your own mailbox. It never sends one.

On top of what you run

No migration and no new system of record. Stewardly connects to the tools your organization already pays for and reads them where they are.

What it connects to

Each connection is made by someone on your team, and can be disconnected by them at any time from the integrations page.

  • Stripe Donations and recurring gifts
  • ActBlue Contributions, kept in sync
  • EveryAction / VAN People and contact notes
  • Givebutter Contacts and their activity
  • Salesforce Read-only, queried live
  • Gmail and Outlook Read and draft — never send
  • Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar Meetings the donor attended
  • Google Docs Documents that name the donor
  • Slack Searched live; public channels in briefs
  • iMessage Synced from a Mac you pair yourself

Careful by construction

  • It cannot send mail. Stewardly writes drafts into your own mailbox and stops there. The permission to send is never requested from Google or Microsoft, so it is the platform, not our promise, that enforces it.
  • Briefs stay to public channels. A brief is visible to your whole organization, so the Slack search behind one is restricted to public channels — never a private channel or a direct message.
  • Credentials are encrypted. Every access token and API key is encrypted in our database, and each organization's data is scoped to that organization.
  • Nothing trains a model. Your donors' information is never sold, never used for advertising, and never used to train anyone's model.

The details are in the Privacy Policy, including exactly what Stewardly reads from Google and what it does with it.
