For Executive Directors & CEOs

You answer for all of it.Now you can see all of it.

StratusLIVE Ignite gives executive directors one platform for fundraising, finance, marketing, and engagement, with dashboards that read live records and AI teammates included in every subscription. You see the whole organization in one place, configure write gates, and approve outbound communication before it sends.

  • AI teammates in every subscription
  • One platform, one set of numbers
  • Zero custom code implementations

Three questions you carry alone.

Executive directors answer to the board, the funders, and every donor at once. In a fragmented stack, the answers live in five systems and one overworked head.

Is this growth sustainable?

Revenue went up, but you can't see whether it came from repeatable work or one good event. Without one view of giving, you steer by feel.

What do I tell the board on Thursday?

The packet takes a week of asking: development pulls one number, finance pulls another, and they rarely match. You present both and hope nobody adds them.

Where is the team's time actually going?

A lean staff spends its best hours moving data between systems instead of moving the mission. Every hour of re-keying is an hour not spent with a donor.

Run the organization, not the reconciliation.

Ignite brings fundraising, finance, marketing, and engagement onto one record. AI teammates draft the work that used to wait for a free afternoon, while your team owns the decisions and configures write gates.

A week without Ignite

  • Chase numbers from five systems for the board packet
  • Referee when development and finance disagree
  • Watch the team re-key data between tools
  • Answer donor questions from memory

The same week on Ignite

  • Open dashboards that read the live records
  • Both teams read the same numbers
  • One platform, one record, no re-keying
  • Ask and get an answer you can trace

The board questions, tied to live records.

Live dashboards connect growth, board reporting, and staff capacity to the records behind them.

Does Ignite work for an organization our size?

Yes. Ignite serves nonprofits raising from the low millions to the tens of millions, including teams where the executive director is also the development department. Pricing is based on your organization's revenue, plus flat Solution Pack pricing quoted up front for the packs you choose, with no per-seat fees, so the whole team can work in the platform.

How does Ignite change board reporting?

Dashboards read live records, so the numbers you present are current and match the numbers finance works from. What used to take a week of collecting exports becomes a view you open.

Do we need an IT department to run Ignite?

No dedicated IT team is required. Ignite is one cloud platform administered in one place, built for lean teams, and implementations require zero custom code.

What does the AI actually do for a lean team?

AI teammates carry the preparation: sourced research briefs, ranked retention saves with the evidence behind each, cultivation outreach drafted for your review, and answers to plain-language questions with sources shown. Every draft waits for human approval before anything sends, so a small staff gets capacity without giving up control. AI is included in every subscription.
