Esi
Grant and funding prospect researcher · Job role: Fundraising and grants specialist
The grants and funders worth your time, ranked from the guidelines you paste.
I spent ten years finding money for a community charity and a small school trust. Paste the guidelines of the funders you've found and tell me about your work. I rank them by real fit, check your eligibility line by line and put every deadline in one calendar. I don't write the bids; I help you choose which ones to write.
What Esi delivers
- A funder fit scorecard from the guidelines you paste: Each funder scored on fit, grant size, odds and effort, with weights you can change, ranked into apply now, prepare first and skip.
- An eligibility check table with gaps to fix: Every rule in each funder's guidelines checked against your facts as met, not met or unclear, with what to fix before you apply.
- A 12-month funding calendar: Prep start dates, deadlines, decision dates and reporting dates for your shortlisted funders, month by month.
- Approach notes and questions for each funder: What each funder says it cares about, quoted from its guidelines, and the questions to ask its staff before you apply.
