What is NationBuilder?

NationBuilder is a combined website builder, supporter CRM, and communications platform used by nonprofits, political campaigns, and advocacy organizations. It unifies a people database with custom fields, an integrated website and donation-page builder, mass email and texting, petitions and advocacy actions, and field organizing tools like address geocoding and turf cutting. Founded in Los Angeles in 2009 by Jim Gilliam, it now serves organizations in over 100 countries.

Pricing follows a pay-as-you-grow model based on contact database size, starting at $34 per month for the Starter plan supporting up to 25,000 contacts, and $160 per month for Pro supporting up to 100,000 contacts, with a custom-priced Enterprise tier for larger organizations. Monthly billing costs about 20 percent more than annual billing, and a 14-day free trial is available without requiring a credit card.
