SPOTLIGHT: A Network with a Conscience

Built with an ideal that technology should care for people, Spotlight is a platform for modern giving and advocacy, where culture and community collide. The platform allows users to take action against social injustices and protect the planet through various actions such as donating, sharing, volunteering, voting, shopping, protesting, and agitating.

Our company provided Spotlight with the necessary technology to build and effectively scale the e-commerce and social features of the platform.

One of the key features of Spotlight is the Giving Wallet, which makes donating feel like a collaboration. The Giving Wallet allows users to support artists and crowdfunding campaigns with collectible stickers and use them to fund expressive activism and fill their profiles with art that tells their story.

Another important aspect of Spotlight is its focus on civic learning. The platform includes a feature called "Spots" which serve as a dedicated hub for civic learning. Users can collage experiences, explore historical events, bookmark articles, and broadcast actions, providing limitless space for change.

The team behind Spotlight believes that technology should care for people, which is why the platform is built with mental health and social good in mind. The company holds itself accountable to third-party standards, designs for social science, and reaches for benefit goals while also giving back. Spotlight is a B Corp, which challenges businesses to be a force for good and accountability, putting people and the planet above profit.

Contribution is one of Spotlight's core values, which is why the company has taken the pledge to donate 1% to its biggest stakeholder - the planet. From the onset, the company has been present in the community and strives to show up for each other, reporting its progress every year. Thanks to AppNexio’s technology solutions, Spotlight is able to effectively manage and scale its e-commerce operations, allowing for even greater impact and success.
