My pronouns are she, she, her, her, and I'm lead our customer experience teams, experience include support and success. YourCause. And I have been am celebrating company for thirteen years, this summer as can. see some to you, wonderful, Terry. names on the line. And we're happy to have you join us today, and I'm excited to pass it back to Kayla to kick things off. Yeah. Absolutely. Thanks for those introductions y'all. Before we get started, because this is one of our product update briefings, I do need to read the safe harbor statement in its entirety. This presentation contains forward looking statements that involve inherent risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. It outlines Blackbaud's current plans and general product direction as of the date this presentation was created. Functionality described in this presentation that is not currently available is subject to change at any time without notice and at Blackbaud's sole discretion. It does not represent a commitment to develop or release specific features within the time frame discussed according to the presented designer at all. Please make any purchase decisions based on features and functionality that are currently available. Next, I wanna give a quick little spiel on our platform that we're using today, Goldcast, in case this is your first time joining us. Although, I feel like for many on the line, you are very familiar with this platform at this point. If you have any issues with audio or screens lagging, we suggest refreshing your browser. And if issues persist, I will say that this platform tends to prefer Chrome or Edge over Safari, so you might consider switching browsers. We are recording today's session, and so a recording will be sent to your email within twenty four hours of concluding. And there's a couple of things on the right hand side that I wanna point out for you specifically. First, you will see a chat tab open. This is just open to the speakers in case we need to push a message to you. On the far right, you'll see a q and a tab. That is where we invite you to drop in any of your questions. We are coming at you live today, so we appreciate any context around your questions just so we know exactly what you're asking for, as it might take us a moment to address those since we're all on the phone live. And then finally, in the middle of those two, you'll find the docs section. We'll reference a few different links here coming up in a minute when I cover some recent updates, but there is one document that I wanna point out to you that should be at the bottom of the list. It's called the Impact Edge companion guide. This is a great resource that summarizes everything you're gonna hear today in just kinda short form so you have a nice little takeaway and summary of all the exciting innovation that's been recently released and coming soon. And you likely probably joined us for one of our earlier sessions this week. We're rounding out our product update briefings for your cause from Blackbaud with this Impact Edge session. Earlier this week on Tuesday, we covered CSR Connect. This is a your cause solution for employee giving and volunteering. And then we covered Grants Connect on Wednesday, which is our your cause corporate impact grant making solution. I mentioned that because both CSR Connect and Grants Connect are the data sources that pull into Impact Edge. So Impact Edge is really geared for our your cause customers just in case you're on the line from one of our other verticals. If you didn't have a chance to join us earlier this week for CSR Connect and Grants Connect, we are going to be putting up an on demand page by tomorrow, where you can go and register and get a quick recording to any of these sessions. Here's a look at what we'll dive into today. And before we dive into this agenda, right after this, I'll just cover a quick round of updates and then pass the mic to Callie, where she will dive into our customer experience. And then we'll briefly hear from Terry on our vision and strategy for the your cause solutions. If you are with us for CSR Connect and Grants Connect, some of this might feel a little bit repetitive, but it is shortened for today's presentation so that we can dive right on into the road map and spend a majority of our time there talking about features that have been recently released, are coming soon, and then some of those longer term visions and plans we have for Impact Edge. Like I said, a couple of quick updates for me before I pass the mic to Cali. You'll find all of these linked in our docs tab. So starting at the top here, we have a new vodcast with Andrew Troupe, our chief impact officer. It is called what fuels you, and it's really about uncovering people's purpose and passions, both personally and professionally, who work in our world of corporate and social impact. Really great visual podcast that we have linked, like I said, in the docs. The first two episodes are out now. Second, bbcon registration is open. We will be in Columbus, Ohio from September 29 through October 1 later this fall. And then third, this is an exciting update that we'll cover a little bit more here in a moment as we get into, what's coming up next with Impact Edge. But we joined the Impact Reporting Network earlier this year building on our partnership with True Impact. So this network is all about creating impact assessments for nonprofits that can then be reused across the network. So really alleviating the burden that we place on nonprofit partners for outcomes and impact measurement and finding a way to make that more accessible for them and then easier to reuse across funders. So really excited about some updates that we have there, and we'll cover that more in the coming soon