All platforms
Grant Runway homepage

Grant Runway

Our grant management platform. It reads millions of past grants from public IRS filings to match nonprofits with the funders most likely to say yes, then handles the budget, compliance, and reporting once they win. It came from watching the same grant problem hit client after client.

Market Watch community health brief for California

Market Watch

For Community Catalyst

A weekly community health brief for advocates in every state. It tracks hospital closures, layoffs, and cuts from the public record alongside ballot measures and funding deadlines, with a facility explorer, county map, and trends behind it.

A small studio, on purpose.

I started out at Boeing as a product manager and data analyst, then left to start my own data and software company. That was twelve years ago.

We don't advertise. Almost every client comes from another client, and most of them stay for years. I think that's because we build what people actually need, we move quickly, and you can always reach the person who built your system.

Some of our own products started the same way. Grant Runway came from watching the same grant problem hit client after client, and TipHub from seeing how communities actually move money.

What we build

Custom platforms and portals
Client portals, internal tools, CRMs, and case management systems built around how your team actually works.
Data systems and dashboards
Pipelines that pull scattered data into one place, and dashboards your team will actually open.
AI and automation
Practical automation for the repetitive work: intake, reporting, data cleaning, and document handling.
Websites
Fast, secure sites with analytics, search, and a contact flow set up properly from day one.
Integrations
Connecting the tools you already pay for so information stops living in five places.
Ongoing support
Hosting, monitoring, and updates after launch, from the same person who built it.

Tell us what you're working on.

A few sentences is plenty. We'll reply with questions, not a sales pitch.
