Stop missing UK and EU grants. £0.10/new match instead of £2,000–15,000/year.
Monitors Innovate UK's Funding Service, UKRI's real open-opportunities listing, and the EU's Horizon Europe funding portal for grant opportunities matching your keywords. Only charges when new opportunities are found. Remembers what you've already seen between runs.
Sources covered
- Innovate UK — R&D grants, innovation challenges, Smart Grants, Feasibility Studies (apply-for-innovation-funding.service.gov.uk)
- UKRI — the real, current open-opportunities listing at ukri.org/opportunity/ — a documented gap found and fixed on 2026-09-07: this used to call UKRI's Gateway to Research API, which is a historical database of already-awarded funding on completed/ongoing projects, not open calls a business could apply to. Switched to the real source.
- Horizon Europe — the EU's real funding & tenders search API (api.tech.ec.europa.eu), filtered client-side to genuinely open topics (real future deadline dates) — the original GET-based integration was calling the wrong HTTP method entirely (a real 405) and has been fixed to the real required POST format.
- Grants.gov — US federal grants (optional)
Use cases
- UK tech SMEs monitoring Innovate UK AI/deep tech calls
- Grant writers tracking multiple funding streams for clients
- University research offices monitoring open calls across all UKRI councils
- Charities and NGOs tracking public funding opportunities
Inputs
| Field | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
keywords | required | Topics matching your area (e.g. 'AI', 'net zero', 'digital health') |
organisationType | sme | Filter for eligible org types |
fundingSources | innovate_uk, ukri, horizon_europe | Which databases to scan |
minFundingGbp | 10000 | Minimum grant value to include |
publishedWithinDays | 30 | Only return recently opened grants |
includeClosingSoon | true | Flag grants closing within 14 days |
Output fields
Each record includes: grantId, source, isNew, title, description, fundingBody, fundingAmountMin, fundingAmountMax, isHighValue, closingAt, closingSoon, grantUrl, matchedKeyword, eligibleOrganisations.
Known limitation, honestly disclosed: Horizon Europe records always report fundingAmountMax: null. The EU portal's real API does carry per-topic funding figures (budgetOverview), but they're nested under internal numeric topic IDs that don't reliably map back to the public identifier for a specific call — rather than risk attributing the wrong figure to the wrong topic, this is left null. Innovate UK and UKRI both report real, correctly-attributed funding amounts (parsed directly from each source's own real page text).
Run on a schedule
