The future of nonprofit work, on your terms

1

Start with a purpose or a simple prompt

Choose guided, repeatable workflows shaped around real nonprofit jobs—with the questions, review steps, and deliverables already built in to help you move forward confidently.

2

Bring your operations into the future without tearing down what works

Upload the reports, exports, statements, and notes you already use while keeping your existing CRM, accounting, fundraising tools, and familiar processes in place.

3

Move faster while staying in control

As Mission Assistant provides answers and outputs, you can review, edit, and approve before you take further action.

More capacity for what matters most

Prepare board materials with less manual assembly

Board reporting often requires financial reports, fundraising updates, program notes, and organizational context. Gathering and summarizing that information can take hours before the writing begins.

Mission Assistant guides you through the inputs and review process. You decide which insights belong in the final output, then generate board-ready materials for review.

OUTCOME

Spend less time assembling information and more time preparing for the conversation.

Find Gaps in Donation Reconciliation

Comparing donation records, payment processor reports, bank statements, and accounting exports can leave teams working across several spreadsheets.

Mission Assistant helps organize records, identify likely matches, and surface exceptions that need human review. Your team approves results and updates the appropriate systems.

OUTCOME

Focus attention on unresolved records instead of checking every line manually.

Organize form 990-EZ preparation

Preparing Form 990-EZ requires collecting source documents, answering detailed questions, checking extracted information, and organizing materials for review.

Mission Assistant guides your team through the preparation workflow and creates a review-ready filing package. It does not file with the IRS or replace professional tax or accounting review.

OUTCOME

Bring structure to preparation while keeping final decisions with your team.

Guide staff through software onboarding

Generic checklists rarely reflect the actual setup path for nonprofit software. New team members may still need to search for instructions or rely on the person who knows the system best.

As you get started with Velora products, Mission Assistant makes it easy for you or your newest staff and volunteers to gain clear instructions for onboarding.

OUTCOME

Give staff a clearer path through setup and training.

OUTCOME

Give staff a clearer path through setup and training.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from ChatGPT (or other general LLMs)?

ChatGPT is a blank slate. Mission Assistant already knows nonprofit workflows with no prompt engineering required. It also learns your org: during onboarding, you answer a few standard questions that are turned into a custom system prompt, so every response is tailored to your organization's context. That's a level of nonprofit- and org-specific personalization a general LLM can't replicate without ongoing manual prompt engineering.

Is my organization's data safe?

Yes. Your data is yours. It is never used to train foundation models, and it stays inside the same secure Velora environment you already use for Aplos, Keela, and Raisely. Mission Assistant is built for organizations that hold sensitive donor, financial, and constituent data, and trust is a first-class pillar of the product, not a footnote.

Does it work without my Velora data connected?

Yes. You do not need to use other Velora products to use Mission Assistant. The nonprofit workflows and chat experience are trained to work based on the context you provide and a general understanding of nonprofit operations. Mission Assistant will evolve to include deep integrations with the Velora product suite, but it will always remain valuable to any nonprofit, product agnostic.

What can I use Mission Assistant for?

How does Mission Assistant understand my nonprofit?

Mission Assistant combines knowledge of nonprofit operations with context about your organization. During onboarding, you provide information about your nonprofit that helps Mission Assistant tailor its responses and guidance to your organization.

Over time, deeper connections across Velora will make that context even richer by allowing Mission Assistant to work with live fundraising, donor, financial, and other organizational data.
