FAQ

Is this Grants.gov scraper free?

Yes. The Actor is free; you only use your normal Apify platform credit. Turn off enrich for a faster, list-only run.

Why do some grants have no close date?

Forecasted opportunities often have no close date yet, so set closingWithinDays only if you want firm deadlines. Always confirm the details on Grants.gov before you apply.

Which eligibility codes mean nonprofit?

12 = 501(c)(3) nonprofits, 13 = nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, 25 = others. Join codes with |.
