AI You Can Understand
Unlike black-box AI systems, GrantIQ shows you exactly why each grant fits your profile. Our explainable AI builds trust through transparency.
Multi-Signal Recommendation Engine
We combine semantic AI understanding, structured eligibility checks, project fit, and data-quality signals. This keeps recommendations explainable without reducing them to one fixed formula.
Semantic Analysis
OpenAI embeddings understand the meaning of your profile and grant descriptions, finding relevant grants based on concepts, not just keywords.
Eligibility and Fit Checks
Hard filters check organization type, location, funding amount, and other eligibility criteria that semantic analysis might miss.
How It Works
Understand Every Recommendation
Our AI doesn't just give you a score—it explains its reasoning in plain English. Know exactly why each grant is recommended for your organization.
Natural Language Explanations
Every recommendation includes a human-readable explanation generated by our AI narrator.
Eligibility Verdicts
Every grant gets a clear verdict against your profile, so you know whether to apply, prepare, or skip.
Factor Breakdown
See exactly which factors contributed to the relevance score.
Smart Warning Examples
"This grant closes in 7 days. Based on typical proposal preparation time, this may be tight."
"This grant requires 30% co-funding. Ensure you have matching funds available before applying."
"This is a collaborative grant requiring 3+ partners from different countries."
Save Time on Unsuitable Grants
Our warning system catches potential issues before you spend hours on a proposal. Know about deadlines, co-funding requirements, and consortium needs upfront.
- Deadline urgency detection
- Co-funding requirement alerts
- Consortium/partnership requirements
- Eligibility gaps
- Budget range compatibility
Apply against the funder's own rule book
For supported schemes — Horizon Europe RIA, Wellcome Discovery and Career Development, Leverhulme Research Project Grants, Innovate UK Smart Grants, UKRI cross-council — we've encoded the funder's required sections, word limits, evaluation criteria, and compliance rules. Every rule cites the source regulation. When we can't auto-check something, we say so — instead of a silent green tick.
- Per-rule verdicts with citations to the source regulation (e.g. “Horizon Europe Reg. (EU) 2021/695 Art.23”)
- Honest “Needs Review” signal when a rule can't be auto-checked from your profile — never a fake-green pass
- Aggregator integrity: the overall verdict caps at “Minor Issues” until real automated checks cover every rule — one verified rule doesn't flip the whole application green
- Real automated checks where structured data exists — e.g. UK-registered company against your legal entity
Structured Proposal Drafting
Our AI doesn't just generate text—it follows a structured process to create high-quality proposal drafts that align with funder requirements.
Outline
Maps the grant's questions and criteria to a section-by-section structure for your draft.
Expand
Fills each section using your profile, project context, and the funder's stated priorities.
Critique
Self-reviews the draft for gaps, weak claims, and missing alignment with the grant criteria.
Polish
Final pass for language quality, consistency, and professional presentation.
AI-generated drafts are starting points. We always recommend expert review before submission.
Built for Reliability
Comprehensive automated testing, data protection by design, and live UK and EU funding coverage.
