Source intelligence
Funding source monitoring with provenance from day one
FundingLens treats each funding source as an integration with provenance, usage assumptions, refresh cadence and known gaps.
Who this helps
Teams that need reliable public-source monitoring and an audit trail for each opportunity.
Search intent
Understand which public funding sources a grant intelligence tool monitors.
What makes this page publishable
Sets source-quality expectations before promising coverage and points readers to official sources.
Initial scope is UK-first with US-ready architecture: GOV.UK Find a grant, Innovate UK and Grants.gov where practical.
Each integration should document fetch method, legal assumptions, failure modes, rate limits and refresh cadence.
Every opportunity stores source URL, fetched timestamp, source fields and AI-generated fields separately.
Readiness checks
- Verify the source is public and appropriate to monitor.
- Record fetch time, source fields and errors.
- Do not claim full coverage until ingestion and QA evidence exist.
Eligibility caveats
- FundingLens explains fit signals, eligibility caveats and next steps; it does not promise funding success or application approval.
- Always check the official funder page before acting because deadlines, match-funding rules and eligible costs can change.
- AI output must stay separate from verified source facts and should be reviewed before being used in an application.
