• Real-time and scheduled workflows: Automated data exports, scheduled syncs, retries, exponential backoff, caching, and error recovery built in for reliable automation that responds to pledge captures and donation events.

• Multi-tool orchestration: Combine Evergiving with Salesforce for donor management, Blackbaud for gift processing, Google Sheets for campaign reporting, Slack for team notifications, and Mailchimp for donor communications, all in one seamless workflow.

• Secure and compliant: Features include encrypted vaults, role-based access control, audit logs, and environment isolation, suitable for nonprofits with strict donor data privacy and regulatory compliance requirements.

How Emergent Works with Evergiving in Real Time

STEP 1: Describe your app

Example: "Build a donor management hub that syncs Evergiving pledges to Salesforce as donations, sends welcome emails via Mailchimp to new donors, tracks campaign performance in Google Sheets, and sends Slack alerts when fundraisers reach milestone targets."

STEP 2: Declare integrations

Say "Evergiving + Salesforce + Mailchimp + Google Sheets + Slack." Emergent sets up providers, API key authentication, export configurations, and recommended connection methods automatically.

Emergent automatically introspects your Evergiving data schema, including pledges, donor information, donation amounts, payment methods, fundraiser assignments, campaign details, and retention metrics. It then guides you to accurately map properties across systems, such as Donor Email to Salesforce Contact, Pledge Amount to donation record, Campaign Name to Sheets reporting column, and Fundraiser Performance to Slack notification.

STEP 5: Real-time and scheduled flows

Configure scheduled data exports for pledge syncing, set up automated donor communications triggered by new pledge captures, or define on-demand actions like bulk donor segmentation triggered by dashboard buttons.

STEP 6: Test and preview

Run test queries, simulate data exports, validate donor data mapping and communication workflows, check logs for errors, and let Emergent automatically handle authentication and retries with rate limit management.

STEP 7: Deploy

Deploy your app with one click, complete with versioning, monitoring, error alerts, and usage analytics. You can easily roll back to previous versions or iterate on prompts to add new features.

STEP 8: Expand

Add new capabilities like AI-powered donor retention prediction, personalized giving recommendations, automated lapsed donor win-back campaigns, or connect additional tools like Stripe, QuickBooks, or Donorbox without rewrites. Simply describe what you need, and Emergent adapts your workflow.
