What it is
Orbit is a wealth intelligence database for philanthropy and fundraising prospect research. Its searches cover director, shareholder and company records, as well as trusts, foundations, charities and trustees. Users can find people by name, birth date, location, company, town, city or postcode, then filter area results by capacity level. Orbit assigns wealth categories ranging from UHNWI and HNWI to Mass Affluent, Emerging Wealth and Standard; its algorithms update wealth and capacity ratings with live data at the point of use. Users can build, save and export prospect lists. Gift capacity ratings are tailored to prospects, with liquid and illiquid wealth breakdowns; the maker says trained prospect researchers and financial analysts assure the capacities. Corporate searches span over 6 million active companies and include a Charitable Activity Assessment. Trust and foundation searches cover more than 370,000 records. Pricing is available on request, and a free trial is referenced. Pyro.Solutions describes Orbit as suitable for philanthropy professionals, researchers, sole fundraisers and nonprofits of any size. The company says it encrypts data in transit and at rest and anonymizes driver data?
