Grant Review AI is an advanced tool designed to give your grant proposal structured, expert-style feedback, modeled after the NIH peer review process. It helps you identify the key strengths and weaknesses in your application and ensures your proposal aligns with the criteria that funders value most. Whether you're preparing for submission or refining your draft, Grant Review AI increases your chances of success with targeted, actionable insights.

Generic AI tools can "overfit," often suggesting unnecessary changes even when your proposal is already strong. Dr. Grai’s Grant Review AI knows when your grant is solid and won't recommend changes just for the sake of it. Additionally, we ensure your data stays confidential and is never used to train OpenAI's or any third-party models.Our system specializes in providing expert feedback specifically designed to enhance your proposal. We firmly believe that you, as the researcher, are best equipped to:Assess how to best implement the feedback we provide.Authentically write and develop your own grant content.We do not use AI to write grants for you. If you’re looking for a tool to generate a grant from scratch, we recommend exploring other services. Our unique strength lies in delivering targeted, actionable feedback that no other tool currently matches.

Our AI was trained on real, voluntarily shared successful and unsuccessful grants, along with their expert reviews. We combined proprietary algorithms with templates aligned to NIH review standards, enabling our system to effectively differentiate between major and minor issues. Importantly, we use an innovative approach specifically designed to help large language models (LLMs) overcome their typical challenges—making nuanced decisions about complex topics, such as assessing whether a grant proposal is fundable. Dr. Grai is uniquely powerful at this, helping researchers effectively pinpoint improvements to complex proposals and significantly increasing their chances of securing funding.

Yes. We use the enterprise version of OpenAI, which guarantees your data is not used for training and remains secure. We do not store your uploaded proposals unless you opt in to future storage features.

If Grant Review AI didn’t offer this level of confidentiality, our founders — including a practicing academic at Harvard — wouldn’t use it either.

Yes! If you have funded or unfunded grants and are willing to share them confidentially, we’d love to include your data in our training set (With your consent). Contributors may receive discounts or special rewards to their assistance.

Absolutely. Free tools often require you to allow them to train on your data. We do not do that. We pay for premium models to protect your intellectual property and confidentiality.

We offer transparent pricing with options for one-time use and subscriptions. Be cautious with free AI services — if you're not paying, your data may be the product. We invest in top-tier AI services to ensure data privacy and accuracy.

IOne-time users: Yes, each new review incurs a fee.

Subscribers: Included with your subscription. No additional charge for revisions of the same grant

The panel chair summary simulates the experience of a real NIH review panel by aggregating insights from multiple AI “Reviewers”. It highlights consensus, disagreement, and provides a closing summary from a virtual “chair” perspective.

All feedback is based on a robust dataset of successful and unsuccessful grant proposals and expert reviews. The model mirrors real-world evaluation patterns, although grant review is always subjective.

Disclaimer: A fundable grant may score poorly in our AI review, and vice versa, because real-world decisions involve human subjectivity, panel dynamics, and institutional bias. All feedback provided by the AI, is for educational purposes only.

No. Grant Review AI is designed to complement, not replace, human peer review. It helps you pre-validate your proposal before formal submission. We are exploring adding optional human reviews to enhance our service.

No, by using our tool, you confirm that the grant is your own intellectual work. The tool is not intended to assist with official grant reviews on others' work. Doing so is in violation of our terms.

We currently align with NIH-style criteria. We welcome feedback on the current system while we explore supporting custom criteria in the future.

We are constantly working on new scientific AI tools to assist with the writing, reviewing, and publishing. As a Grant Review AI user, you’ll be the first to know when they launch.
