Data to Insight. Insight into Action.

TolaData brings your entire impact workflow into one platform — so you can plan with clarity, measure what matters, and turn evidence into better decisions.

Define What Success Looks Like

Every initiative starts with a clear picture of success. TolaData lets you map your goals, outcomes, and the metrics that matter — whether you call it a results framework, a theory of change, or an outcomes model. Connect strategy to measurement from day one.

Collect Data From Anywhere

Gather data in real time using our built-in form builder, or connect to the tools you already use — Excel, Google Drive, KoboToolbox, SurveyCTO, and more. Whether it’s survey responses, program data, or case-level records, everything flows into one place.

Organize and Analyze

Bring datasets from multiple sources together, clean and structure them, and analyze patterns — consistently and under one roof. Portfolio and program managers can aggregate results across projects, teams, or regions to see the bigger picture.

Work Together

Bring your team onto the same page. Manage workflows, route approvals, assign tasks, and exchange feedback — so nothing falls through the cracks. Built for distributed teams working across offices, partners, and time zones.

Visualize and Share

Configurable dashboards let you explore your latest data and share it with partners, funders, and stakeholders in real time. Connect to Power BI, Tableau, or Apache Superset to expand your data’s storytelling possibilities.

AI-Enhanced Impact Management

Testimonials

TolaData doesn’t feel like a standard, off-the-shelf monitoring platform but something much more dynamic and focused on meeting clients’ needs.

Carrie HuismanPAX for Peace

"TolaData is an excellent monitoring visualisation tool. I wish all projects would use it to manage the outcomes of their activities and visualise progress."

Petro IlkyvSwiss Agency for Development and Cooperation, Ukraine

TolaData makes my life so much easier. Once it's set up, an NPO can use it for many years. Data is easy to find and enter, and data cleaning in the backend is minimal and easy to export for further analytics.