section. And then finally, I wanna talk a little bit about the Blackbaud verified network. So if you are a nonprofit on the line today, the Blackbaud verified network is the free portal that ties to those YourCause employee engagement and grant making solutions that I was speaking to earlier. Within this portal, you can access donor details, claim your charity profile to really enhance how you appear to over 500 companies and 9,000,000 employees who use those your cause solutions. And coming up this summer, we have some really exciting innovation with Blackbaud verified network. In the next few weeks, we'll actually be migrating it to Blackbaud engineering system, which sounds really technical. But if you're a Blackbaud nonprofit customer, all this means is that you'll be able to access it right alongside products like Raiser's Edge or Financial Edge in that omnibar experience. And then this is also playing a critical role in our expedited giving functionality, which we talked a lot about in our CSR Connect and Grants Connect pubs. But this functionality will speed up donation processing timelines by 90 all the way up to 99%. We're talking as little as ten minutes to get donations into your accounts. Part of that will be facilitated through a Blackbaud integrated payments direct connection within Blackbaud verified network. So there's more to come here, but there is a couple of docs linked towards the bottom of that list. One will take you to a page where you can learn more about Blackbaud verified network, and then you can go in and claim your profile. And then the second is an article that we just published about how nonprofits can get ready to take advantage of expedited giving. So I'm going to pass it off to Callie to dive into the customer experience. Thanks, Kayla. Everything you'll see today is rooted in one mission, helping you achieve your biggest goals with confidence. This section focuses on how we're going to support you every step of the way. So whether you're navigating something new or scaling what's already working, every update should make your experience easier and clearer. That's why we release twice a month on a predictable schedule with release notes so that you always know what changed and why it matters. And every major launch comes with a hands on admin workshop and enablement guide so that your team feels confident from day one. We update our help centers with every release, putting you in control of your settings on your own timeline. And when you need us, your customer success manager and our support teams are here to help. Your feedback also shapes what we build next through product submissions to our ideas portal as well as early access pilots. All of this on a platform with 99% plus uptime. Because when you're working with employees, running grant programs, activating volunteers, and reaching more communities, the work can't wait. Our focus on responsible innovation has led to a 114 improvement in net promoter score because confidence and experience matter as much as capability. And our confident customers often wanna share what's working and help others succeed. Our customer advocacy program creates space for exactly that because you're doing incredible work, and your experience can help others do the same. Our customer ad customer advocacy programs give you multiple ways to get involved. Thanks, Callie. Blackbaud champions pass pass it off to Kevin, directly, and Gabe our product dive, into the road map, shape what we build next, quickly ground us on our vision and strategy. just in case you haven't joined us for previous prospective cost sessions this week. what's possible and feel confident choosing Blackbaud November, directly from the change makers new vision for your cause and our Or impact solutions success with. a customer story. Whether the core, a blog post, we're on a mission to connect a, guest spot on the what fuels, you podcast, and data through your chance to share something you're proud of with your community. AI. To find out more, please reach out to your customer success in. this round of product update briefings, Now I know you're ready to see what's coming next for Impact to. three new while you're watching, we are using an eye out for the listening icon Impact Edge. product development that has been shaped from, customer ideas and feedback. to remove friction on that note, from reporting. I'm excited for Terry to share our product vision quickly strategy. access, explore, and share insights through flexible dashboards and conversational analytics in Impact Edge without weeks of manual work. Intelligent impact is about moving beyond activity counts to real outcomes By bringing your data together and applying responsible AI, ImpactEdge helps you see what's working, uncover trends, and confidently tell your impact story with clarity and credibility. And through connected systems and connected experiences, data from giving, volunteering, grants, and engineering comes together. So leaders get a unified, trustworthy view of impact. Together. These themes are how impact edge helps you prove impact and make smarter, more informed decisions. If you join other sessions this week or in a previous cycle, you're familiar with how we use these time horizons to look at our road map. We'll start with what's available now, including capabilities that are already released and are ready for use today. Then we'll move to what's coming next, highlighting areas currently under development. And finally, we'll look ahead, sharing a view into the future areas of investment and direction. Let's start by taking a look at what we released on Impact Edge recently. We've delivered meaningful updates across Impact Edge that focus on making the experience more