Start with the comprehensive one

FundWisr offers thirteen diagnostics. Twelve of them look closely at one area. The thirteenth, the Comprehensive Organizational Health Diagnostic, looks at all of them shallowly and tells you which of the other twelve are worth your time. Take that one first.

It is 52 questions across 13 domains, and it takes most people 25 to 40 minutes. You can stop and come back; answers save as you go.

A summary panel showing an average score ring, a count of diagnostics taken, and a weakest-first list of results, above a grid of numbered diagnostic cards each showing a title, a description, and a last score where one exists — The Diagnostic Center. The panel at the top summarizes what has been measured so far and says plainly how much has not; the cards below are the thirteen instruments.

How to answer

Each question is a statement about your organization, and you say how true it is. The honest answer is the useful one. There is no funder reading this and no score to protect.

Two rules that make the result trustworthy:

If a policy exists but nobody follows it, it does not exist. Score it that way.
If you are not sure, say so rather than guessing high. The result carries a confidence figure alongside the score, and unsure answers lower it honestly rather than distorting the score itself.

Reading your result

You get one weighted score from 0 to 100, a band that says what the score means, a per-domain breakdown, and a confidence figure that reflects how completely you answered.

Score	Band
85 to 100	Strong and Well-Positioned
70 to 84	Stable with Strengthening Opportunities
55 to 69	Developing with Material Gaps
40 to 54	Vulnerable and Requiring Focused Action
0 to 39	Significant Foundational Risk

The five result bands.

The per-domain breakdown is the part to act on. A 72 overall can hide a 30 in risk and compliance, and that 30 is the thing that will hurt you.

What happens next

Your weakest domains are recommended as the next diagnostics to take.
Findings become suggested items in the Action Center, so a gap becomes a task with an owner rather than a line in a report.
The score appears on your Command Center and is tracked over time, so a re-run in six months shows movement.
