From your documents to a sent application.

Afrant starts from what your organisation already has on file. It reads it once, then uses it everywhere: to check which calls you can win, to draft, and to report.

The sample workspace. The organisation, the calls and the figures are invented.

Getting started

Three steps, in this order. By the end you know which open calls are worth your time.

  1. Step 1

    Upload what you already have

    Your registration certificate, strategic plan, last annual report, a budget and one old proposal are enough to start. PDF, Word, spreadsheets and scans all work. Nothing needs retyping.

  2. Step 2

    Confirm your fact sheet

    Afrant lists the facts it found about your organisation, each with the document and page it came from. You confirm a fact or correct it, once. Every later draft uses the same facts.

    Fact sheet

  3. Step 3

    See which calls fit, and which do not

    Open calls are tested against your country, registration type and records. You get the ones you can win, ranked, with the reasons for and against. Calls you are not eligible for are left out, and each says why.

  1. Day 1

    Pursue a call

    One click moves a call into your pipeline. Afrant reads the call and builds a checklist from its own requirements: the documents asked for, the page limits, the deadline.

  2. Week 1

    Draft from your records

    Ask for a concept note, a logframe or a budget narrative. Each section is written from your fact sheet. Where a fact is missing, the draft leaves a visible gap instead of guessing.

  3. Week 2

    Share the work

    Tasks have owners and dates. Colleagues edit the same document, and everything anyone changes, including the assistant, is in the activity log and can be undone.

  4. Before sending

    Run the Reviewer's check

    The draft is scored against the call's own criteria, the way an assessor would, with the three changes that would raise the score most.

  5. Deadline

    Export and submit

    Export to Word or PDF. Before it does, Afrant shows you any figure in the draft that nobody has confirmed. You submit through the funder's own portal or email; Afrant does not submit for you.

  6. After the award

    Keep every promise

    The award's conditions and reporting dates are recorded. You are reminded before each report is due, and the report is drafted from the same facts.

What it does not do

Better to know before you start.

It does not submit applications
You send them yourself, through the funder's portal or by email.
It does not invent figures
If your documents do not hold a number, the draft shows a gap for you to fill.
It does not promise funding
It helps you apply to fewer, better-matched calls with stronger drafts. The funder still decides.
It does not replace your judgement
A person confirms the facts, reads the draft and decides what to send.

Questions about getting started

How long does it take to get started?

Uploading five or six documents takes a few minutes, and reading them a little longer. The part that needs you is confirming the fact sheet; we expect a first pass to take about an hour, and will publish real figures from the pilot. There is also a sample workspace you can explore before uploading anything.

What documents do I need?

A registration certificate, your most recent annual report, a budget and one past proposal are enough. A strategic plan, audit reports and policies make the matching and the drafts better. You can add more at any time.

What if we have very few documents?

You can still start. The fact sheet will be short, and drafts will show more gaps for you to fill. An interview in the chat asks you for the facts your documents do not hold.

Does Afrant apply for grants on our behalf?

No. It finds calls, checks whether you are eligible, drafts documents and keeps track of deadlines. Your team reviews everything and submits through the funder's own channel.

Afrant is in pilot and opens one organisation at a time. It is free during the pilot, and there is a sample workspace to explore before you upload anything.