intuitive, more intelligent, and more connected. From an intuitive standpoint, customers now have tools like charity discovery, clearer program goals and metrics, and role based security to ensure the right access for the right teams. On the intelligent impact side, we're continuing to strengthen how data is grouped and surfaced within Blackbaud AI to drive clearer insights. And finally, across connected experiences, we've rolled out campaign improvements, the CECP giving a number to report, and the processing portal, bringing reporting, execution, and operations closer together. I'll pass it over to Kevin to start diving into the details. Thank you, Terry. Let's start with some recent releases aligned to our intuitive technology theme. I wanna highlight a feature in Impact Edge, and that's the ability to configure access based on custom roles, giving you more control of who sees what reports. So today, you can create roles and permissions that differentiate between your access to Blackbaud AI and the impact dashboards. But also within the impact dashboards, you have the ability to set permissions for who can access volunteering, giving, grants, and groups, giving you a lot of flexibility. And then coming soon, I'm excited about this one, we'll be introducing capabilities to control who sees what data, letting you scope data access by employee attribute like business unit or employee market. And remember, in Impact Edge, there are no user limits. So instead of emailing out reports, you can just create more Impact Edge users, giving them access to the data they need directly. Let's move on to the charity discovery tool released late last year. It was designed to help CSR professionals make smarter data backed decisions about where and how to direct your investments. This complimentary feature leverages integrated data from True Impact and Candid, giving you access to in-depth profiles on vetted charities, detailed community investment data, and even predicted cost per outcome or by true impact for potential investments. Beyond profiles, the tool enables you to discover and identify nonprofit partners based on SGG goals, target populations, and cause areas, ensuring alignment with your organization's priorities and pillars. By combining this rich external data with advanced filtering, Charity Discovery transforms partner selection from a manual time consuming process into a strategic insight driven experience, helping you invest where it matters most and maximizing your impact. And also look for updates coming later this year with more filter options and even faster performance. And, also, let's highlight program goals and metrics. This gives you the ability to track what matters most to your specific programs by customizing metrics and assigning goals. Whether you're focused on employee engagement, total donations, or volunteer events, you can align goals to these filterable metrics. So for example, you can monitor engagement rates of actuals versus targets by business unit or you can, monitor volunteer hours by job level. Some exciting updates are coming this year, including real time data refresh, auto updates to statuses, and additional data visualizations. Now I'm gonna pass it off to Jewel. Thanks, Kevin. Let's look at a capability we recently released to help you go beyond tracking activity into actually tracking impact. Our groups feature recently received its own dashboard, giving you deep visibility into how employee groups are engaging, giving you information on participation, retention, and engagement across both individual groups and group programs. Groups is a complimentary feature in CSR Connect. It brings employee like communities, together, so they can organize around affinities, DNI topics, locations, or CSR ambassador programs, and really bring those like interests together, and to life in the platform. They have a place to highlight nonprofit organizations, communicate about important initiatives, and promote volunteering events that motivate their group members to give back to their community. The new dashboard now connects the dots on a question we do hear often from CSR admins, and that's how do I know which of my employee groups are actually making an impact? Now with this single view into how your groups are performing across three key dimensions. The first is membership tracking. You can now see at a glance which groups are driving the most engagement, which ones are growing, which ones are plateauing, and what's really resonating with employees. That means you can prioritize your resources and investment where they'll have the greatest return. Second is group activity. This data goes beyond headcount, excuse me, and shows you which groups are actively engaging with their members, running events, launching initiatives, and generating real participation. You can evaluate the effectiveness of group led programs and gather the kind of insights you need for compelling storytelling, whether that's for leadership updates or for impact reporting. And third is program planning. Within the dashboard, you can see not just what's happening, but when. You can identify patterns and activity and plan ahead. Instead of pulling data manually before every planning cycle or meeting, you now have streamlined view that supports smarter, faster strategic decisions about where to invest in your group programs next. And what ties all of this together is the intelligent impact layer. The group's data is now feeding directly into our Blackbaud AI capabilities so that you can go beyond the dashboard now. You can ask it questions. You can help get some help surfacing trends, and you can turn raw activity, data into clear shareable narratives for the stakeholders that you're preparing information