(FAQs)

1. What is simpact AI?

simpact AI is an AI-augmented impact storytelling process that helps community organisations and funders turn qualitative data - like interviews, stories and field notes - into compelling, insight-driven reports. Our process blends the best of human insight with the power of AI.

2. Who is simpact AI for?

SImpact is primarily designed for:

  • Community organisations looking to showcase their work and outcomes clearly and powerfully.

  • Funders and intermediaries seeking standardised, scalable, and insightful reports from grantees or partners.

3. How does the simpact AI process work?

We follow a 5-step workflow:

  1. Data Collection (Conversation)
    – Gather stories via Zoom + Otter.ai or upload your own.

  2. Data Analysis (Sense-making)
    – We process transcripts with AI to extract insights.

  3. Report Writing (Drafts)
    – A first draft is generated using those insights.

  4. Report Design (Deliverables)
    – Visualised using AI design tools.

  5. Final Review
    – A human editor ensures quality, tone, and narrative integrity.

4. What kind of data do I need to provide?

We primarily work with:

  • Interview transcripts

  • Field notes

  • Strategic documents

  • Testimonials

  • Photos or multimedia (optional but helpful)

We’ll guide you through this step to ensure it's as smooth as possible.

5. Is the output customisable?

Yes! Depending on what pricing tier you decide, you can choose from various report styles, formats, and depths depending on your audience - whether it’s for internal learning, board reporting, or donor engagement.

6. How is my data kept secure and confidential?

We take privacy seriously. All uploaded data is encrypted and handled under strict data protection protocols. We do not share or use your data outside of your reporting process. We also highly encourage you to only share information that you feel comfortable sharing in the public domain, as ideally your Impact Report will be shared publicly.

7. How long does it take to get a report?

Depending on the length and complexity of the data, we’ve been told the traditional impact reporting process can take around 2-3 months.

However, this reimagined simpact AI impact reporting process takes as little as 2-3 weeks.

This depends on your co-operation in scheduling our calls and supplying data.
