Grantable

Overview

Grantable is a web-based grant workspace for nonprofits and other organizations seeking funding. It suits teams that need to find prospects and manage applications without a dedicated grant writer. Its strongest case is bringing research, drafting and deadline tracking together; daily message and import limits make the free plan a better starting point than a dependable high-volume workflow.

Key features

Funder discovery draws on funder filings, giving histories and the live web, then returns scored matches with plain-English reasoning. Discovery is free, so teams can use it for prospecting without paying for the broader workflow. Scheduled scans can also flag opportunities and funder changes.

For proposal preparation, Grantable turns an RFP into a checklist and drafts sections from an organization’s content library. Staff review and edit the output, which can help organize repeatable work but still requires human judgment. It can also draft progress reports, extending its usefulness beyond applications.

Pipeline and deadline tracking comes in list, board and calendar views, with team collaboration. Users can send work to the workspace by email. Cloud imports connect Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint, Dropbox and Box; supported files include PDF, DOCX and XLSX, while Google Docs, Sheets and Box Notes are converted on import.

Grantable says data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2+ and at rest, and customer content is not used to train AI models. Users can access, export or delete their data at any time. Its most recent SOC 2 Type II examination covered April 9–July 9, 2025; the company says it is selecting a new audit firm and does not claim an active certification. Organizations requiring current certification should weigh that carefully.

Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing and includes every capability, but caps usage at 5 chat messages a day and file imports at 10 MB. That makes it useful for exploring the workflow or occasional prospecting, but restrictive for sustained drafting or larger source files.

Starter costs $50 a month, billed $50 /month, and raises the allowance to 50 chat messages a day with unlimited file imports and 20× the AI capacity of Free. Eligible nonprofits can pay $25/mo for 1 year. It is the practical step up for an organization doing regular grant work that does not need Pro’s higher daily capacity.

Pro costs $150 a month, billed $150 /month, with 200 chat messages a day, unlimited imports and 60× the AI capacity of Free. Eligible nonprofits can pay $75/mo for 1 year. The higher quota suits heavier use, but the price is harder to justify for occasional applications.

Agency Hub add-on costs $300 a month, billed $300/mo, works with any paid plan and is intended for managing multiple clients. A separate included-users figure is 3 users; teams should account for that when assessing fit. Enterprise options to discuss with sales include SSO/SAML, custom data retention, dedicated support and API access. Pricing questions and sales inquiries go to [email protected].

Platforms

Grantable runs on the web. Its cloud imports cover five storage services, but the product’s stated platform is web rather than a collection of native desktop or mobile apps.

Who it's for

Grantable is best suited to nonprofit and grant-seeking teams that want one place to research funders, prepare applications and keep deadlines visible. The free funder discovery and import connections benefit smaller teams; organizations with frequent applications are more likely to need a paid plan’s larger message allowance. It is less compelling for teams seeking a verified active SOC 2 certification or work that exceeds the published daily quotas.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Free funder discovery with scored matches and explanations gives teams a useful way to screen prospects before committing to a paid plan.
• Pro: Checklists, content-library drafting, progress reports and pipeline views cover work across more of the grant cycle than proposal drafting alone.
• Pro: Imports from Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint, Dropbox and Box reduce the need to gather source material manually.
• Con: Free usage is capped at five messages per day and 10 MB per import, limiting serious proposal work on that tier.
• Con: Starter begins at $50 a month, while Pro is $150 a month; frequent users pay more for capacity rather than a different core workflow.
• Con: The company does not claim an active SOC 2 certification while selecting a new audit firm, a concern for organizations that require one.

Alternatives

For a broader shortlist, see Nonprofit Grant Writing Software.

Choose Grantboost if its free tier’s 10 Writer chats and 10 grant views per month suit a lighter workload, or if its Find Grants plan at $32 a year (displayed as $32/mo) fits better. Choose Grantivo if a one-time Starter purchase and a credit-based allowance better match your use. Grantora is another freemium alternative. Mavenly is a paid alternative with an API and web platform. GrantAppli offers a free plan limited to 3 grant projects. GrantLoop is a consultant-oriented option with a $2,999/mo Platform plan. Grant Assistant and ProposalMint are also alternatives.

Verdict

Grantable is a strong fit for nonprofits that want prospect research, proposal preparation and grant tracking in the same web workspace, especially when a small team has no dedicated grant staff. Free discovery lowers the barrier to trying its research workflow, while paid tiers lift the limits that constrain regular use. Look elsewhere if current SOC 2 certification is essential, or if the daily message caps and paid-plan costs do not match your application volume.