for. This is of interest to you and you would like to learn more about how Blackbaud AI, ties into not just the group's dashboard, but all of the Impact Edge dashboards, Kayla will be launching a survey later in the session. And within that survey, there is a question just for you. So you can, answer that question of your interest, and our team will reach out to you so that you can get more information and dive in. Alright. Let's head to Gabe for some more information about connected experiences. Thank you, Jewel. Now let's look at some releases related to our connected experiences theme. First off, we are excited to share that the CECP giving a number survey response guide is now available in Impact Edge. For the first time, our response guide includes volunteer giving and grants data side by side. We also leveraged our partnership with True Impact to include additional charity alignment definitions, helping you to prepare to better pair prepare your response, save time, and gain confidence. All ImpactEdge customers have easy access to the report via the new reporting resources tab. Another exciting update to ImpactEdge comes to our campaign dashboard. We recognize that our clients activate employees giving in different ways on CSR Connect. So we included giving and pledge data for Giving Tuesday activations, fundraisers, and engagement elements. You can compare against historical data or compare similar fundraisers and engagement elements to understand how activations stack up over time and the collective impact your employees are generating. We also added two new key stats by popular request, retained donor account and first time donor account. Now you can quickly see how many employees were activated to give again or activated to give for the first time. While seeing the collective impact of your donations and Impact Edge is great, we also want to ensure that you have visibility into how the the employee donations matches, and corporate match and corporate grants remit from your cause to our global network of 1,650,000 give eligible charity partners. We are currently rolling out processing portal, which lives next door to Impact Edge and access in the same Blackbaud engineering system experience to all customers who process charitable funds with us, by the May. Processing portal is inspired by fintech to give client administrators a transparent look at the status of every transaction, payment, and funding request for both CSR Connect and Grants Connect in a centralized easy to use platform. Processing portal functionality includes the ability to browse and download funding requests. There is no need to dig through your email or keep your own archives. We are now storing and presenting them for you. You can dive into the funding request and see line item totals and individual transactions. Should you want to add or remove transactions, processing portal allows you to submit a funding request revision directly to our processing team for review. No need to contact support anymore. My favorite feature of processing portal is the ability to search for transactions and payments without having to impersonate employees. Simply search by transaction ID, donor name, payment number, charity name, or any of the other fields we have included, and find the details you are looking for quickly. Clicking on a transaction or payment allows you to see detailed information and even a visual tracker that shows you exactly where the transaction is in our charitable funding process. By now, you have likely heard a ton about expedited giving and how we are speeding up our charitable funding process so your organization can see the impact of donations much faster. Processing portal enables this with our bank activity and prefund replenishments, which we'll talk about more on the next slide. And lastly, processing portal includes a deeply connected notifications hub to ensure client admins can stay up to date with your organization's charitable funding activities. Like I mentioned on the last slide, expedited giving was a big consideration for how we build the first set of features and processing portal. In order to expedite charitable funding to organizations within five business days, sometimes even as quick as ten minutes, we need funds readily available in prefund accounts. The bank activity page gives client admins a direct look into prefund accounts showing all deposits, transfers, adjustments, and withdrawals. Understanding your prefunds is a quick and e is quick and easy in the processing portal. Additionally, you can submit replenishment requests for your prefund accounts or set up an automation to replenish accounts as soon as they get low. So your charitable giving and your impact never slows down. With that, I will hand it back off to Jewel. Thank you, Gabe. I am so happy everyone got a sneak peek at the processing portal. It is such an exciting enhancement to the day to day work of our customers, and we are moving through that general availability towards the end of this month. And I just wanted to give a shout out. If you have not received an invite to the, launch and enablement webinars for processing portal and you are a current customer, you're more than welcome to let us know, today in the q and a or just reach out to your customer success manager, and we'll make sure that you have the link to that getting started webinar. But we are now going to head further into Impact Edge and start talking about, what's to come. And before we do that, we wanted to give you all a perspective of what it actually looks like to use Impact Edge in the days, the weeks, and the months as you operate. We do hear often, okay. I have this new tool. That's wonderful. But how does it really fit into my current