## What is FieldEdge?

#### FieldEdge is a suite of tools that empowers leaders and movements to engage their community “on the ground” – built exclusively for NationBuilder.

FieldEdge offers a range of tools to help grow your support. We offer a mobile app and HQ Dashboard to complement NationBuilder's existing database tools.
