For nonprofit organizations
Know which federal, state, and foundation grants you can actually win — before you spend 40 hours on a proposal.
Built for 501(c)(3)s, fiscally sponsored projects, and small development teams.
What you get
Readiness scoring, funder research, budgets, submission review, awards and reporting — so the version of your organization that reaches a funder is the fundable one.
Applicant type, registration status, geography, and program period are checked against the notice text before a match is ever shown.
Your budget size, staffing, and prior award history scored against what the funder actually funds.
SAM.gov UEI, indirect cost rate or the 15% de minimis election, audit threshold exposure, and required attachments.
Hours, attachments, and internal approvals required — so you can rank pursuit cost against award size.
Every tracked opportunity is re-checked at the source; amendments, closures, and reissues surface as alerts.
One-click PDF pipeline reports and purchase quotes for procurement and board approval cycles.
Eligibility first
Most tools show you everything and let you discover the disqualifier on page nine of the notice. We check the hard rules first and tell you plainly when the answer is no.
Sources we track
Each opportunity carries a source link and a last-verified timestamp. When a source changes, tracked matches are re-scored and you are alerted.
Three moves
Profile, financials, documents, and reusable answers assembled once so no application starts from zero.
Readiness and weighted fit on every opportunity, so your hours go where they can actually win.
Budget checks, a review gate, then report calendars and outcome tracking that keep the relationship alive.
The intelligence layer
A binary pass/fail against the funder's stated rules. If you cannot apply, it is not a match — no matter how well it reads.
Whether your organization's size, history, and capacity resemble what this funder has actually funded before.
What you must have in place — registrations, financials, attachments — and what is missing right now.
An estimate of hours, documents, and approvals so you can weigh pursuit cost against expected value.
Every field is traced to a source with a last-verified timestamp. AI never overrides verified source data.
How we compare
They help you find opportunities. FundingRadar AI helps you decide which opportunities deserve your time.
"Not marketed" means the competitor does not publicly market that exact feature. It is not proof that no internal equivalent exists. Comparisons reflect publicly available material and are reviewed as competitors change.