workflow? Why would I change what I'm doing? And we want you to know that Impact Edge isn't just one more thing on your plate. It has been curated and created for you to replace the manual steps that you might be doing in pulling reports, building slide decks, and chasing down various numbers on the fly for stakeholders. So what I am going to do in the next few slides is talk about a simple rhythm of how you can start to adopt Impact Edge into your daily, weekly, and monthly, workflows. Kind of show you how a CSR admin actually lives inside Impact Edge now and not through aspirational cases. These are real workflows that our customers are running for themselves today. So let's go ahead and start with what can happen every work morning when you log in and open up Impact Edge. So when you look at daily use, think about checking program health at a glance, quickly logging in to monitor giving, volunteering, and grant activity using dynamic dashboards that update in near real time without having to export reports. Being able to answer the ad hoc questions that you always get very quickly, things like how's engagement trending? How much giving did we pull in yesterday? Which programs are the most active right now? And you can do that because we have prefiltered and prebuilt views that are also supported, by Blackbaud AI Insight. So you can spot early signals. You can identify dips or spikes in participation when you're having a push or a drive or a campaign before, something might become an issue. And you can do that very quickly across regions, programs, or time periods because of the prebuilt filters and widget views. So looking at the weekly run of show, this is when you're starting to look at your trends over time. This is a shorter period of time, but you're trying to see how things are going over the week. You can compare week over week performance to understand momentum, adoption, and start to see engagement patterns so that you can prepare updates for stakeholders. Think about getting ready for your weekly meeting. Use Blackbaud AI to then turn the charts and the metrics that you're seeing into clear summaries for your managers or your HR partners or CSR leadership in those meetings you're preparing for, and prioritize follow-up actions. Decide where to amplify communications this week or next week, maybe where to adjust some program design, or where you might need to focus on doing some outreach that you weren't planning on doing outreach before, but you can now quickly see in your data. And then we'll look into monthly. So this is where you can run consolidated program reviews. You can really take some deep thinking time to evaluate giving, volunteering, and grant activity altogether collectively without needing to go into multiple platforms or stitch together multiple reports and spreadsheets. You can create leadership ready summaries. Think about preparing for your monthly business review. You can generate accurate data backed narratives through Blackbaud AI that you can use for ESG, sustainability, or executive updates. You can measure progress against those long term goals that you might have set in the goals and metrics dashboard. You can validate results against internal objectives and benchmarks, and you can identify where you can adjust your strategy for the next program cycle or maybe the next month or quarter. So this is just a quick review of what Impact Edge does today. We hope that it helps to normalize some of the, data that you have now at your fingertips so quickly. But I'm really excited to pass off to Terry so that we can kick off the next section, which is all about, all of the upcoming enhancements that are going to make Impact Edge and Blackbaud AI even better. Great overview, Jewel. Thank you for spending a few minutes getting us thinking about all the ways that we can use Impact Edge. Now let's take a look at what's coming next. First, Gabe is going to walk us through some really exciting additions to reporting capabilities and Impact Edge, including the additions of standard reports and a report builder, supported by more granular data and faster data refreshes. Then we'll jump into Intelligent Impact and explore new benchmarking data that is on the way. Improvements we plan for Blackbaud AI and an update to our integration with True Impact and our involvement in the Impact Reporting Network. And we'll round out what's coming soon with updates on a rewards dashboard and a new grants report that support our connected experience work. Back over to Gabe. Thank you, Terry. I'm excited to talk about all of the intuitive technology improvements we have coming to Impact Edge. Over the next few months, we are expanding reporting in Impact Edge to include a report builder area, allowing you to create interactive standard reports and customize Power BI dashboards. Our new interactive standard report builder allows you to select, arrange, and then filter the columns relevant to your reporting needs. No more downloading and sorting through a 154 columns. You can also pivot in app by grouping columns however you would like while still seeing the transactional data underneath. The best part is that custom report configurations can be saved and accessed by all Impact Edge users. Also, a big part of the new report builder is the Power BI dashboard builder. We listened to your feedback about wanting to create customized Power BI dashboards and have opened up our connected semantic model that includes volunteer, giving, grants, and groups data together. Impact Edge users will now be equipped to create Power BI dashboards uncovering insights directly related to your goals. In our first look at the standard report builder, you will see a familiar interface replicated in Impact