A Fundraising.AI Experience · Free

No credit card. No catch. Your practice stays private.

Most AI training teaches you which buttons to press. That’s not what’s holding the sector back.

What’s holding us back is the conversations — with the teammate afraid AI will replace them, the board member worried about donor backlash, the donor asking whether their data is safe. You can agree with every responsible-AI principle in theory and still freeze when it’s time to actually talk.

Reading a policy lives in your head. Practicing the conversation builds the muscle memory. This experience moves you from agreeing-in-theory to ready-in-practice.

How it works

Four steps from nervous to ready.

Get coached. Coach Tivy, grounded in the Fundraising.AI Framework, helps you understand responsible AI and where your organization stands today.
Practice the hard ones. Talk with realistic characters — an anxious colleague, a skeptical board member, an over-eager teammate, and donors. Pick your difficulty.
Get real feedback. Every conversation is scored against the FAI AI Readiness Conversation Standards — eight standards mapped to the framework.
Leave ready. You’ll walk away knowing how to speak about AI and how responsible use aligns with your values.

Trust is the currency of our sector. Fundraising.AI’s own research is blunt: most donors say transparency about AI matters, their biggest worries are losing the human touch and their data privacy, and how you talk about AI directly affects whether they give.

This experience builds exactly that capability — the human side of AI adoption the sector keeps skipping.

Your privacy matters here too. Your practice conversations are completely private to you. We only ever see aggregated, anonymized insights — never individual transcripts.
