OpenGrants - The Easy Way to Win Grants

Hi all, we're excited to share OpenGrants with the world, and especially with the startup community. Sedale, Pachia, Hunter, and I have been working on this for the past two years. Our past experiences with grants made it very apparent that grant funding is way too complicated and time consuming. It's also not transparent, and it lacks equity (most applicants win the same money over and over). Our mission is to democratize access to grants, help funding organizations find new diverse and qualified applicants (you), improve the efficiency of our tax dollars, support economic diversity, and fuel innovation. The government used to be a strong strategic and financial supporter of innovation, but its tools and infrastructure have become antiquated. We're here to correct that. We know it's a big goal, but we believe it has to happen if we hope to move society toward a positive future. Please feel free to reach out with questions, comments, feedback, or anything else. You can also reach me directly at cody@opengrants.io.

OpenGrants user here and loving it. OpenGrants enabled us to spot and apply to a $3M funding opportunity that we would have never been in our radar without them.

Super excited to share OpenGrants with everyone. We believe that entrepreneurs and small businesses are the key to solving the world's greatest challenges. Government funding was the catalyst for the most significant breakthroughs of the 20th century. Now in 2020, bureaucratic bloat has slowed that innovation and entrepreneurship is in decline. We built OpenGrants to remove barriers to access, disrupt a culture of incumbency, and transform public money back into the resource it was meant to be. Let us know what you think!

So excited to see this come to life! Sedale and team are A+ and this platform is exactly what’s needed for the next phase of the American economy. Congrats guys - can’t wait to put public money to good use!

Can you imagine all the grants and *free* government money you could get all in one place??? I can't tell you how many months I've spent over YEARS trying to figure out this landscape. The idea that it's just in one place? And that they can even help me fill it out? Unbelievable! How exciting. This could be make or break for start-ups, especially this year!

Sedale and team crushed it with OpenGrants. This platform is much needed, and I think even more relevant given the changing nature of business during the pandemic. Highly recommend!

OpenGrants is the truth! We've used ourselves for finding grants in the startup space and it has been absolutely incredible. We now offer it to all the startups and businesses in our network. These guys are doing something really good for people!

OpenGrants is easy to use and to find relevant non-dilutive grant opportunities!

A tool that we shouldn't take for granted. Love it.

Awesome product. Given the current climate, any form of non-dilutive capital is a huge resource. Searching for grants sucks. It's boring, requires a lot of time and very tedious. Opengrants takes care of the boring stuff for you (sorry Opengrants team members), but we love you for it :). I've personally used this product and highly recommend it.

After having worked on grant platforms in the past, this tool is incredibly intuitive and the team at OpenGrants did an amazing job. Small businesses and entrepreneurs need access to capital now more than ever and it's all IN ONE PLACE! Nice job all!

By far the most comprehensive and complete grant database ive come across. Their user interface is excellent. They offer a complete package. Look no further for all of your grant needs.

appreciate all the work you all do! glad to see this on product hunt :)

Sero loves OpenGrants! We had been working with a consultancy that promised to find and apply for all kinds of government funding on our behalf. When that company bailed at the last moment, we thought we were out of luck. On a whim, we gave OpenGrants a shot. Within days, not only had we found opportunities we were perfect for — we found talented, enthusiastic, and affordable grant writing partners to work with. OpenGrants made searching for grants simple and gave us personalized recommendations for grant writers. We just received approval from the DoD for our first pre-proposal, so we'll be back to OpenGrants for sure.
