What we believe
Three principles we will not compromise
Collaboration over competition
Research moves faster when it is shared. We exist to connect researchers across borders and disciplines, not to keep them apart.
For researchers, always
Our only loyalty is to the academic looking for funding and partners. We surface public funding opportunities and link you straight to the source.
Built to widen access
Opportunity should not depend on the size of your institution. The funding search is free forever, and Member is priced to be affordable for an individual researcher.
Transparency
How GRP works, and how we make money
We aggregate funding opportunities from public funders and link you to the original source. That data is, and should be, free. Membership pays for what happens next: deadline alerts, saved searches, worldwide collaborator matching, an AI grant-proposal assistant, and the showcase. Institutions pay for team seats, a branded showcase and visibility support.
That is the whole model. No selling your data, no hidden fees.
