Mission

Beta4Dev gives nonprofits and social enterprises the tools for communicating social impact. Investors expect that social ventures can provide objective and transparent information that quantifies their achievements, using commonly accepted metrics. We can help you deliver.

Impact Metrics

Impact Benchmarks

Every mission-driven organization needs a metric that captures progress toward that mission. Choosing the right metric makes all the difference.

Web Dashboards

A good web dashboard is more than just a table full of numbers. First, it has to look good. Second, it has to explain to a general audience where you stack up relative to the rest of the world.

Benchmarks for social impact are just as important as impact evaluations. A benchmark tells you how your results stack up in a changing world.

Values

Our values are embedded in our design: simple metrics, using objective data, with no hidden assumptions, and meaningful context.

Your organization probably has more data about social impact than you communicate. Every nonprofit can track program outcomes, even if you don't have the resources for an impact evaluation.

You can use the data you already possess to communicate your results.

Dashboards vs. Impact Evaluations

Organizations that have not yet conducted a rigorous impact evaluation can benefit from impact dashboards. A good dashboard will compare program outcomes to a benchmark. The dashboard will not prove causal impact, but it will illustrate results in context.

Organizations that have already conducted rigorous impact evaluations can also benefit from impact dashboards. An impact dashboard provides non-technical information about current program outcomes. It uses intuitive data visualizations to engage potential investors.
