Find funding for your science.
Or a job where the money already is.

1,000 open grants and SBIR topics, matched to what you are actually eligible for — and the science companies that just closed federal awards, because a freshly funded lab is hiring before the job is ever posted.

Tracking 1,000 open opportunities from 122 funders · review criteria on file for 814 · 219,559 past awards analysed. Counts measured from the database on 2026-08-30, not rounded for marketing.

Search the corpus — before signing up

Grants.gov, NIH, NSF, DoD SBIR/STTR, DOE, NASA and private foundations in one index.

  • · Deadlines and award ceilings from the source, updated daily
  • · Eligibility surfaced first — the constraint is usually a date, not a topic
  • · Free account shows the full announcement and review criteria

From “what can I apply for?” to a submitted proposal

Most tools stop at search. The hard parts come after.

Matched on eligibility, not keywords

Career-stage windows, institution type, citizenship, resubmission clocks. The thing that disqualifies you is on page nine of the PDF — we put it first.

See the reviewer’s rubric

The actual criteria panels score against — extracted from 814 announcements, or the funder's standing framework, each labelled for what it is.

Plan the writing, not just the deadline

A submission runway ordered by realistic preparation time and the eligibility windows that close before the deadline does.

Work where the money already is

219,559 award records tell us which small companies just closed federal money — and a 6-person company with a fresh award is hiring before anything reaches a job board.

The expensive part was never the software

It is the weeks spent reading announcements that exclude you on page nine, and the resubmission cycle lost because nobody told you what reviewers were scoring until the summary statement arrived. Pick who you are:

Freelance grant writer$75–250/hr
One outsourced proposal$5,000–20,000
A missed cycle9–12 months
Researcher$39/mo

Less than five hours of a consultant’s time — for the whole year.
