Givzey | Version2.ai Launches the Grateful Patient VEO, an Autonomous Fundraiser for Healthcare Organizations

Purpose-built to convert recently-cared-for patients into first-time donors while gratitude toward the hospital is at its peak

BOSTON, MA, UNITED STATES, October 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Givzey | Version2.ai, which pioneered Autonomous Fundraising, today announced the Grateful Patient VEO, the first Autonomous AI fundraiser purpose-built for hospital and health systems. The Grateful Patient VEO focuses on providing patients and families an opportunity to show gratitude by connecting them to philanthropy after receiving care. The offering includes dedicated compliance reviews of protected health information (PHI) before it enters the donor record.

“Healthcare fundraising is different. Every donor has a personal story behind their gift, whether it’s a life saved or compassionate caregiver,” said Adam Martel, CEO of Givzey | Version2.ai. “When we thought about how to bring trusted digital labor to healthcare and a donor base with deep connections to these organizations, we knew it had to be built specifically for healthcare’s unique challenges, not adapted from other types of nonprofit fundraising. The Grateful Patient VEO represents a true milestone in what’s possible with Autonomous AI fundraising, and we couldn’t be more proud to deliver an application of AI that can help fund some of the most important work saving lives.”

The Grateful Patient VEO was designed with an accelerated moves management model that captures what makes the strongest grateful patient programs effective. Healthcare organizations can narrow their focus to a service line, such as cancer or pediatrics, or align the VEO’s portfolio with existing Grateful Patient fundraising priorities.

The Grateful Patient VEO leads outreach with gratitude and opportunities to share stories about caregivers. It educates donors on the work of clinicians and innovations supported by philanthropic dollars. Working in four-to-six month cycles to preserve recency, each Grateful Patient VEO is capable of engaging up to 3,000 patients per year.

Patient data privacy is at the center of grateful patient programs, and the Grateful Patient VEO was built specifically to require minimal data to generate effective outcomes. In addition to restricting what it needs, given that the Grateful Patient VEO is capable of two-way conversations, a dedicated compliance function reviews any self-disclosed PHI before it reaches the donor record, preventing the information from being saved or used.

The Grateful Patient VEO is built as a complement to an organization’s Virtual Engagement Officer (VEO). Serving opposite ends of the donor lifecycle, the Grateful Patient VEO focuses on acquisition, while the Virtual Engagement Officer (VEO), focuses on year-round one-to-one moves management with existing donors. Once a grateful patient converts to a donor, they can be moved into a traditional VEO portfolio for ongoing relationship management.
