The complete grant management process.

Not just AI — a full grant management system covering every step from application intake through to impact reporting and exports.

Step 1

Build better application forms.

Import your existing forms as PDFs or Word docs and we automatically convert them into smart, structured applications. AI guides applicants as they write — checking eligibility in real time and helping them give you the information you actually need.

  • Import existing forms in minutes — no rebuilding
  • AI-guided eligibility checking for applicants
  • Works on mobile and desktop — accessible for all
Step 2

Automated due diligence — thorough, not superficial.

AI reads applications, downloads and analyses financial accounts, scans uploaded policies for concerns, and cross-references against Charity Commission and Companies House records. Every check is logged and auditable.

  • Charity Commission & Companies House verification
  • Financial analysis from PDF accounts
  • Policy scanning — safeguarding, governance, insurance
  • News and reputational risk flagging
Step 3

Assessment & scoring that works for your team.

AI reads applications and extracts evidence against your specific assessment criteria. Your assessors review the highlighted evidence and make the final call — supported by data, not replaced by it. Collaborative scoring dashboards let multiple assessors work together with full transparency.

  • AI extracts evidence against your criteria
  • Collaborative scoring dashboard for panels
  • One assessor per fund instead of 3-5
Step 4

Personalised feedback for every applicant.

Whether successful or not, every applicant deserves useful feedback. AI drafts specific, constructive feedback based on the actual application — not a generic template. Review and send in minutes.

  • AI-drafted personalised feedback
  • Review and edit before sending
  • Builds stronger relationships with applicants
Step 5

Monitor delivery against the original plan.

Track how grantees deliver against their original applications. AI compares progress reports to application goals, automatically flagging underspend, timeline slippage, or deviation from planned activities. Payment schedules tied to milestones.

  • AI comparison of reports vs. original application
  • Payment scheduling tied to milestones
  • Automatic flagging of concerns
Step 6

Impact reports on demand — not once a year.

Generate polished, stakeholder-ready impact reports at any time. Pull from your full grant history with outcomes, milestones, financials, and maps — tailored for trustees, donors, policymakers, or the public.

  • On-demand reports for any audience
  • Full grant history — outcomes, finances, maps
  • CSV/Excel exports for your own analysis
