Put AI on the repetition
Hunting for programs, reading long funding notices end to end, retyping the same organization, and rebuilding last year’s story should not be what a grant team spends its year on.
About CivAura
Grant capacity should not depend on who has time this week.
CivAura is an AI-native grant platform built on one idea: institutions start with projects, not with grants — and the project is what every stage of the funding lifecycle actually needs.
Our point of view
Grant software was built around the wrong thing.
Grant tools are built around an opportunity, a proposal, or a submission. Every one of those is temporary. The project is the thing that persists — before the notice, through the application, and long after the award.
Give AI that context and the work stops restarting. That is the whole product thesis.
One connected system
What we are building
One system that covers the whole grant.
CivAura follows the project from a first plan through the reports that keep coming after an award — finding the funding, reading the notice, and writing the application along the way, with your people in control at every stage.
- 01PlanDescribe what you want to do. CivAura turns it into a plan you can edit and reuse.
- 02FindIt finds grants that match the project and tells you whether you can apply.
- 03ApplyIt pulls the notice, writes the application, fills the forms, and lists what it still needs from you.
- 04ManageWhen you win, everything carries over, so the reports do not start from scratch.
Product principles
Specific enough for serious institutional work.
Ground the work in evidence
The funder’s own documents, details a person confirmed, requirements quoted from the notice, and work you can trace back to its source matter more than fluent, unverifiable confidence.
Respect institutional authority
Software can prepare and coordinate work without taking over signatures, certifications, or final decisions.
Make handoffs durable
Grant work should still make sense to the next person when it crosses departments, systems, and reporting periods.
Who CivAura serves
Institutions accountable for pursuing and managing funding.
Different funding environments, one shared constraint: valuable projects, fragmented institutional knowledge, and limited grant capacity.
Government
Cities, counties, districts, and public agencies running capital, resilience, and community programs with a very small grants bench.
ExploreHigher education & research
Sponsored programs offices, research centers, and faculty projects preparing many proposals against the same institutional facts.
ExploreHealthcare
Health systems, hospitals, and public-health programs whose grant work spans clinical, community, capital, and workforce teams.
ExploreNonprofits
Program and development teams pursuing more funders than their staffing realistically allows.
