Click a bookmarked grant to create a new proposal. GrantCopilot pre-fills the grant details and sets up sections based on the funder's requirements.
3. Write each section
Use AI-powered templates and Compass research to draft your narrative, budget, and supporting documents section by section.
4. Get feedback
Run Section Analysis for AI feedback on clarity, completeness, and alignment with funder priorities, then revise with one click.
5. Export & submit
Download a formatted PDF and submit through Grants.gov, the funder's portal, or share with collaborators for final review.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to pick NIH or Nonprofit to get started?
No. The grant-type guides provide deeper walkthroughs, but the universal workflow (find → write → export) works for any grant. Choose a guide if you want funder-specific tips.
How does AI help me write proposals?
Compass can draft initial content for any section, suggest improvements based on funder priorities, and run analysis to check for gaps. You remain in control of every word. AI assists, you decide.
Can I collaborate with my team?
Each user has a personal workspace. You can export proposals as PDFs to share with co-investigators, mentors, or review committees. Team collaboration with simultaneous editing is planned for a future release.
