World-class impact measurement without the research team
Turn your organization into a learning engine.
Built by experts—accessible for all. Our team has worked with:
You know your program works
Proving it is another story
Your team does meaningful work every day. But the tools you use to document it were built for compliance, and often miss what actually matters. EFL gives you the infrastructure to capture real evidence before the story gets flattened into a report.
Professional evaluation is out of reach
Research consultants and evaluation firms charge $50K–$500K per study. For most organizations, that's simply not in the budget.
Insights arrive after the window to act
Traditional evaluation takes 6–12 months. By then, the program cycle is over and the opportunity to improve has passed.
Qualitative insights stay trapped
Participant stories hold the richest data, but analyzing interviews and open-ended responses at scale requires time and expertise most teams don't have.
Meet EFL
From program to proof
EFL gives you a complete measurement and learning system.
From idea to measurement plan and surveys in minutes
A strong measurement framework shouldn't require a consultant or a research degree. EFL's AI helps you build one through plain-language conversation, whether you're starting from scratch or refining what you already have.
-
No research background required
The AI guides you through plain-language questions about your program.
-
Framework evolves as you learn
Your framework is a living document that tracks changes over time.
-
Directly connected to measurement
Your framework flows directly into survey generation and analysis.
Turn every survey into a conversation
Traditional surveys give you numbers without context. Interviews give you depth you can't scale. EFL combines both: structured questions alongside AI-powered qualitative collection that probes deeper.
-
Questionnaires auto-generated from your framework
Your measurement plan becomes survey questions automatically. No starting from scratch.
-
Adaptive follow-up questions
The AI asks the follow-up a good interviewer would ask.
-
Voice-first interface
Respondents can speak their answers. Auto transcription and translation.
-
Analysis-ready from the start
Responses flow directly into structured format. No cleaning, no spreadsheet wrangling.
Your data becomes understanding. Your understanding becomes action
Most platforms hand you data and walk away. EFL stays in the learning with you. Every dataset moves through a guided cycle: what the data shows, what patterns matter, what it means for your theory of change, and what to try next.
-
Guided learning, not just data display
EFL walks your team through a structured learning cycle: from what happened, to what it means, to what to change.
-
The AI surfaces what you weren't looking for
EFL proactively surfaces unexpected patterns and anomalies — things a great researcher would notice but a survey tool would miss.
-
Your program evolves every cycle
Insights flow back into your measurement framework. Each round of data collection makes your next round more precise.
-
Ask your data anything
Natural language queries across all your data. No exports, no filters, no manual merging across programs.
One click from data to deliverable
You've done the hard work — collected the data, understood what it means. Now you need to hand it to someone else. EFL turns your learning into professional deliverables without the weeks of manual synthesis.
-
Evaluation reports, generated
Full evaluation reports drawn directly from your data: methodology, findings, visualizations, and narrative.
-
Quarterly reports without the quarterly pain
Pull grant-specific data across every program a funder supports and produce a complete report from a single prompt.
-
One-page briefs for the meeting in an hour
Quick, clean summaries, ready for the board member who needs the headline, not the full study.
Turn your impact into momentum
You've learned something real. Now put it to work. EFL makes it easy to get your evidence in front of funders, board members, and supporters who want to champion your work.
-
Live dashboards for funders
Give program officers real-time visibility into your programs. No more waiting for quarterly reports.
-
Public impact profiles
Share your story backed by real evidence. Stand out from organizations making claims without data.
-
Your evidence, your audience
Control who sees what. Share selectively with specific funders, publish broadly, or keep it internal.
We believe a lack of learning is the single biggest problem facing the impact sector
Without learning, change makers duplicate efforts, and decision makers fly blind.
Powerful discoveries from impact programs worldwide remain trapped in lost PDFs and spreadsheets, leaving others to blindly repeat failed approaches instead of building on proven success.
