Echo Impact is a web platform for funders, grant makers, and not-for-profits to collect, analyse, and communicate impact. It follows funding from applications and assessment through grant management, progress reporting, and acquittal. Live data can generate board reports, which can be exported as PDF, Excel, or CSV. Echo says it monitors more than 18 activity types across portfolios, including registrations, investments, awards, and employment changes. Listed integrations include Australian Business Register and ACNC eligibility checks, monday.com administration tools, and MYOB and Xero finance connections available on request. The core platform is listed from 10000.00 AUD per year, scaling with annual disbursements; a Reporting Module is 2000.00 AUD per year. Optional full-service onboarding is 5000.00 AUD per once, and custom stakeholder-ready Impact Reports start at 30000.00 AUD per once. Primary data and uploaded documents are stored in Sydney, while the web application is hosted in Singapore, where the maker says customer data is not stored. Registration is invitation-only through an organisation administrator.
