Three pillars. Zero interpretation required.

Every charity scored across Significance, Execution, and Opportunity. Free accounts see all three pillar scores as headline numbers. Each pillar is built from multiple sub-scores - six in total - unlocked with paid tiers alongside breakdowns, history, and peer benchmarks.

Commercial Signal

Operational clarity and buyer-readiness.

Significance

Evidence of real-world impact relative to cause peers.

Impact Plausibility

Credibility of the theory of change.

Trust

Governance, transparency, and financial stability.

Execution Strength

Delivery track record and operational maturity.

Hidden Gem

High-quality charities underfunded relative to evidence.

What you get with NI coverage

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

CCNI-native coverage

Every Northern Ireland charity registered with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland, ingested daily from the official API. Separate from England & Wales, not merged.

๐Ÿ“Š

Three intelligence pillars per charity

Significance, Execution, and Opportunity - each built from multiple sub-scores. Six sub-scores total (Commercial Signal, Significance, Impact Plausibility, Trust, Execution Strength, Hidden Gem). No raw data to interpret.

๐Ÿ”

Benchmarks within Northern Ireland

Scores calibrated against the NI charity population. A mental health charity in Belfast is benchmarked against its NI sector peers, not against a pool dominated by English organisations.

โšก

API and CSV delivery

Pull NI charities via REST API or bulk CSV. Filter by cause area, score band, income tier, or county. Schema-stable, versioned, with daily ingest.

๐Ÿ’ก

Hidden gem detection

Northern Ireland has a structurally underfunded charity sector. Hidden Gem scoring surfaces high-evidence organisations receiving disproportionately less funding than comparable charities elsewhere.

๐Ÿ“‹

Regulatory compliance data

CCNI registration status, trustee information, filing history, and annual return data - normalised alongside OSCR and CCEW data under one schema.

Common questions

How many Northern Ireland charities are covered?
Every charity registered with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland is ingested - approximately 6,000 registered charities. Composite scores are computed for those with sufficient evidence to score meaningfully.
Is Northern Ireland coverage comparable to England & Wales?
The scoring methodology is identical. Some NI charities will have lower evidence depth scores because they publish less documentary evidence - that reflects a real difference in transparency, not a gap in our coverage.
How is this different from searching CCNI directly?
CCNI gives you registration data and filing records. Dana House adds three intelligence pillar scores (Significance, Execution, Opportunity) built from multiple sub-scores, cause classification, peer benchmarks, financial health signals, and evidence extraction. You get a decision layer, not a register lookup.
Can I export NI charities alongside Scottish and English charities?
Yes. By default, exports and API responses cover all three registers. Add a jurisdiction or regulator filter to limit to CCNI. The full cross-register export includes a jurisdiction field so you can segment downstream.
