Know if you qualify
We read your plan and check the rules that rule you in or out before anything else.
- SME status from headcount, turnover, and balance sheet
- Eligible countries and applicant types
- Whether you can apply alone or need a consortium
For SMEs and startups
EU funding without a grants department.
You don't have weeks to read work programmes. Upload your business plan and see which open calls a company of your size, country, and stage can actually apply for, and how crowded each one is likely to be.
- SME status checked against the EU definition
- Single-applicant calls flagged
- Your plan is never used for training

Decide where to apply before you write a word
For a small company, one proposal can take a founder out of the business for a month. GrantMatcher helps you pick the one or two calls worth that month.
See the competition
A success range for each call, based on how many proposals past rounds received and how many were funded.
- Compare calls on odds, not just on budget
- Every number links to its public source
- No estimate where data isn't published
Never miss a cut-off
Matched calls land on one deadline calendar, including forthcoming calls announced in the work programmes.
- Email alerts when a matching call opens
- Notice when a call you saved changes
- Plan applications months ahead
A typical first session
From pitch deck to shortlist in an afternoon
Upload what you already have
A business plan, pitch deck, or one-page summary. No need to write anything new. You can also fill in a short form instead.
Confirm your profile
Check the extracted facts: country, size, sector, technology readiness, and how much funding you're looking for. Correct anything we got wrong.
Review your ranked matches
Each call shows why it matched, which requirements you're missing, and a success range. Save the ones worth a closer look.
Learn from past winners
Read the summaries and budgets of similar companies that were funded under the same topic, so you know what evaluators have backed before.
Before you start
What GrantMatcher does and doesn't do
We help you choose. The proposal is still yours to write, and its quality still decides the outcome.
We don't write proposals. If you want writing support, work with a grant consultant. Many use GrantMatcher themselves.
Odds describe the competition, not you. They tell you how crowded a call is, not how good your proposal will be.
Regional funding is only partly covered. We cover every call on the EU Funding & Tenders Portal. National and regional calls are included only where a structured source exists. See coverage.
