Heartcraft Studio Access

With every cohort, our team goes to work in the Heartcraft Studio to design, build, and deploy AI solutions to power your mission.

As a Collaborative member, you'll have access to every tool created in the Heartcraft Studio - before, during, and after your cohort.

That means you'll have ongoing access to an ever-growing collection of 100+ AI apps, workflows, and prompts continually updated as new innovations emerge.

Innovation Credits

Each member organization receives 20 hours of Innovation Credits (a $10K value) that can be used in the two years post-cohort to invest in your organization however you want - from designing new AI tools and apps, to process automations, to specialized consulting for unique challenges, to implementing a new solution created in the Studio, to team training.

You choose.

It's your opportunity to continue architecting your AI infrastructure with our help.

As a member of the Collaborative, your organization becomes a lifetime member of the Heartcraft Collaborative Community for continued community support and inspiration. 

Through monthly calls, you'll stay connected to a network of visionary nonprofit leaders, where you'll continue to learn, celebrate and architect the future of nonprofit impact.

Annual Strategy Review

Once a year, we reconnect for a strategic alignment session - revisiting your vision, evaluating your progress, and mapping your next horizon of possibility as outlined in your AI Strategy.

Because transformation doesn't happen once - it grows deeper with every season of reflection and renewal.
