Grant Assistant

The Fundraising tile is not open yet. When it opens, Grant Assistant is available on ProEnterprise, with five AI builds a month. Until then, browse getalignmint.org/grants and record awards you already won in Grants Receivable.

Grant Assistant is research and writing help—not live grant accounting. Save strategy facts once, browse opportunities from the public grant directory plus manual entries, build editable section drafts, export packets for funder portals, and record awards when a proposal wins. Do not treat “Open Fundraising → Grant Assistant” as the only path. The Fundraising tile is not open yet, while the rest of fundraising stays live.

What You Can Do

• Store mission, geography, programs, priorities, exclusions, and tone guidance in Strategy
• Review paginated opportunities; skip duplicates already drafted
• Generate AI-assisted sections with human edit control before export
• Record an award into Grants Receivable after the funder approves externally
• Browse open grants at getalignmint.org/grants without signing in

Common Tasks

Draft a new application packet

1. When Grant Assistant is open for your organization, confirm Strategy is current.
2. Pick an opportunity and choose Build draft.
3. Edit each section, export the packet, and submit through the funder’s own portal.

Record an award after the funder says yes

1. Open the draft you used for the application, or enter the award in Grants Receivable.
2. Record amount, dates, and restriction details.
3. Continue drawdowns and reporting in Grants Receivable.

Good to Know

Grant Assistant requires ProEnterprise. Pro and Enterprise organizations receive five AI builds per month; failed generations release the reserved credit. AlignMint does not submit grants on your behalf—always review narratives before upload.

Award recording creates accounting follow-up; it does not mark a grant as submitted automatically.
