Why I built GrantorAI

Matthijs Cluitmans

I built GrantorAI to spend less time writing grant proposals and more time doing science. But not with thoughtless AI. When every applicant uses AI to polish their prose, polish stops standing out; what still stands out is the thinking. So GrantorAI drafts from your own ideas, if you want it to, and asks the questions that make them sharper. The science stays yours.

From the call to the next proposal

  1. The call

    What the funder asks, read for you

    Upload the call and its form. GrantorAI works out what the funder is really asking for, section by section, and every draft is written against it.

  2. Your ideas

    Your plan, sharpened before it is written

    Write your plan in your own words, as rough as you like. Challenge questions find where your ideas leave a choice open, or miss what the call asks, before anything is drafted.

  3. The draft

    A first draft of every section

    Each section drafted from your ideas and answers, in the form's own structure; or write it yourself. Either way, ask for editorial feedback on any section: how well it is written, and whether it answers the call.

  4. The mock review

    A mock review panel, before the real one

    Three virtual reviewers and a chair challenge the science and the plan, the way a funding committee would, while there is still time to fix it.

  5. The rebuttal

    When the reviews come back

    Answer the funder's reviewers point by point, grounded in what you proposed, and compile one clear letter.

  6. What comes next

    Every application teaches the next

    Record the outcome. The lessons in the reviews are kept, and come back as questions on your next proposal.

Your next call is the place to start.
