  • This might be the greatest website our team has ever randomly stumbled upon, its completely changed the way we communicate, setup and record events 10/10

    FTC #34228

    Cardboard Engineering

  • Joining the Robolyst Platform has done wonders for our team in so many ways. Using their fiscal sponsorship program has allowed us to easily take donations and track our financial situation. It also simply allowed us to access so many more grants and sponsorships as it gave us 501(c)(3)/non-profit status. Alongside this, it has helped easily solve the challenge of documentation, being able to easily write down our progress, plans, future tasks, and much more. I believe that is the strongest part of Robolyst is how much it eases work for teams, and not only that, but they also improve upon these features by listening to teams using the platform.
