Unlock the major gifts your data already knows about.
DFX Intel helps advancement offices identify major donor opportunity surfaces, map alumni and affinity networks, and accelerate capital campaigns with intelligence that goes far beyond traditional prospect research.
Advancement teams are leaving major gifts unfound.
Four structural gaps hold back even well-resourced advancement offices - each compounding the others, each fixable with a structured intelligence layer over data you already own.
- 01
Prospect research is manual and slow
Development officers spend weeks researching individual prospects while high-value donors go unidentified in the existing database.
- 02
Giving capacity is guesswork
Without structured intelligence on wealth signals, giving history across institutions, and affinity indicators, capacity ratings are unreliable.
- 03
Alumni networks are unmapped
Universities sit on decades of alumni data but lack the tools to map relationship clusters and identify influence patterns across their networks.
- 04
Capital campaigns lack precision
Major campaigns set ambitious targets but the targeting underneath is too broad - advancement teams are spread across too many prospects with too little signal.
Advancement intelligence for the modern campaign.
DFX Intel operates as a structured intelligence layer across your prospect pool, alumni network, and the public signals that indicate capacity, affinity, and timing.
Major Donor Segmentation
Score and segment your prospect pool by capacity, affinity, giving signals, and engagement indicators - not just past giving alone.
Alumni Network Intelligence
Map alumni and affinity networks to identify relationship clusters, influence nodes, and connection pathways to major prospects.
Giving Cluster Identification
Discover donor clusters you didn't know existed - groups linked by industry, geography, boards, or shared philanthropic interests.
Advancement Targeting
Prioritize development officer time on the highest-probability, highest-value prospects with structured intelligence on each.
Campaign Opportunity Mapping
Map the full opportunity surface for a capital campaign - where the capacity is, who the connectors are, and what the giving triggers look like.
Cross-Institution Intelligence
See where your prospects are giving elsewhere. Understand competitive dynamics across peer institutions and philanthropic priorities.
Beyond traditional prospect research.
Traditional prospect research finds names. DFX Intel maps the full opportunity surface - relationships, capacity signals, affinity clusters, and the pathways that lead to major gifts.

Identify prospects with genuine connection to your institution and mission - not just wealth.
Network-aware intelligence
See how prospects are connected to each other, to your institution, and to your existing donors.

Give your capital campaign a sharper, more targeted foundation from day one.
Your next major gift is already in your database.
DFX Intel helps you find it, understand it, and close it - with intelligence that goes far beyond what traditional prospect research can deliver.
