Your EIN, one question,
and you're done thinking
about state compliance.
Paste your EIN. We find your organization in public records, open the California and New York AG registries to see what they already say about you, then ask one question — where do you fundraise? Out comes your whole statutory calendar: every deadline, every fee, every exemption, with the provision behind each one. No account, no email, no card.

The 35 that need review have passed due dates. We don't know if they were filed — confirm each so we never invent past due. $3,365.25 in fees is at stake, plus 2 filings with fees still TBD. New York and Massachusetts are inside their auto-extension.

This is the filing calendar the product builds for a nationwide 501(c)(3) at this revenue.
Same engine, same rows, fictional name.
No surprises
Three steps, and only one of them is yours
- Step 1 · about 8 seconds
We open your public record
Legal name, subsection, fiscal year end, and latest 990 revenue — then we query the California and New York AG registries live and show you the registry status they hold for you, verbatim.
- Step 2 · one click
You tell us where you fundraise
One question, because no public dataset reliably says where an organization solicits. Fundraise nationwide? That's a single button. Only a few states? Pick them.
- Step 3 · instant
Your calendar is already built
Deadlines from your fiscal year end under each state's own rule, fees resolved against your revenue band, exemptions applied, 14 state forms ready to pre-fill. This engine runs for paying customers every day — you're seeing the same one.
The one question we ask
We could guess where you fundraise. We won't.
Plenty of tools will infer your obligations from your address and call it a compliance profile. Nothing in public IRS data reliably says where an organization solicits — so that inference is a guess, and a compliance calendar built on a guess is worse than no calendar, because you'll trust it.
So we ask, once, and we make it one click. Everything after that question is computed from statute and carries the provision it came from.

Why you can act on it
Every number has a statute behind it
Compliance advice you can't verify is worthless to a board. Click any field and you get the provision, the agency, the source, and when we last checked it.

Why this is worth eight seconds
A lapse is enforceable in every state where you solicit
Registration lapses aren't only late fees. In 27 of the 51 jurisdictions the statute we cite carries criminal language, and in 14 it reaches felony — though usually for narrow conduct like knowing violations or paid solicitors, not a late renewal. We publish the exact mechanism and provision for all 51, so you can read your own exposure instead of taking our word for it.

Where this is going
The goal isn't a better compliance tool. It's not having to think about compliance.
A nonprofit shouldn't spend sixty hours a year decoding fee tables written for lawyers, or $7,000 paying someone else to. We're building toward the point where you tell us your EIN once and never handle a state filing again — at a fraction of what the alternative costs.
Today
We tell you exactly what to file, when, and what it costs — with the statute behind every number, and 14 state forms pre-filled.
In progress
Automatic re-checks from public records, so your calendar stays right without you touching it.
Next
Filing on your behalf, where the state permits it. Your attestation, our paperwork.
Pricing
Cheaper than the penalty. Far cheaper than the alternative.
The EIN check and the calendar are free to see. You pay when you want it watched — reminders, pre-filled forms, exports.
