A new category of structured analysis — built for nonprofits who want to know what funders see, partners who deliver diagnostics, and funders who need more than a 990.
Practitioner-reviewed · Evidence-based · Delivered in 48 hours or 5–8 days
A funder scanning sixty applications doesn't read your materials. They scan for signals. Within ninety seconds they have formed an opinion about your revenue trend, your donor concentration, your governance structure, your reserves, and whether your board could survive the loss of your CEO.
That opinion drives the next decision. And nobody around you is paid to tell you what it is — not your auditor, not your grant writer, not your consultant, and certainly not the funder who passed.
Charity Navigator tells the world whether you are trustworthy. A six-figure strategic engagement tells you how to grow. Neither answers the question a funder is actually asking: Is this organization ready to receive and deploy capital? NAS is the decision layer that does.
The same rigorous analysis — structured for the decision each reader actually needs to make.
"A 62 out of 100 is not a failing grade. It is a map. Most of what looks unfundable is fixable by people who already work in the building."
We did not invent a score. We named a gap. The sector kept reaching for the word fundability and not finding it — because nobody had made it a measurable thing. NAS exists to make it measurable, in a form a board can read in fifteen minutes, a consultant can hand to a client, and a funder can use as a pre-grant diligence check.
