Built From Nonprofit Experience, Not Guesswork
We're not a tech company making assumptions about what you need. We've lived this problem from the inside.
We know the frustration of misalignment. We've been executive directors, strategy leaders, and senior staff in nonprofits. We've felt the invisible barriers. We've watched talented teams burn out despite working incredibly hard.
When we couldn't find a system that actually solved the alignment problem, we built it. And we did so with decades of technical expertise and leadership experience—not theory, but hard-won wisdom about what actually works.
We're continually refining JOD as we learn more about what is working for our nonprofit partners. Your success (not our feature list) is the measure of whether we are getting it right.

How JustOrg Design Came To Be
After 25 years as an executive director, strategy consultant, and board member, Jeanne had witnessed the same painful patterns across hundreds of justice-committed organizations. Brilliant strategies kept stalling. Talented people burned out trying to collaborate across structures that fought their efforts. She realized the problem wasn't the people or the plans—it was that nonprofit organizations aren't designed for strategic alignment.
When Jeanne decided to build a solution, she knew exactly who to call. Dan had spent decades on the forefront of organizational structures—Agile, Matrix Model staffing, managing large teams grappling with the same alignment challenges in Fortune 100 companies and Silicon Valley startups. He was ready for work that mattered, and this felt like what he'd been building toward his entire career. We built JOD because we'd both been solving this problem from different angles, and justice-committed nonprofits deserve a purpose-built system—not a generic tool adapted from another sector. Your success is why we built this in the first place.
