Quillify is the alternative that writes the proposal too. It finds what you qualify for, drafts from your own documents, and keeps every deadline after you win.

Switching to Quillify
Choose Quillify if you need contracts or lenders as well as grants, you want to know which funders accept applications before you write, or you want an assistant that holds your pipeline instead of a tool you drive one prompt at a time.
Our customers have won $6.6M+. Read their stories. Browsing and keyword search are free, so you can see what you qualify for before you pay anything.
“AI drafts all sound the same.”
Quillify writes from your own documents: past proposals, budgets, bios, and results. The draft carries your facts and your voice.
“I’ll spend longer fixing it than writing it.”
Our customers used to spend 200 to 250 hours on an SBIR. With Quillify it takes about 5, from go decision to submission. Read their stories.
“My documents will end up training someone’s model.”
Your content is never used to train foundation models. See the security model.
“I don’t know what it will cost me.”
Searching is free. You only pay for the credits you buy. See pricing.
The real choice is doing it yourself
Here is the work, step by step, by hand and with Quillify.
| By hand | With Quillify | |
|---|---|---|
| Finding what fits | Hours across funder sites, portals, and newsletters | One search across grants, federal and state contracts, and community lenders |
| Reading the requirements | You read the announcement and hope nothing gets missed | Every requirement pulled into a checklist before you commit |
| Writing the proposal | 50 to 400 hours, by our founder’s count from customer interviews | A draft from documents you already have, the same day |
| After you win | Reporting dates kept in a spreadsheet | Your award letter read into a calendar of every obligation |
| What it costs | Staff time, or a hired writer | $0 to start, plans from $99 a month |
Monday by hand
You end the day with a list of opportunities and a blank page for each one.
Monday with Quillify
You end the day with a checked draft ready for review and its deadlines on your calendar.
What Quillify fixes
If the gap is that you are doing the work yourself, that is the one Quillify was built for. Lil’ Q holds what you are pursuing, what is due, and what each funder wants, and drafts against all of it. Most tools on the list below are a database with a writer attached, which leaves the assembling to you. Our head-to-head with Granted AI has the detail.
If the gap is coverage, note that almost everything here is built around nonprofits. Quillify does not ask what kind of entity you are, and federal and state contracts and community lenders sit in the same search as grants.
