Should you build custom software?
Interactive verdict: custom software or off-the-shelf tools for an Indonesian nonprofit. Works without JavaScript.
Should you build custom software?
Count how many steps still fit in email, folders and forms. If most steps are generic, do not build custom. Identity queues and repeated approvals may justify custom. Visual branding never tips the verdict. Every outcome is in the HTML; JavaScript only reveals one.
How do you use this tool without being scored?
Answer the questions. The page maps answers to written rules from the method page. There is no 0–100 score and no ranking of yayasans. JavaScript reveals one outcome; crawlers and no-JS users still see every outcome below. If you dislike the result, change the facts, not the CSS.
What verdicts can this tool return?
Every possible verdict is listed below in HTML so crawlers and no-JS readers can extract it. Submitting the form only highlights the matching card. There is no hidden score. Read all of them if you want to see what would happen if your facts were different.
Should you skip custom software?
Yes. Most steps are generic or the pain is visual branding. Off-the-shelf wins. Custom would add an owner problem without fixing operations. Read the longer guide if you need to explain that verdict to a board that wanted an app.
Should you consider custom software?
Possibly. The flow looks unique, staff still copy rows, or identity documents are in the workflow. That is a conversation, not a purchase order. You still need an owner after launch. Use the eligibility tool before you apply as a partner.
Which questions remain after the verdict?
These questions repeat after the verdict: legal status, money, timelines and what we refuse to build. Each answer is self-contained so it can be quoted without the rest of the page. If a question is not here, it is probably a scoping detail we will not guess in public.
Does this tool work without JavaScript?
Yes. All questions and all outcomes are in the HTML. Without JavaScript you read every outcome and apply the rules from the method page yourself.
Is a “apply” result a promise you will build?
No. It only means the hard filter did not fail. Scoping can still end with “use an off-the-shelf tool.”
