Project-specific search

New

Don't just match on your charity profile. Describe a specific project and funders are scored against the actual work — not a generic summary. Higher scores, better fit, straight to writing.

  • Project form captures what funders actually care about: title, beneficiaries, activities, outcomes
  • AI scores each funder against your project for more targeted match results
  • Run multiple project searches, each with its own results tab alongside your general matches
  • Click "Write" on any match to start drafting — the AI already has your project context

Application pipeline

New

A visual kanban board to track every application from first contact to outcome. See at a glance where each funder stands and what needs attention.

  • Six columns: To Do, In Progress, Submitted, Successful, Unsuccessful, Not a Fit
  • Drag-and-drop cards between columns to update status
  • Progress bars show how many questions are answered per funder
  • Click any card to jump back into the chat and pick up where you left off

Smart funder matching

Search by what you do, not by funder name. Describe your charity and get a ranked list of the best-fit funders from 3,500+ UK grant-makers.

  • Hybrid scoring: cause, geography, size, thematic alignment
  • Match scores explain why each funder fits
  • Save, exclude, and add private notes to any match
  • Filter by region, grant size, and cause area

AI writing co-pilot

Paste the funder's question and word limit. Your co-pilot writes a first draft using your charity's real name, real numbers, and real impact data.

  • Pre-loaded with your profile and the funder's priorities
  • Writes as your charity ("we"), not generic filler
  • Respects word limits automatically
  • Iterative: ask for changes, expansions, or rewrites

Research mode

Search the web mid-conversation for the latest funder information. Deadlines, recent grants awarded, trustee details, and application guidance — all with source links.

  • Real-time web search powered by AI
  • Returns sources you can verify
  • Great for checking deadlines and recent awards
  • Charity Commission register lookup built in

8-point quality check

Every draft answer is checked against 8 criteria that experienced fundraisers look for. Fix weaknesses before you submit.

  • Clear ask: is the funding amount explicit?
  • Beneficiary focus: who benefits and how many?
  • Funder alignment: does it match their priorities?
  • Measurable outcomes, local context, credibility, plain English, strong opening

Review panel

Track every question in your application. Add questions with word limits, paste drafts, check quality, and see your progress at a glance.

  • Tab per question with drag-to-reorder
  • Live word count with colour-coded progress bar
  • One-click quality check per answer
  • Ask the AI to improve failing criteria

Document analysis

Upload your annual report, impact assessment, or theory of change. The AI reads it and uses specific data points when drafting your answers.

  • Supports PDF, Word, and image uploads
  • AI cites specific passages from your documents
  • No manual copy-pasting of statistics
  • Documents stay private to your organisation

Evidence bank

Store your best statistics, quotes, and case study excerpts. Reuse them across applications without hunting through old files.

  • Add evidence items with source and project tags
  • Filter by project or service area
  • Accessible from within the writing assistant
  • Build once, reuse everywhere

Document export

When your application is ready, export it as a formatted PDF or Word document. Professional layout, ready to submit.

  • A4 PDF with teal headings and section breaks
  • Word (.docx) with proper formatting and margins
  • Includes all questions and answers in order
  • Download or share via link

AI-powered onboarding

Tell us your charity name and what you do. The AI researches you, pulls Charity Commission data, and builds your profile automatically.

  • Charity Commission register lookup
  • Web research to fill in the gaps
  • Review and edit before saving
  • One profile powers all your searches and drafts

Save, exclude, and manage

Save matches you want to pursue, exclude funders you already work with, add private notes, and organise funders into custom lists.

  • Saved matches persist across new searches
  • Exclude funders so they never appear again
  • Private notes on any funder
  • Custom funder lists for organisation and filtering

Built to work together

Every feature connects. Your profile powers your matches. Your matches power your co-pilot. Your co-pilot feeds your review panel. Nothing gets lost between steps.
