The GrantHub alternative designed for institutional fundraising

Intelligent matching to grant RFPs and foundation profiles

  • Curate your grant shortlist in minutes: Instrumentl matches you to relevant opportunities based on your organization and programs. It's so easy you can do this in under 10 minutes. GrantHub can't do this.
  • Find additional funding opportunities: Instrumentl's Foundation Discovery matches you to funders that may not even have websites or are invite-only. GrantHub can't do this.
  • Count on just one tool: GrantHub relies on third-party providers such as GrantStation and GuideStar for RFPs and Foundation Profiles. Instrumentl doesn't need this because we house and process all our information in-house.

Detailed funder and recipient insights

Detailed funder and recipient insights

  • Reverse search funders fast: Instrumentl makes it easy for you to lookup a similar nonprofit to yours to see who funded them. You can't do this with GrantHub.
  • Recognize meaningful funder trends: GrantHub can't help you research funders whereas Instrumentl's Advanced Funder Insights allows you to see things such as how open a funder is to new grantees, geographical giving, grant sizes, and giving by category.
  • Powerful quick find to help your research efforts: Instrumentl lets you lookup a funder by EIN or name, or grant opportunity in seconds. GrantHub doesn't have this capability.

Automagical deadline reminders and funder updates

  • Stay on top of every grant proposal: Instrumentl notifies you whenever funders change priority or submission requirements for opportunities you've saved. In GrantHub, you're on your own to keep things up-to-date.
  • Get weekly summaries of everything important: Instrumentl sends you comprehensive weekly emails of your upcoming saved grant deadlines, including opportunities previously won and lost. GrantHub only updates you on your active opportunities.
