Avid runs on top of the tools you already use — reads what’s there, and sends campaigns back out where the work happens.
CRM
Raiser's Edge NXT
Reporting
One of Avid's deepest connections: gifts, constituents, and the full campaign/fund/appeal/package hierarchy — including appeal-level expenses that power automatic ROI.
Custom audiences (identifiers hashed inside Avid first — Meta receives hashes, never raw records), lookalikes from your best donors, ad deployment, and the Conversions API for server-side donation matching.
Avid’s strategic data partner. Buy Wiland’s modeled prospect audiences right inside Avid — no files, no import — and they land beside your own segments, ready to target in Pathways and Playbooks. It’s how Avid reaches net-new donors without ever becoming a cold-list vendor. Wiland’s data also backs the live Benchmarks pool, so your comparisons reflect the whole sector. Learn more →
Don’t see your system? There’s still a path.
Avid can almost always bring a source in anyway.
File upload
CSV, Excel, and Zip files for constituents, transactions, email contacts, campaign costs, mail selections, form submissions. Append (with dedup) or replace; secure upload links let an outside vendor (a mail house, say) deliver files without an Avid account.
An Avid-hosted secure inbox, or Avid pulling from your server daily; CSV, text, and Excel files, plus compressed archives, covered by Avid's SOC 2 audits.
Avid connects read-only — it reads your data and acts on it, but never writes back. Your CRM stays your system of record.
Your CRM doesn’t change. Read-only connections; Avid never writes back. The only thing it sends out is audiences — to destinations you’ve connected, when your team syncs them.
Encrypted, always — in transit and at rest; database connections require SSL and read-only credentials; static IPs published for allowlisting.
Identifiers hashed inside Avid before anything reaches an ad platform.
Owned audiences only — defined from your own data, with a record-level preview and consent guardrails before any sync.
SOC 2 Type II · Fundraising.AI signatory. Benchmarks use anonymized aggregates; you can opt out of contributing.
Current automatically — most connections sync daily; the initial backfill typically completes within ~24 hours.
Full security and compliance detail — subprocessors, data residency, certifications — lives at trust.avidai.com.
Keep every tool. Lose the busywork.
Avid runs on top of the stack you already have — read-only, nothing ripped out — and puts it to work as one. See how it’d come together for a team like yours.
