Grantivo vs Mavenly

Grantivo is a web editor for grant writers that links proposal drafts to funder requirements and tracks readiness. Users can add guidelines from a file, link, or pasted text, then work from a requirements view. Inline suggestions attach to relevant lines, are evaluated against the specific funder, and can be accepted in place. Each proposal receives a readiness score and checklist based on coverage of the funder's requirements. Funder profiles describe giving history, award sizes, financial position, and whether unsolicited proposals are accepted; directory search is free and requires no account. Writing, editing, section templates, directory access, and exports do not use credits. Reviews, assistant chat, and inline suggestions draw from a shared credit balance. Credits do not expire, and purchased credits do not renew automatically. The Free plan costs nothing with 10 credits. One-time paid plans are Starter at 29.00 USD, Standard at 79.00 USD, and Team at 179.00 USD, with 50, 150, and 400 credits respectively.

Mavenly is a grant funding platform for discovering opportunities, drafting proposals, managing applications, and reporting outcomes. Its discovery module matches organizations with federal, foundation, and corporate grants, scoring fit by mission, geography, budget band, and grant history. Compose AI uses an organization’s prior submissions and a funder’s evaluation rubric to draft proposals, which can be exported as DOCX or PDF. Management tools cover pipelines, deadlines, funder relationships, reporting, and outcomes. Listed integrations include Slack, Google Workspace, and Microsoft 365, plus Salesforce, HubSpot, and Bloomerang for CRM. Editions are available for grantseekers, including nonprofits and higher education advancement teams, and grantmakers such as private and community foundations. Starter costs $49 a month. The guided trial lasts 14 days and follows Starter limits: two authorized users, up to 10 active applications, 50 funder matches, and 25 AI drafts; afterward, the workspace becomes read-only unless the customer subscribes. The site lists web and API platforms; a mobile app is described as coming in Q1 2027.
