For nonprofits and associations
One home for the volunteers, the staff, and the members who fund it all.
If you run a nonprofit or a membership association, your "community" is really three communities wearing a trench coat: a handful of staff, a rotating cast of volunteers, and the members or donors the whole thing exists to serve. Right now they're scattered across a Facebook Group, a Mailchimp list, a WhatsApp thread for the board, and an events tool you renew once a year and resent. Connect is what you use when you want all three groups in one branded home — without a per-seat invoice that punishes you for growing the very thing you're trying to grow.
Where the existing tools break.
Per-seat pricing is built for companies, not movements.
Slack, Teams, and most "community" SaaS charge per seat. A 2,000-member association on that model is a budget line that eats a program. So you fall back to a free Facebook Group, hand Meta your member relationship, and watch the algorithm decide which of your own posts your own members see.
Your chapters and your HQ live on different islands.
Regional chapters, local affiliates, special-interest sections — each one spins up its own Facebook Group or WhatsApp, with its own admin, its own login, its own notification stream. National can't see what's happening locally, knowledge never crosses chapters, and a volunteer who moves cities loses their whole network.
Mobilizing for a campaign means starting from scratch every time.
An advocacy push, a fundraising drive, a call-to-action on a bill — you blast an email, hope it gets opened, and have no live surface where members can actually rally, coordinate, and see each other showing up. The energy peaks in your inbox and dies there.
Volunteer onboarding is tribal knowledge.
"How do I run a chapter meeting?" "Where's the brand kit?" "Who approves event spend?" Every new volunteer asks the same questions, gets answered once in a DM, and that answer is gone. Your operating playbook lives in three long-time members' heads — and ages out when they burn out.
How Connect fits.
Flat, per-tenant pricing — not per-member.
Free is one public workspace up to 50 members — enough to pilot with a single chapter. Growth is $49/month flat for ~500 members. Professional is $119/month for up to 5 workspaces at 2,500 members each. A growing membership costs the same as a small one. Custom (talk-to-sales) removes the limits and adds SSO/SAML for federated national bodies.
A workspace per chapter, one brand, one identity.
On Professional+ run up to 5 workspaces under one tenant — HQ, plus chapters or sections — each on your own domain (members.yourcause.org), all under one Auth0 organisation so a member has a single login everywhere. National sees across; a relocating volunteer keeps their identity and standing. Custom tier lifts the workspace cap for federations with many affiliates.
A feed for the campaign, channels for the rally, events for the turnout.
The social feed carries announcements, advocacy calls-to-action, polls, and milestone wins as first-class posts with their own URLs — not a footnote scrolling past in chat. Real-time channels give a campaign a live room where members coordinate and see each other show up. Events have a shareable full-page URL and a built-in video call, so a webinar, town hall, or AGM runs inside the same place members already are.
Q&A and articles turn your playbook into a findable surface.
Threaded Q&A with accepted answers means "how do I run a chapter meeting?" gets answered once and stays the canonical answer. Long-form articles hold the brand kit, the bylaws explainer, the volunteer handbook. Full-text search spans posts, articles, Q&A, and chat — so onboarding a volunteer stops depending on which veteran happens to be online. AI catch-me-up on Growth+ (your own provider key, no markup) lets a part-time volunteer skim a busy channel in one paragraph.
Connect is the right fit when your members, volunteers, and staff should share one branded home and you refuse to rent that relationship from Facebook or pay per head to grow a movement. Where it is not the fit: if you need donor CRM, grant management, or payment processing, Connect is not that — it's the community layer that sits alongside your fundraising stack, not a replacement for it.
