For small businesses, non-profits, and NGOs
A structured, guided assessment across cyber, financial, operational, compliance, reputational, and mission-continuity risk. One methodology, one afternoon, one deliverable your board, donors, or funders can actually read.
A guided walkthrough that produces a risk register your board or funders can read without translation.
Comparable scores across operational, strategic, and governance risk — not a stack of disconnected checklists.
Recommendations ranked by impact and effort so the highest-return fix is clear.

Risk domain coverage
Illustrative organization risk domains — framed for boards, funders, and lean operating teams. Domains marked not in scope are available to include in future engagements.
Priority remediations
No documented ED succession plan
Leadership continuity depends on one executive — the board has no named interim authority or trigger events for transition.
Donor concentration risk
One donor family represents roughly a third of unrestricted giving, with no diversification plan on the board agenda.
Controls gap for donor-facing incidents
Access and incident response practices would not withstand a donor-data incident during a public fundraising cycle.
Recommended next step
Document an executive-director succession plan and present the prioritized risk register to the audit committee at the next quarterly meeting.
Illustrative sample for NGOs, nonprofits, and small organizations. Live product domains may differ as organization methodology expands.
How it works
Three steps designed for organizations without a dedicated risk team.
A guided assessment across every relevant category, in plain language, completable in an afternoon or split across a working session with the board.
One coherent view of where the organization is exposed, with comparable scores across categories and a summary a board member or funder can read without briefing.
Recommendations ranked by impact and effort, so the highest-return next step is the one Akili tells you to take — not the loudest urgency of the week.
Who it's for
The same methodology wealth advisors use for households — framed for organizations assessing themselves.
A small architecture practice with twenty-five staff, no CISO, and no dedicated compliance lead. The managing partner is the de-facto risk owner on top of running the firm. A new institutional client has asked for a completed cyber-and-controls questionnaire before the engagement can proceed. Akili gives the partner a structured walkthrough they can finish in an afternoon and a board-ready summary the client will accept.
A regional community foundation with a lean staff and an active board. The audit committee has asked for a formal risk register for two years. The executive director keeps intending to build one, but grantmaking cycles keep displacing the work. Akili turns that blank-page obligation into a guided assessment the ED can complete and bring to the next board meeting.
An NGO operating programs across three countries, answering to institutional funders who expect business-continuity and safeguarding documentation. There is no dedicated compliance officer. Akili surfaces cross-border, reputational, and operational gaps in one methodology so the country directors and HQ share a single picture of exposure.
Sample case study
Regional community foundation. Roughly $42M AUM, grantmaking across four counties.
Illustrative
The problem. The audit committee had asked for a formal risk register for two years running. The executive director kept intending to build one, but the work kept getting displaced by grantmaking cycles. The insurance broker had also flagged that the D&O policy was underwritten against a stale risk profile.
What they did. The executive director completed the assessment across all ten pillars in a single afternoon, then reviewed the output with the board chair. It surfaced three material gaps: a concentration in one donor family representing 34% of unrestricted giving, no documented ED succession plan, and cyber controls that would not survive a donor-facing incident.
Outcome. Within six months the foundation had a documented succession plan, a diversified donor-outreach program, and a cyber-controls uplift that satisfied the D&O renewal. Total staff time: roughly fourteen hours across the ED, ops manager, and board chair.
