Philanthropi provides a giving-as-a-service platform that uses bank technology to give individuals access to tax-advantaged donor-advised funds typically reserved for high-net-worth donors. The platform lets users customize where their dollars go, create individual or family foundations, and track personal gifts over time. Philanthropi also offers charities low-cost, easy access to individual donors and aims to match donors and nonprofits based on the donor's interests. The company positions itself to make giving a routine part of daily life rather than infrequent occurrences. Since launching its platform with Live Oak, more than 70% of funds granted have directly supported charities in North Carolina. Philanthropi was founded in Philadelphia in 2018 and cites the large share of individual giving (69% of U.S. donations in 2020) as core market context.
