The nonprofit problem Kantivo solves
A charity's books answer a question business books never face: is every restricted dollar provably where the donor intended? Class tags and spreadsheets approximate the answer. Kantivo's Nonprofit Edition makes the ledger itself enforce it.
Choose FASB ASC 958 at setup and restrictions become first-class objects: gifts tag to them at entry, balances update as funds release, and the reclassification entries post themselves. Expense accounts carry Program / Management & General / Fundraising classifications so the functional matrix — and the 990 — assemble from real data instead of estimates.
What you get

Purpose, time, and permanent restrictions each tracked with donor, condition, and remaining balance.
One-click releases
Meeting a condition posts the standard release reclassification automatically — no journal-entry gymnastics.
Functional classification at the source
