The Problem

The impact sector has a behavioral science bottleneck

01

Expertise doesn’t scale

Most orgs don’t have a behavioral expert. In those that do, there is a coverage problem and they can’t review every proposal, project, or campaign.

02

Time & budget constraints

Behavioral reviews take weeks and cost tens of thousands. Most programs skip them entirely, leaving design flaws undetected until they show up as poor outcomes.

03

No purpose-built tools

No purpose-built tools for behavioral analysis. Teams rely on manual review, consultant judgment, or skip the step altogether.

Four Playbooks

What ABCD does

AI-enabled behavioral playbooks across the program lifecycle. Evaluate your materials, surface evidence-backed recommendations, and generate improved versions. Setup takes minutes and results get sharper the more you use it.

Behavioral Due Diligence — form configuration and portfolio results view

What you get:

Strengths and gaps assessment, dimension-level scoring aligned to your review standards, prioritized recommendations.

Who uses it:

Program officers, investment committees, donors conducting portfolio reviews.

Behavioral Depth

Granular, observable, actionable
