What GrantLoop Does

GrantLoop is an AI grant-fundraising platform for nonprofits. It finds funding opportunities, writes the applications, and tracks the pipeline — working on a schedule rather than waiting to be driven.

It's built for the people who actually do this work: executive directors doing fundraising alongside everything else, development staff at small teams, and the consultants and contract grant writers who serve them.

What it does

Finds funders worth applying to. It searches giving history from public grantmaker tax filings — who a foundation has funded, how much they write, whether they've backed organizations like yours — alongside live web research for what's open now. Results land in a spreadsheet you own, enriched with deadlines, average check size, fit assessment, and application process.

Writes the applications. Full drafts, grounded in your own past applications and program documents rather than generic language. It pulls the funder's actual questions from their site where it can, produces budgets, and proposes edits as tracked changes you accept or reject.

Tracks the pipeline. What you applied for, when, for how much, what came back, and when you can apply again — as a spreadsheet or a drag-and-drop board.

Runs on its own. The common setup is a weekly cycle: find new opportunities, pick what to pursue, draft an application, log it, and email you the result. Most users' main interaction is reading that email.

Finds the human to talk to. Given a funder, it will research board members and staff — where they studied, what they care about, prior affiliations — and surface plausible points of connection, because a warm introduction still beats a cold application.

What makes it different from using ChatGPT

Three things, in order of how much they matter:

1. It has the funding data. Years of grant records from public tax filings, so recommendations rest on who a funder has actually paid rather than a plausible guess.
2. It knows your organization. Upload past applications and program material once and every future draft is grounded in them. It remembers your preferences between sessions.
3. It acts, and it keeps acting. It maintains your spreadsheets, tracks your pipeline, and runs on a schedule. The work continues when you're not in the app.

What it doesn't do

A person still presses submit. It doesn't watch your email, it can't see applications behind a funder's login without help, giving-history data lags a year or two because of how those records are published, and it has nothing to say about individual-donor fundraising. The full list is on Limits and Known Gaps.

What it reliably changes is how many well-targeted, well-written applications you get out the door — see the Healing Meals case study for what that looks like in practice.

Who it fits

A good fit if you're a US 501(c)(3) (or an international organization with a US fundraising arm), you already do some grant fundraising, and the constraint is time rather than knowing what a grant is.

A weaker fit if you have no US 501(c)(3), your fundraising is entirely individual donors and events, or you're expecting grants to be won without anyone reviewing and submitting them.

What it costs

Free to try, Pro at $399/month, Max at $999/month, monthly with no annual contract, and a six-month money-back guarantee. Pricing is by usage rather than per seat, so adding colleagues is free. Details on Plans and Usage.
