2026 federal cuts pushed thousands of nonprofits into grant research for the first time, and the incumbent tool charges $299 to $999 a month. Grant Radar reads live Grants.gov opportunities, scores each one against your mission and budget, and tells you what closes next, for $39 a month.
How it works
No demo call, no onboarding week, no CRM you did not ask for. Pick a focus, read your matches, watch the deadlines.
We query the federal Grants.gov register live, pre-filtered to opportunities where nonprofits are eligible applicants, in your program area.
Every opportunity gets a fit score from eligibility rules, award size against your budget, mission keywords, and deadline runway, plus a one-line plain-English reason.
The deadline board highlights everything closing inside 30 days. Paid plans add weekly digests and alerts before every close date on your shortlist.
Live radar
This is not a screenshot. The list below is queried from the Grants.gov Search API when you load the page, filtered to nonprofit-eligible opportunities, soonest deadline first.
Opportunity data: Grants.gov, the U.S. government's federal grant register, queried through its public Search API. Fit scores are Grant Radar's own screening estimate computed in your browser from published eligibility codes, award ceilings, and close dates. Always confirm eligibility in the official notice before applying.

Real figures from each foundation's latest IRS 990-PF filing with extracted data (tax year 2023), via ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer, captured August 8, 2026. Radar+ matches funders to your mission from the full 990-PF grant records, including who they funded, for how much, and in which state.
Pricing
Instrumentl is excellent software priced for funded grant teams: $299 to $999 a month on annual plans. GrantWatch at $249 a year is keyword search with no ranking. The org with a $600K budget and no grant writer sits in the empty middle. That is who Grant Radar is for.
Early access
