The story
Founded in 2010, Anedot positioned itself as a privacy-first online fundraising platform serving nonprofits, churches, political campaigns, and schools. Unlike competitors who rely on third-party payment processors visible to donors, Anedot markets itself as both processor and platform, controlling the financial stack end-to-end. The company has grown to serve over 30,000 U.S.-based organizations and has processed billions of dollars in online giving, differentiating on data privacy (never selling donor data) and simple transparent pricing.