Edge. You can also see an in app tabular report that is ready to edit or export as you see fit. The first two reports we will release are everyone's favorites, the all giving report and the volunteer participation report. Soon after, we are planning on releasing a new and improved custom questions report. So our CRA clients on the line take note, an events report, and a pledge report. In our first look at the Power BI dashboard builder, you can see that we are offering the power of Power BI at your fingertips to create spectacular visuals from a wealth of data. These customized dashboards will also be easily available to all Impact Edge users. No separate licensing and access required. To close out Intuitive Impact, I want to briefly touch on faster data refreshes and more granular data. With the implementation of report builder, we will be able to increase refresh times in certain areas of Impact Edge. We are also able to unlock and include PII in the report builder area. Lastly, on the Impact Edge dashboards, we are greatly expanding the number of fields you can use to filter reports. We are delivering the data you requested and keeping it fresh so you can make informed decisions based on what happened today. Naturally, intuitive technology leads to intelligent impact, which are the features that I will be covering next. Our first item in this section is very exciting. We are infusing the CSR benchmarking report informed by real data from real programs into Impact Edge, allowing for year round benchmarking. You will have the ability to benchmark your program performance against your industry peers and against organizations of similar size. The benchmarking report is another way to show your organization winning in your market. Stay tuned for our next CSR industry review report release coming this summer. In earlier product update briefings this week, we talked about the impact reporting network, and this slide shows what it looks like in practice. Through our partnership with True Impact, we're building short, focused impact assessments directly into Blackbaud verified network. These assessments help nonprofits move beyond counting activities and into measuring real outcomes in a way that's consistent, credible, and practical for them to complete. The verified outcomes data then flows into the impact reporting network and into your cause reporting tools like ImpactEdge. And over time, it'll flow directly into Grants Connect, giving funders like you clearer, more comparable insight into the impact your dollars are driving. This is a broader effort to create shared standards for impact reporting, allowing your costs to deliver better data to funders without adding unnecessary burden for nonprofits. This slide shows a prototype of how we're designing the impact assessments, which we're targeting to release later this year. These assessments will live within the Blackbaud verified network, our free portal for nonprofits, making them easy to access and complete as part of their existing profile. The key idea here is simplicity. Nonprofits complete the assessment once, and that verified outcomes data can then be shared across all of your your cause programs and throughout the broader impact reporting network. This means fewer duplicative reporting requests for nonprofits and more consistent comparable impact data for funders. ImpactEdge will also benefit further from our partnership with True Impact. Customers who are also customers of True Impact will be able to request deeper targeted impact assessments directly from recipients in Grants Connect. Data from those impact assessments will be available for reporting at Impact Edge alongside data from CSR Connect and Grants Connect. Our partnership with True Impact enables discoverability, decision making, and storytelling, and also demonstrates how individual actions translate into impact. Thank you, and I will hand it off to Kevin to talk about Blackbaud AI. Thank you, Gabe. We have a lot of exciting improvements in the works for Blackbaud AI and Impact Edge. We are investing in better conversational understanding so that VBAI can handle even more complex natural language questions, allowing you to ask questions the way you think and get accurate answers. We are also going beyond the numbers where BBAI will be able to read and service insights from narrative text in your CSR data such as event descriptions and not just structured data fields. And then we continue to expand capabilities beyond conversational analytics at a nonprofit, lookup, data interpretation, and a CSR advisor, giving you a more powerful assistant assistant right inside of your workflow. And to round out what's coming next, I'll walk through connected experiences innovations that are coming soon. So coming soon to Impact Edge is our matching and incentives dashboard where you can track match caps and budgets across all of your incentive and reward programs in one place. So you always know how much has been spent, what's in processing, and what's remaining. You'll be able to monitor how employees are actually engaging with each incentive following the full pipeline from hours accrued and incentives issued all the way through to completed donations. And most importantly, you can assess whether your reward programs are working, comparing participation rates, and engagement trends across programs to understand what's actually driving employee giving and volunteering. We are also reimagining grant reporting and Impact Edge around four core jobs of the grant manager, measuring impact, running efficient operations, maintaining financial oversight, and managing recipients. Each of these will get its own dedicated dashboard. So let's take a look. We're gonna start with impact because