Grant Scout is an AI worker that discovers government grants and trade incentives matching your business profile.
It monitors programs continuously and supports applications to maximize funding capture.
What is Grant Scout?
- Funding Discovery Engine. The Grant Scout is an AI worker that continuously monitors government grant programs, export incentives, and trade assistance programs across jurisdictions. It identifies opportunities matching your business profile and eligibility criteria.
- The Hidden Money Problem. Billions in government grants go unclaimed annually because SMBs lack resources to track programs across federal, state, and international agencies. Opportunities are buried in complex government portals with confusing eligibility requirements.
- Proactive Matching. The agent doesn't wait for you to search. It continuously scans new program announcements, deadline changes, and eligibility updates, alerting when relevant opportunities emerge before competitors discover them.
- Application Support. Beyond discovery, the agent helps prepare applications by identifying required documentation, drafting narrative sections, and tracking submission deadlines to maximize approval probability.
Replaces:
- Manual grant database searches across multiple government portals.
- Consultant fees for identifying eligible programs.
- Missed deadlines from not tracking application windows.
- Application rejections from incomplete or poorly formatted submissions.
- Opportunity loss from programs discovered after funding exhausted.
