What GrantAppli is
GrantAppli is a web platform for finding funders and preparing grant applications. Users can search by mission, focus area, and location, or use reverse peer search to find funders that support similar organizations. They can provide foundation website URLs to assess how a funder's mission aligns with nonprofit goals. Writing tools include AI assistance, letters of inquiry, document summaries, character counting, and research with sources. Teams can work together on drafts in real time, track grant status and deadlines, and keep documents and images organized. Budget tools let users examine line items, consider adjustments, and review totals through chat. Optional read-only access to Google Drive, Docs, and Sheets lets users browse and import files they select. The FAQ says customer content is not used to train AI models. Its security policy describes encryption, firewalls, DDoS mitigation, and intrusion detection, along with encrypted backups every five minutes and disaster recovery testing at least twice a year. A free plan covers three grant projects, and a free trial is listed. Questions and trial inquiries can be sent to [email protected].
