EngageDonor scoring for small development teams

Know who's ready to give, before you ask.

Tona Engage scores every supporter on what they tell you, how they engage, how they give and what they could give. Then it tells your team who to ask now, who to cultivate and who is starting to drift away.

Sound familiar?

Your team's time is too precious to spend guessing.

Wealth screening gave us a list of rich people. Not interested people.

With Tona Engage: capacity and readiness are scored side by side, so you see who can give and who wants to.

Our gift officers spend weeks chasing donors who were never going to give.

With Tona Engage: a ranked list of who is ready now, refreshed every day.

We sent a survey. The answers are still sitting in a spreadsheet.

With Tona Engage: every answer is scored and added to that donor's journey.

We only learn about a bequest after the donor has passed.

With Tona Engage: legacy intentions surface the moment a donor shares them.

Everything in Tona Engage

From first survey answer to the right conversation.

Two scores for every supporter

Readiness (0–100) from survey answers, engagement and giving, weighted toward the last 30 days. Capacity from wealth screening, checked against what they've actually given you. Together they sort your whole file.

Surveys that score themselves

Decide what each answer is worth and what it sets off: an alert, a journey, a tag. Donors answer one question at a time.

Wealth screening built in

Capacity, real estate and philanthropy signals from DonorLens land on every profile in one click, or import from any provider.

Ready-to-talk alerts

The moment a supporter crosses your threshold, their gift officer hears about it, with the reason and a suggested ask.

Catches donors cooling off

Loyal donors who drop 15 points in 30 days are flagged with the reason, while there's still time to reach out.

Writes back to your database

Scores, survey answers and call notes sync to the donor database you already use, through the API or signed webhooks.

How it works

Live in a week, with us beside you.

1

Connect your database

We load your supporters and gifts from your CRM or a CSV and keep them in sync both ways.

2

Send your first survey

Start from a proven template. Every answer is scored and added to that donor's timeline.

Work the ranked list

Your team opens one list of who to call, why, and what to ask for. Logged outcomes make the scores sharper.

Questions

Good to know.

Anything else? Book a demo and ask a person.

Do we have to replace our donor database?

No. Tona Engage sits beside it. Supporters and gifts come in through the API or a CSV, and scores, answers and notes go back through signed webhooks.

How is the readiness score worked out?

Survey answers count for 45 points, engagement for 30 and giving history for 25, with recent activity weighted most. Every point on a profile says where it came from.

Where does the wealth data come from?

From DonorLens, which screens against public records and the web and cites every finding. You can also import results from another provider.

Who can see our donors' data?

Only your team. Every organization's data stays its own, and consent, contact preferences and "rather not say" answers are honored automatically.
