Case Study: ClientEarth scales fundraising due diligence capacity with Xapien

Scaling the fundraising team’s capacity for due diligence at ClientEarth

ClientEarth, a global environmental charity, faced the challenge of conducting stringent due diligence on potential corporate partners to manage significant reputational risk. Without a dedicated researcher, their fundraising team needed a tool to quickly and independently investigate corporations and their links to environmental concerns. They turned to Xapien to implement its AI-powered research platform.

Xapien automated the open-source research process, enabling fundraisers to generate complex due diligence reports in under 15 minutes. The solution provided clear summaries, risk analysis, and a collaborative platform for sharing findings. This significantly grew the team's capacity, shortened the time between prospect research and gift acceptance, and empowered junior staff to identify risks confidently, all while ensuring GDPR compliance through its use of public data.