that is where you ultimately need to tell your story. The core question this dashboard answers is the where, the who, and the what type of impact. Geographic impact shows where funding is reaching, which customers consistently need for internal and external reporting. Grants are categorized by SGG or NTE codes, a standardized way to align to a broader impact frameworks, especially useful across multiple programs and regions. And we surface who is being served through population groupings so teams can validate funding can validate funding as reaching the intended communities. This turns impact reporting from a static exercise into something teams can actively manage and learn from. Next is the operations dash dashboard, and it's really focused on helping teams grant teams actively manage the workflow through the grant cycle. It provides a real time view into how applications are moving through the review process, where volume is concentrating and where delays might be emerging. Key signals like media and time to decision, in stage work in progress, and application aging allow a program administrator and reviewer to to spot bottlenecks early and intervene before backlog builds. The workflow funnel also makes it easy to see where applications slow down while trend views show whether changes to staffing or policy or in process are actually improving review speed time. Together, these views give teams the context they need to prioritize work, reduce the applicant wait times, and run the grant, pipeline more predictably and efficiently. The recipient's dashboard is going to be split into two distinct reports, organizations and individuals, because they represent very different kinds of grant, relationships and require different kinds of reporting. For organizations, the focus is on managing long term partnerships or or awards with nonprofits, understanding funding history, and focus area alignment. This helps program teams maintain strong relationships and identify opportunities for continued partnership. For individuals, the focus shifts to fairness, distribution, and confidentiality, monitoring how grants are distributed across populations, job levels, or grant types, while supporting equity focused analysis and not exposing sensitive details. By separating these views, the dashboard avoids forcing one reporting model to serve two very different use cases. And instead, it's gonna give a clearer picture, more appropriate insight into both organizational impact and individual level programs. And finally, the financial dashboard is designed to give program teams and finance partners confidence in how grant dollars are managed from start to finish. It connects budgets, awards, commitments, and payments in a single view so teams can see not just how much has been awarded, but how funds are actually flowing over time. By visualizing budget burn down and, and utilization by program, it becomes easier to understand pacing across funding cycles and identify where spending may be ahead or behind plan. The awards to payment view highlights the transition from decision to disbursement, helping teams spot delays or gaps before they become problems. Overall, this view supports strong financial stewardship by making grant spending more transparent, predictable, and accountable while helping organizations maximize the impact of available resources. Now I'll pass it back to Terry to close this out with our looking ahead horizon. Thanks, Kevin. And thank you, Jewel and Gabe too. So many exciting updates are coming soon, and I'm excited to close today's presentation with a quick look ahead at the key themes driving our innovation in the long term. Before we close out, I wanna bring your attention to a survey that has launched on the right hand side of your screen. We'd love to hear your feedback from today's session. We'll continue to learn and lean into our themes, intuitive technology, intelligent impact, and connected experiences, all with the goal to make reporting frictionless and impact easier to measure. With intuitive technology, we have a strong focus on global capabilities over the next few quarters. This will include adding more languages, multi currency capabilities, and deepening role based access with the ability to align by geography. These improvements will make more Impact Edge not only more intuitive for your global users, but also easier to access. With Intelligent Impact, we're really energized about the work we have started to equip you with more tools to tell your story. We're going beyond dashboards and reports. The verified outcomes data that we're bringing to Impact Edge will help fuel insights in upcoming functionality like the one you see on the screen here. Imagine being able to transform your program data into impact reporting, and then that impact and outcomes data into ready to use content like what you see here on the screen. Now, more than ever telling your story of impact and securing and maintaining buy in for your programs is vital. We're working to bring you the kind of tools that will help you tell that story easier. And last but not least, we're focused on your cost solutions on bringing all of your work into one place. Our new processing portal is accessible right alongside Impact Edge in the omnibar experience. And later this year and and into 2027, we will migrate over our CSR Connect and Grants Connect admin experiences into the same space, giving one place to do all of your work across our solutions. Thank you so much for joining Gabe, Kevin, Jewel, Cali, and myself for today's internal session. Please be sure to send us your feedback so we can continue to pro practice content and of of our, in our experiences in the ImpactEdge platform. Thanks again and take care.
