What Grant Assistant is
Grant Assistant is a web product for mission-driven organizations seeking funding and preparing grant proposals. Its Discover feature ranks opportunities according to an organization’s mission, programs, and geography. An opportunity can move from Discover into Respond in one click, where users can summarize the funding opportunity, create a proposal outline, and draft funder-aligned content using organizational materials. The company says its proprietary AI was trained on more than 7,000 successful grant proposals. The pre-award pipeline lets users save opportunities and funders, arrange them in folders, track deadlines, and add notes. Supported funding includes foundation, corporate, and government grants, as well as government contracts. Grant Assistant says organizational data is isolated, accessible only to verified users within the organization, and not used to train external AI models. Each partnership includes onboarding, live training, in-app support, quarterly strategy check-ins, and a dedicated grant strategy expert. The product is intended for nonprofit grant writers and development officers, including small-to-mid-size organizations and teams pursuing many opportunities. Founded in 2024, the company is headquartered in Reston, Virginia. Pricing is available upon request through a discovery conversation and is customized by organization size and grant program scope.
