What is the minimum required database size and data requirements to use Dataro?

For Dataro Predict, the minimum database size required is 10,000 records.

For Dataro Fundraising Intelligence, there is no minimum database size

We recommend reaching out to our team to chat further about how we can support you if you have fewer than 10,000 donor records. 

The Dataro system can flexibly adapt to many fundraising CRMs. You are almost certainly capturing the minimum data that we require as part of your fundraising operations (i.e. soliciting and receiving donations).
