Find realistic funding routes

Who we are
Two ways to create more runway: find funding and spend less.
We’ve lived the funding problem — and solved it by hand, coaching 22 founders to $300K+ in grants. Fortune brings that funding preparation and verified founder savings into one focused place.
02
Prepare stronger applications
Turn what you already know about your business into clearer, evidence-led answers aligned with the funder's criteria.
03
Reduce the cost of building
Use verified startup credits and discounts before paying full price for infrastructure, AI, marketing and operations tools.
One guided funding workspace
Move from startup facts to a stronger application in four controlled steps.
Your company profile, evidence and conversations stay together throughout the workflow. Each specialist has a narrow role, and the grant matcher must check hard eligibility requirements before recommending an opportunity.
Intake & evidence
Build a structured founder profile, review uploaded evidence and identify missing eligibility details.
Grant matcher
Find possible grants, check location, stage, academic, legal and funding requirements, then exclude failed gates.
Application writer
Draft application answers from verified facts without inventing traction, partnerships or outcomes.
Scoring reviewer
Score the draft against the funder's criteria and give precise evidence and rewrite instructions.
