The data platform for the social sector
Unify your data, programs, and reporting in one streamlined platform. Avandar lets you analyze, visualize, and monitor your programs faster than ever before at a fraction of the cost.
Reality today
Resource-constrained teams lack a go-to data platform that is both powerful and affordable. Big Tech has treated the nonprofit sector as an afterthought.
Why Avandar
Avandar can be used for any social cause: climate action, epidemic response, food security, anything. Manage all your data, all your programs, in one platform.
How it's possible
We've implemented a new data architecture optimized for the social sector that is cheaper, faster, and never sacrifices your data quality or privacy.
The gap
80% of nonprofits lack the digital tools to support their mission
Nonprofits are drowning in data, juggling scattered donor lists, reports, and operations with limited resources.
Teams with better digital tools are 4x more likely to achieve their mission goals.
New program launches
Data multiplies quickly
Teams struggle to keep up
Programs stall. Staff gets overwhelmed. People get left behind.

Avandar Labs was founded by Juan Pablo Sarmiento, a software engineer and public health professional who has seen firsthand how “Big Tech” prioritizes profits over people. This has left the social sector paying for tools that weren't made for them just to stay afloat.
Avandar is the first end-to-end data management platform built exclusively for the social sector from its very first line of code. With backgrounds in full stack software engineering, public health, humanitarian response, and international development, Avandar is dedicated to providing the digital tools that meet the needs of teams that are uplifting their communities and saving lives.
Avandar is a fully customizable data management platform. You can tailor it to any program, domain, or mission thanks to Avandar's plugin marketplace.
From public health to climate, from donor tracking to humanitarian relief, Avandar helps you manage it all.
Avandar isn't built for traditional “big data” in the tech industry sense—think petabytes, real-time streams, and massive distributed systems. The reality is that most nonprofits don't need that. Thanks to computational advancements, what used to require “big data” infrastructure can now be handled far more cheaply. But most tech companies still build their products for a data scale that most of the social sector doesn't need.
We've designed Avandar for the “missing middle.” Nonprofits with too much data for a spreadsheet, but not enough to justify expensive big tech solutions. If your organization has tens of thousands to hundreds of millions of rows, Avandar can support you quickly, affordably, and without the overhead of tools built for much larger use cases.
You don't have to migrate your data to start using Avandar. It can connect with your existing tools, such as Google Sheets, Airtable, Salesforce, Postgres, and more, so you get a unified view of your work, fast.
Not at all. Avandar is built for the entire social sector, not just nonprofits. That includes government agencies, multilateral organizations, mission-driven businesses, and even individuals working to make an impact in their communities. If your work aims to improve lives and strengthen communities, Avandar is built for you.
Ready when you are
Your mission deserves a platform built for you
Don't waste time with clunky tools and scattered data that slow your team down. Avandar was built for resource-constrained teams that deserve the power of high tech, priced for their realities, without ever sacrificing quality.
