Questions

Before you decide

The grant listings are public. What are we paying for?

The listings are free, and so are the filings behind them. Reading them is a legitimate strategy and the best grant writers do it. What is not free is the time. One funder's return takes an afternoon to read properly, and the answer you need is not in one return: it is in the pattern across every grant that funder has ever made. Sharke is modeled from funder behavior and gives you one verdict per grant with the funder's own record underneath it. The data being public is true. It is not the same as the data being the product.

How is this different from a grant-matching database?

A matching database hands you a longer list to triage. Sharke checks the list against documented funder behavior and tells you what deserves staff time.

Do we have to sign a contract?

No. Subscriptions are month to month, and you can cancel anytime. The Assessment is a one-time purchase.

We already run a CRM. Do we have to move anything?

No. Keep your CRM: Sharke is not one and is not asking you to move anything. What comes out of Sharke is a decision on each grant, verified against the funder's own record, and your verdicts, funders, and deadlines export whenever you want them.

The grant team or the grant office: which one is us?

It comes down to who submits, and how far the work goes. On the grant team, Sharke does the work through the first draft of the application, and you approve it and send it, starting at $99 a month. In the grant office, Sharke prepares the full application package and submits it with your approval, from $399 a month. Both are priced by your organization, not by who is on staff.
