To harness technology and power purpose for every organisation worldwide.
Our take
Following major catalysts such as Covid-19, the Climate Crisis & Ukraine, it is becoming more apparent that aligning brands with purpose is more important than ever. However, the process for businesses to build purpose, donations & doing good into their products is archaic, manual, and inefficient.
Goodstack's API-first platform allows companies to quickly and easily build giving and purpose into what they do. Goodstack achieves this by building cutting-edge technology that takes away the complexities of giving to 8.6m nonprofits in over 185 countries.
Use-cases vary from allowing customers to give at the end of documentaries on their favourite streaming sites, supporting in-kind donations of software products, all the way powering giving on some of the world’s biggest social media platforms.
Goodstack's mission is to power purpose in every company worldwide and to achieve this, it closed a large Series A with General Catalyst at the beginning of 2022. It has offices in the UK, US & Australia and is focused on hiring talent moving forward.
