Solutions / Grant Discovery Software

Stop finding out about a grant after it closed.

Manual grant discovery means checking Grants.gov, SAM.gov, and a rotating list of bookmarked foundation and corporate pages by hand, and still missing the opportunity that was never on anyone’s list. This software runs six source categories, split across eight parallel research lanes, and hands back one deduplicated feed instead of a dozen browser tabs.

Six source categories, run as eight lanes

Each source type gets its own dedicated search rather than one generic query trying to cover all of them, run concurrently so one slow or failing source never blocks the rest.

Government
Grants.gov API directly, plus SAM.gov opportunity listings.
State agencies
State-administered federal pass-through funding that never appears on a federal site.
Foundation
Foundation directories, screened for stated focus areas and geography.
Faith-based
Denominational and faith-affiliated funder sources, run as their own lane rather than folded into general foundation search.
Corporate giving
Corporate foundation and giving-program pages.
Local sponsorship
Local and regional sponsorship listings that rarely show up in a national grants database.

Why breadth alone creates a dedup problem

Running lanes in parallel means two lanes can independently find the same opportunity, for example a foundation grant that also gets picked up through a state-agency listing. A cross-lane deduplication pass runs after every sweep, matching first on URL and then on funder name plus program title, and keeps the earliest row when it finds a collision, so the feed you review doesn’t force you to spot the duplicate yourself.

Stated limitations

Discovery surfaces candidates. It does not itself judge whether your organization would qualify or win — that scoring happens on the dedicated Grant Matching Software page’s pass, a separate step a staff member triggers.

A source going down or changing its page structure can cause that single lane to return zero results for a sweep. Every lane reports its own status, so a failure shows up as “this source returned nothing this run,” not a silently thinner feed.

FAQ

Does this replace checking Grants.gov ourselves?
Grants.gov is one of the lanes it runs, alongside SAM.gov, state agencies, foundation directories, corporate giving pages, and local sponsorship sources, deduplicated into one feed.
How often does it check for new opportunities?
On demand from the Research page, per lane or all at once, or on a schedule tied to your organization's active search profiles.
Does it cover state and foundation grants that never show up on a federal site?
Yes. State-agency and foundation-directory sources run as their own dedicated lanes rather than being folded into a single generic web search.
Can we control what shows up in our feed?
Yes. Search profiles carry keywords, funder categories, geography, focus-area weights, and exclusion lists, and each research lane can be enabled or disabled independently.
What happens after discovery finds something? Does it get submitted automatically?
No. Discovery's output is a reviewed feed. A staff member decides which listing moves into fit scoring, and from there into drafting; nothing advances on its own.
