Why DonorConnect
A focused MVP built to move first-time donors to their second gift with clear data, guided actions, and automation.
Solution idea
Centralize donors, donations, and campaigns; surface retention risk; give AI-generated context so staff send the right follow-up fast.
Key features & rationale
- Donor + donation CRUD tied to organizations for clean multi-tenant data.
- Dashboard metrics for totals, trends, and recent gifts to triage work.
- AI donor summaries to condense history and risk into one actionable paragraph.
- Role-based controls so only admins/staff can add gifts or donors.
- Transaction simulator to test workflows without real payments.
Expected challenges & planning
Ensuring auth compatibility with Next.js app router, keeping Prisma multi-tenant filters strict, and handling AI responsibly with minimal PII sent.
