FRUIT Impact vs Impact Genome Registry

FRUIT Impact is a web platform for measuring impact across nonprofit, NGO, foundation, ESG, social enterprise, university, civic, and faith-based programs. Organizations can define targets such as individuals, households, geographic areas, demographic cohorts, groups, and other organizations. They can build surveys, composite indices, and assessments using multiple-choice, Likert, open-text, or numeric questions with custom scoring logic. Observations can be captured on mobile devices, tablets, or desktops, online or offline, and synced to a central database. FRUIT calculates metrics from observations and supports trend analysis, segmentation, and user-defined calculations. Users can model future impact from historical data, growth assumptions, resource constraints, and time horizons. Admin, Program Manager, and Field Collector roles have different access levels; actions are logged with timestamps and user attribution. The product says submitted observations cannot be edited or deleted by administrators. The free FRUIT Seed plan is free and includes 2 targets, 2 brands, 1 admin user, and AI Insights. Paid plans are FRUIT Grow at $39 a month, FRUIT Steward at $119 a month, and FRUIT Harvest at $399 a month.

Impact Genome Registry is a web service for standardizing and verifying social program outcomes. Nonprofits and social enterprises can report programs against one or more of 132 standardized outcomes spanning education, public health, human needs, arts and culture, and other areas. The Registry describes coverage of more than 2.2 million global nonprofits and social programs. Program information is self-reported, and verification uses data that programs already collect. Trained verifiers review annual impact claims and supporting evidence through standardized protocols. Verified programs may receive a Verified Impact Report and Verified Impact Units representing positive social outcomes. Nonprofit membership includes a one-to-one consultation, an annually shareable report, benchmarking, research tools, webinars, and ongoing support. Funder tools include charity search, impact forecasting, and portfolio analysis. Free self-reporting costs nothing; nonprofit membership costs $1,000, paid once per program.
