Build Your Donor Outreach AI Agent, for fundraisers and nonprofit leaders

​This one is for fundraisers, grantmakers, and nonprofit leaders.

​This is the sprint philanthropy AI agent I run myself. You hand it a donor list, a goal, and a deadline. It keeps the campaign in a Google Sheet, checks where you stand every morning, and drafts the next outreach, then waits for a human yes before anything sends. The relationship with the donor stays with you.

​Bring a list of ten donors and a real goal.

​We build on Gumloop. You tell it what to do in plain English, no code. If you’ve never built an AI agent before, that’s fine. If you’ve built one with me before and you’re coming back for your next one, even better.

​What to do before the session:

​Create your Gumloop account ahead of time. Start the 14-day trial here: https://www.gumloop.com/?via=personalaiagents and have it open and logged in before we start.

​Come on a laptop or desktop, charged. The platform does not work on a phone or tablet.

​Be on time. We start right at the top of the hour. Every step builds on the one before it, so if you miss the first five minutes you’ll be catching up the whole time. If you’re running late, let me know and I’ll send you an invite to the next session instead.

​Hold the full hour. I don’t record these. After the build, I stay on for Q&A. Bring your questions.

​Why Gumloop and not ChatGPT or Claude? You can set up AI agents in those tools, but we build on Gumloop for three reasons: it’s easy to set up without a technical background, you can switch the brain of your AI agent between models (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini), and it runs on a schedule while you sleep. With ChatGPT or Claude, you have to be on your device for the AI agent to run.

​If you decide to keep your AI agent running past the trial, code 1STAGENT gets you 20% off your first month. Completely optional.
