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 supporting similar organizations. They can also provide foundation website URLs to assess alignment with a nonprofit’s goals. Writing tools include AI assistance, automated letters of inquiry, document summaries, character tracking, and research with sources. Teams can collaborate on drafts in real time, track grant status and deadlines, and organize documents and images in one place. Budgeting tools let users build a budget and discuss line items, adjustments, and totals through chat. Optional read-only access to Google Drive, Docs, and Sheets allows users to browse and import files they select. GrantAppli says customer content is private and is not used to train AI models. Its security policy describes encryption, firewalls, DDoS mitigation, intrusion detection, 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.
