Grants for small businesses and nonprofits
Grant writing for the rest of us.
Our AI finds your grant, writes it, checks it, and watches for the next one.
Not ready to buy? See which grants fit you and why. No account needed.
Running a nonprofit? See how we write nonprofit applications.
Most businesses and nonprofits qualify for more than they think.
The barrier was rarely the grants. No one ever looked at your business and told you what fits. That's what we do.
WinAGrant is a small-business grant matching and application-writing service. It finds grants your business qualifies for and drafts the applications for you. You review and submit them.

Main Street Small Business Growth Grant
Executive Summary
Salt Run Brewing Co., a woman-owned craft brewery in St. Augustine, Florida, requests $25,000 through the Main Street Small Business Growth Grant. The funds will support three linked investments: a second fermentation tank, a canning line, and one new full-time hire. Together they expand the brewery's production capacity and create a local job.
Founded in 2021, Salt Run Brewing Co. runs a taproom and small-batch production brewery. The company employs four people and brought in $480,000 last year. Every beer is brewed on site and sold two ways: over the taproom bar and wholesale to local restaurants and bottle shops.
Wholesale demand has outgrown the brewery's current fermentation setup. Without more tank capacity and a canning line, Salt Run cannot fill new wholesale orders, add retail accounts, or scale production to meet demand. This project closes that gap with targeted equipment and one key hire.
We check funder pages for changes daily. When a page changes, we verify the grant again.
Why we don't look like the other grant sites.
Most are search engines that hand you a database, or fintech platforms that use “free grants” to funnel you into a credit card.
How we check your work
Any AI can write a grant application. Whether it got the facts right is a different question. Ours writes from 28 rules built from federal reviewer guidance, Grant Professionals Association standards, and published funder scoring criteria.
Then comes the part that makes a WinAGrant draft different from a plain AI answer: Strayguard™. Every draft is sent to it. It scores the draft against the funder's published criteria, runs a set of in-house checks we don't publish, and flags details it can't trace to your answers. Do the budget numbers add up? Is “four years in business” actually four years? If the score is low, we try one rewrite and give you the stronger version. If the review can't finish, your draft page tells you. Meet Strayguard →
Missing a fact the grant hinges on, like your state or certification? We ask. The writer is told to use only your facts. Where it needs one you haven't given, it leaves a marked blank, and you confirm or cut anything the reviewer flags.
A note from the founder
I built this for the people I know.
Friends, family, the people down the street who run a business on their own. None of them have ever applied for a grant. It felt like a club you had to know someone to get into.
I run a business too, and when I finally looked into it, I saw why. One site hid the price. One matched me to a credit card. One handed me 10,000 results and wished me luck. Finding a grant shouldn't feel like a second job.
Most of the grant world was built for organizations with a grant writer on staff. Not for people running a business on their own.
So I built what I wanted for them: a place that looks at your business and says, here's the money you could qualify for, and our AI will write the paperwork.
The only grant you're guaranteed not to win is the one you never apply for.

Question 1 of 4
Question 1 of 4
What type of business do you have?
All our pricing. Right here.

What $25 includes
- One full first draft in your voice, written from your answers, for a grant you qualify for
- Built on 28 rules from federal reviewer guidance and the funder's own criteria

What you still do
- Pay any application fee the funder charges. It goes to the funder, not to us.
- If the funder asks for documents, add them. Your draft comes with the list.
- Read it, change anything you like, and submit it on the funder's own site.
From a real draft for a sample business. Yours is written from your answers. Read the full sample draft →

Real questions. Plain answers.
Is this one of those grant scams?
Fair question. The category is full of them. Our price is on the homepage, and our grants are real federal, state, and private programs (Grants.gov, SBA, state agencies, and private funders). Before you pay a cent, you see every match by name: what it pays, when it closes, how well it fits. Paying buys the writing. We never call or email saying you’ve “won.” A real grant is not a loan: you never pay it back. We never ask for your bank login or Social Security number, and you send every application yourself.
Do you actually write the applications, or just give me a template?
Actual applications, tailored to your business and the grant. Claude (the AI from Anthropic) drafts them from your quiz answers. You review, edit, and submit. One for $25, or 10 for $97.
Is the 10 per month? Per year?
Neither. The $97 includes 10 total, for any grants you choose, and they never expire. Use 3 this year and save 7 for better matches next year. Each one we write is yours to keep. Single applications are $25 anytime, with or without the $97, and those never expire either.
What if nothing good comes up for me?
Then we don't charge you. Want one that came up? Write it for $25. Nothing fits yet? Our free watch emails you when a new grant fits. No card, no charge.
Will I actually win one?
No one can promise that, and anyone who does is lying. Grants are competitive. What we can promise: you'll see which grants match your answers on their published rules, and your draft will be ready to review and send. Your match list shows each grant's real dollar figure. Even a modest one covers $25 or $97 many times over.
Who is this for?
U.S. small businesses and nonprofits: sole proprietors, LLCs, partnerships. Any state, any industry. We match federal, state, and private programs across manufacturing, tech, agriculture, healthcare, retail, services, and more. Nonprofits can see how we write their applications.
After the $97, will I be charged again?
No. The $97 is one charge. Scout, our email alerts for new grants and deadlines, is free right now for anyone who gives us an email: no card, nothing renews. Past your 10, applications are $25 each. No hidden fees, ever. Some funders charge their own application fee, and we show it on the card.
Is the $25 refundable?
Yes, in two cases. If the grant you bought an application for wasn't real, had already closed when you bought, or is objectively closed to businesses like yours, we refund the $25. And if you find you don't qualify for the grant you picked, email hello@winagrant.com within 14 days of purchase and we refund the $25 (one $25 purchase per customer). If the grant hasn't opened yet when you buy, those 14 days start the day it opens. On the $97, if a grant from your matches wasn't real or had already closed when you used an application on it, you get that application back or a credit, and if a large share of your matches weren't real, had already closed, or weren't something your business could apply for, we refund the full $97. If a draft fails to finish on our end, your credit comes back automatically.
Grant writers typically charge $1,500 to $5,000 per application. Our AI writes yours for $25.

Then we take it off your plate. Our AI Grant Writer writes your application to the grant's rules, from your answers, and every draft is sent to Strayguard™, which scores it against what the funder asks for. Plus a checklist of what you need to apply. $25 for one, or $97 for 10.
