Case Study: Brian Impact Foundation reviews 100x more candidates with Claude

Brian Impact Foundation powers their search for the next generation of social innovators with Claude

The Brian Impact Foundation, a nonprofit supporting social innovators using technology, faced the challenge of equitably reviewing a vast number of fellowship applicants with its lean team of 13 people. Their manual process was too time-consuming and resource-intensive, potentially causing them to miss worthy candidates. They turned to vendor Claude and its platform to help scale their operations.

The solution involved building the BEES platform, which used Claude to process and summarize large amounts of unstructured data from the web to identify and evaluate candidates. With Claude, the foundation reviewed 100 times more candidates (20,000 vs. 200) and tripled the number of reviews conducted per applicant. This allowed the small team to manage a much larger, more equitable selection process and confidently support the most deserving innovators.
