A row is an organization with a Google Maps listing: a food bank, a veterans post, a youth club or a foundation office. Organizations with no place the public can visit are rarely listed, so the 51,879 listings lean toward those with an office or a venue.

The whole list: $119 on Agency, about $306 in Pro credits
| Plan | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Primavera Agency | $119 a month (€99 excl. VAT) | All 51,879 nonprofits and associations, or the 26,075 with an email, in one month: exports are unlimited under fair use, up to 300,997 Canadian businesses in any 30 days. |
| Primavera Pro | about $306 for all 51,879; about $154 for the 26,075 with an email | 1 credit per business exported; $59 a month (€49 excl. VAT) for 10,000 credits, top-ups at the same rate. |
Checking the 26,075 addresses once the list exists costs 26,075 credits on either plan. Both plans export from the web app, the API, or Claude through our MCP server. How fair use works.
What these figures don’t say
- Tax status. Google Maps does not say which organizations are tax-exempt.
- Budgets. A national federation and a village club each count once.
- Whether an address delivers. Checks run on request, once the list exists.
