Grantivo is a grant writing platform for nonprofits and grant professionals. It combines funder research with proposal writing and review, so you can look up a funder's giving history, write your proposal, and check it against their requirements before you submit.

How is Grantivo different from using ChatGPT?

ChatGPT doesn't know your funder, your organization, or the grant requirements. Grantivo has data on 100,000+ foundations and keeps your context across every session, so feedback is specific to your proposal and the funder you're applying to.

Yes. All core features are free, including funder research, foundation profiles, proposal editing, and requirement tracking. You only pay when you use AI assistance for drafting or review. No credit card required to start.

Can I use Grantivo for any type of grant?

Yes. Grantivo works with foundation grants, government RFPs, corporate giving programs, and any funding opportunity that requires a written proposal.

Future Centers are high-tech hubs that help middle and high school students find their path and take concrete steps to prepare for and transition to college and career. They are rooted in local schools, supported by local businesses, designed by local students, and overseen by our impact-driven nonprofit to meet students' workforce development needs. They are staffed by two-full time Education Coordinators and located onsite at San Marcos Unified School District (SMUSD) high schools (and open to all North County San Diego students in the summer) to maximize student reach and engagement. Most importantly, they centralize program delivery, leading to more touchpoints per student throughout their educational journey and seamless transitions from one program or opportunity to the next.
