REF: ABOUT

We believe every donation deserves an audit trail.

Impact Saathi was built out of a simple observation: India's NGOs and CSR teams are doing extraordinary work, but still managing compliance on spreadsheets. We set out to change that.

Our mission
To make every rupee of charitable giving compliant, transparent, and accountable — automatically.

REF: VALUES

What we stand for

The principles that guide every product decision we make.

Compliance first

Every feature starts with what India's laws require — 80G, FCRA, DPDP Act 2023 — not as a constraint, but as a design principle.

Radical transparency

Donors should know exactly where their money went. NGOs shouldn't have to chase CSR teams for updates. Visibility is the product.

Built for India

INR precision, IST timestamps, Hindi language support, Indian mobile validation — not an afterthought, but architected from day one.

Automation over effort

An NGO administrator shouldn't spend their day generating receipts. Every step we can automate, we do — correctly and at scale.

Privacy by design

Donor PAN numbers encrypted at rest. Tenant-isolated data. DPDP consent captured with timestamps. Privacy is not a checkbox.

Honest pricing

No "contact sales" for pricing. No hidden fees. No locked contracts. The numbers will be published soon and the terms are plain language.
