One place to grow your organisation

Each tool is useful on its own. Together, each step leads naturally to the next.

Organisation profile

Mission, countries, themes and programme experience, with visibility you control field by field.

Who can join

Manual verification

A trained reviewer checks your evidence and records exactly what was confirmed, and when.

How verification works

Capacity assessment

Eight areas from governance to impact measurement, with findings you can act on straight away.

The Vision Network model

Verify, diagnose, develop, connect, fund, measure

A guide, not a gate. Select a stage to see what you do, what you get, and what it deliberately doesn't claim.

    How we build it

    Designed to be trusted, not just used

    These principles guide every design and product decision, from the first pilot onwards.

    Honest by default

    Every label says what it means. No invented scores, no inflated numbers, and a clear line between what's live and what's planned.

    Private by design

    Evidence and assessment answers stay private. Organisations choose what's public and preview it before publishing.

    People make decisions

    Trained reviewers make verification decisions, with reasons, review dates and a route to appeal.

    Accessible to all

    Designed to meet WCAG 2.2 AA: keyboard friendly, readable contrast, plain language and light pages for slow connections.

    Ready for many languages

    Built so new languages can be added without rebuilding. Launch languages will be confirmed with the pilot group.

    AI with guardrails

    AI tools arrive only after testing, with source links, data limits and a way to do every task without them.

    Who it's for

    Built around the organisations who use it

    Questions

    Straight answers

    What joining means, and what it doesn't.

    All questions
    Does it cost anything?

    No. The pilot is free. If paid services are ever introduced, we'll say clearly which features are free and which are not before anything changes.

    Does joining make us members of United Vision ry?

    No. Vision Network is led by United Vision ry, but taking part is separate from membership of the association.

    Will verification help us get funding?

    Verification shows partners what was checked about your organisation. It doesn't make you eligible for any grant: each funder sets and decides its own eligibility.

    Who can see our assessment answers?

    Only your organisation's team, by default. Answers never appear in the directory, and there are no public rankings.

    Help shape the first version

    We're looking for NGOs that want to test the core platform and tell us honestly what works for them.
