“Can a lightweight workflow layer on top of nonprofit general ledgers become the system of record for restricted-fund management?”
KarmaSuite is an early-stage vertical SaaS company (~10 employees) focused on restricted fund and grant management for nonprofits. It sits on top of the customer's existing general ledger rather than replacing it — positioning as a workflow layer for grants tracking, expense allocation, and impact reporting. Backed by Urban Innovation Fund and Fractal, with distribution partnerships through Blackbaud and NGMA. No embedded finance product footprint: KarmaSuite does not move money, issue cards, or lend. Their financial-adjacent story is entirely on the accounting-connector side.
KarmaSuite integrates with QuickBooks, Sage and NetSuite.
KarmaSuite was founded by Srikar Chinam and is headquartered in San Francisco, California, United States.
KarmaSuite has raised $4.5M in total (latest round: Seed, $3.5M (led by Urban Innovation Fund)).
