Resources — Workflows

Decision workflows for funding operations

Every workflow begins with structured decision-making: fit assessment, eligibility analysis, and pursuit prioritization. Drafting support appears as a downstream step after the decision to pursue has been made.

Individual researchers, small teams, first-time applicants

Single Opportunity Pursuit

The simplest workflow — evaluate one opportunity and decide whether to pursue before committing to drafting.

01

Define project context

Describe your research, team, and funding needs in a project record.

02

Search and select opportunity

Use discovery to find a matching opportunity. Review fit score and alignment analysis.

03

Run fit diagnostic

Generate a detailed fit analysis with dimension-level scoring across eligibility, budget, scope, and readiness.

04

Make pursuit decision

Review the decision record. Pursue with a structured drafting workflow, or pass with documented reasoning.

05

Structured drafting support

If pursuing: generate section-structured drafts as analytical starting points for team review and refinement.

06

Refine and export

Edit sections, incorporate feedback, and export in submission-ready format.

Grant consultants, research offices, organizations pursuing multiple programs

Multi-Opportunity Pipeline

Manage multiple opportunities simultaneously with structured pipeline tracking.

01

Define project portfolio

Create project records for each research area or client engagement.

02

Batch discovery

Run opportunity discovery across all projects. Surface new matches for the entire portfolio.

03

Triage and decide

Move qualified opportunities through decision stages — evaluating, decided, drafting, review, submitted.

05

Downstream drafting

For pursued opportunities: generate and refine structured proposal drafts as starting points for team review.

06

Track outcomes

Record submission outcomes. Build institutional memory for future pursuit decisions.

Universities, large research organizations, enterprise deployments
