Built for nonprofits, by people who know nonprofits
GrovLink exists because the organizations doing the most important work in our communities have been priced out of the tools that could amplify their impact.

A platform born from real nonprofit work
For years, our team at UpStart Productions partnered with nonprofits (relief nurseries, university programs, state agencies, community health initiatives), building tools and solving problems alongside the people doing the work. We saw up close how hard it is to reach clients, volunteers, and donors in a fragmented, noisy world.
Many organizations wanted a mobile app but had been quoted $40,000 to $100,000 just to get started, and that was before ongoing maintenance, updates, and app store fees. So they made do with email blasts, Facebook posts, and scattered text chains.
GrovLink was built to close that gap. One shared platform any nonprofit can brand as its own, with its colors, logo, and modules living in the app stores under its name. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, nonprofit-friendly pricing.
The principles behind the platform
These aren't just words on a wall. They shape every product decision, every pricing tier, and every conversation we have with a nonprofit partner.
Access for all sizes
A neighborhood food bank deserves the same quality mobile experience as a national charity. Size shouldn't determine access to great tools.
Partnership, not projects
We're not selling software and walking away. We're in this for the long haul, and we care most about whether you succeed.
Stewardship of resources
Nonprofits earn every dollar. Our pricing reflects that. No hidden fees, no bait-and-switch tiers, no surprise overages.
Purpose-driven design
Every new feature has to pass a simple test first. Does it help a nonprofit serve its community better? If not, we don't build it.
Simplicity as strength
The best tools stay out of the way. GrovLink should feel effortless for your staff and intuitive for everyone they serve.
Radical transparency
Clear pricing, honest timelines, and straightforward contracts. We say what we mean and mean what we say.
A small team with a focused mission
GrovLink is a product of UpStart Productions, a technology studio based in the Pacific Northwest. Since 2000, UpStart Productions has partnered with nonprofits, universities, and public agencies to build technology that actually serves people.
GrovLink is the natural evolution of that work, taking everything we've learned from two decades of nonprofit technology partnerships and packaging it into a platform any organization can use, starting today.
We're a lean team. That keeps us honest, keeps us focused, and keeps our costs and yours reasonable.
Technology that serves your
mission.
