AI grant eligibility checker

Grant Eligibility Checker

Check whether your organization is likely eligible for a grant before you spend hours writing the application. Upload a grant RFP, NOFO, or funding guideline and QualiGrant reviews the requirements, risks, and fit in minutes.

Your uploaded documents are processed only to generate your evaluation. They are not used to train QualiGrant's own models.

Why check eligibility before writing?

Grant applications can take days or weeks to prepare. But many opportunities are poor fits from the start because of applicant type, geography, funding restrictions, deadlines, required documents, or unclear criteria. QualiGrant helps you screen the opportunity before your team commits time to a full application.

Avoid wasted writing time

Identify obvious eligibility issues before starting a long application.

Spot unclear requirements

See which criteria need confirmation before you make a decision.

Make a faster go/no-go decision

Get a structured recommendation instead of manually reviewing every section from scratch.

  • Organization size or status requirements
  • Funding amount and use-of-funds restrictions
  • Required documents and attachments
  • Deadline and submission requirements

Grant eligibility checker vs manual review

Manual review
  • Slow document scanning
  • Easy to miss hidden restrictions
  • Hard to compare multiple grants
  • Notes are often unstructured
  • Requires senior review early
QualiGrant
  • Structured eligibility extraction
  • Highlights unclear criteria
  • Compares the opportunity to your organization profile
  • Produces a repeatable evaluation format
  • Helps decide whether deeper review is worth it

Important limitation: QualiGrant helps with grant screening and decision support. It does not replace legal advice, funder guidance, or a final compliance review. Use the evaluation to decide what to verify before committing to a full application.

Frequently asked questions

Is QualiGrant a grant eligibility checker?

Yes. QualiGrant helps check whether your organization appears eligible for a grant based on the uploaded RFP, NOFO, or funding guideline and the organization profile you provide. It also flags unclear criteria that may need manual verification.

Can QualiGrant guarantee that we are eligible?

No. Grant eligibility can depend on funder interpretation, legal status, documentation, and details not always included in the uploaded document. QualiGrant helps you screen the opportunity faster, but final eligibility should be verified with the funder or relevant advisor.

What types of grant documents can I upload?

QualiGrant works best with text-based PDF documents such as RFPs, NOFOs, grant guidelines, foundation funding calls, corporate grant documents, and research funding opportunities.

Does QualiGrant write the grant application?

QualiGrant is focused on pre-writing evaluation. It helps you decide whether a grant is worth pursuing. Paid evaluations can unlock an Application Plan that gives a writing roadmap, checklist, timeline, and prompts, but QualiGrant does not submit applications for you.
