AI Grant and Tender Finder
Matches your organisation to open grants and tenders and drafts the first answer set.
Problem & target users
Public grant and tender portals are fragmented and badly searchable, so small organisations miss funding they qualify for.
Who it's for: Nonprofits, small consultancies, research groups, small construction and IT suppliers.
Proposed solution
Build a profile once, receive matched opportunities from public portals with eligibility explained in plain language, and generate first-draft answers to standard questionnaire sections.
Features
- Organisation profile with capability and certification data
- Daily matched opportunity feed with fit score
- Plain-language eligibility explanation
- Draft answers for common questionnaire sections
- Deadline calendar and reminders
Difficulty & tech stack
Difficulty: Intermediate
Monetization & pricing

Customer acquisition
Nonprofit networks, chambers of commerce, LinkedIn content on funding deadlines, and a free weekly opportunity digest.
