Are you at the right stage for your programme?

Five questions about what you have built, tested and can prove. You get your technology and business readiness — worked out from evidence, not picked off a ladder — and the schemes that fit where you are now.

  • Uses the BRIDGE2HE method and Innovasjon Norge’s BRL scale
  • Shows when your evidence caps the level you can claim
  • Nothing is uploaded or stored

How your review is produced

Not one pass over your document. Five, each answering a different question, with the answers reconciled against each other before anything is written.

Upload

Proposal, plus any annexes, budget or deck you want reconciled against it.

Programme rules

Routed to that programme’s own contract — criteria, thresholds, page limits, eligibility.

Audit passes

Excellence, Impact and Implementation assessed separately, so a strong section cannot mask a weak one.

Reconciliation

Every claim checked against every other document you gave us. Contradictions surface here.

Report delivery

A three-page Fix Sheet and the full review, by email, as PDFs.

What a finding actually looks like

Where it is, the rule it breaks, the fix — and a test for the rewrite. Always quoted from your own document.

Critical Implementation
Issue

Partner ownership of the exploitable result is never stated. Two partners are described as owning the same output.

Where

Section 3.2, p.14 against Annex B, p.3

Why it costs you

Evaluators are required to assess exploitation credibility. An unresolved ownership question reads as an unmanaged risk, not an oversight.

Fix

Name the owning partner and the licence route back to the consortium in 3.2, and make Annex B agree.

Re-review test

A reader can answer “who owns it and on what terms” from 3.2 alone.

High Impact
Issue

The market figure is asserted without a source, and the addressable share is not derived from it.

Where

Section 2.1, p.8

Why it costs you

An unsourced number invites the evaluator to discount every figure that depends on it, including your revenue model.

Fix

Cite the source and year, then show the two assumptions that take you from total market to your served share.

Re-review test

Each figure traces to a source or a stated assumption.

High Cross-document
Issue

The proposal promises a pilot in month 9. The budget funds no pilot costs before month 14.

Where

Proposal §4.1 vs Budget, WP3 vs Gantt, p.2

Why it costs you

This is the class of error a human reviewer misses at 11pm and an evaluator finds first, because they read the budget against the plan.

Fix

Move the pilot to month 14, or fund it in WP3 from month 8. Make the Gantt match whichever you choose.

Re-review test

Plan, budget and Gantt state the same month.

Reviewing drafts for clients or a cohort?

Consultancies, grant offices and accelerators run the first pass on every draft in parallel, so their experts spend deadline week on the judgement calls. Volume packages are arranged by hand while this is a pilot.

Qazi Sohail Ahmad

Who is behind this

Qazi Sohail Ahmad — two decades writing and reviewing EU and national grant applications. The evaluator knowledge in this engine is his, written down and versioned rather than held in one person’s head.

GrantWise is small and says so. Packages are invoiced personally, support comes from the founder, and nothing here claims a team that does not exist.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly do I receive?

A three-page Fix Sheet with the changes that matter most, and the full review behind it, as PDFs. Every finding quotes your text, names the rule it breaks and gives a correction with a model answer. We do not pad reports to reach a number.

What does it cost, and do I pay before or after?

You pay once, before the review runs: €50 for shorter applications (EIC Stage 1, Women TechEU, Innowwide, Oppstartstilskudd 1) and €150 for full dossiers (EIC Stage 2, EIC Transition, EIC Pathfinder, ERC Proof of Concept, Horizon Europe, Eurostars, Oppstartstilskudd 2, SkatteFUNN, the EIT KICs). No account, no subscription, 14-day money back. Reviewing several a year? Volume packages start at €1,200.

Why is there no free preview?

Each review costs real model time, and we would rather charge honestly than raise the price for everyone who buys. Instead you can read a complete sample report first, use the free readiness check and checklists, and get a refund if your review is not worth it.

Is this an official evaluation?

No. It simulates how an evaluator reads against published criteria. It cannot predict a funding decision and it can be wrong — check every fact, deadline and eligibility statement against your official call.

How long does it take, and do I have to wait on the page?

Usually five to eight minutes; large dossiers take longer. You can close the tab — the report arrives by email.

Can I get a re-review after fixing things?

Yes — that is the intended use. Fix the top corrections, upload again, and compare the two reports.

What happens to my proposal?

Processed in memory in the EU, never written to disk, never used for training. Only the generated report is kept, until it is delivered or the recovery window expires. Full privacy policy.

Do I lose my right to cancel by buying?

No. We do not ask you to waive your 14-day cooling-off period — change your mind within 14 days and you get a full refund.

See it the way the evaluator will — while you can still change it

Pay once, get the review in five to eight minutes, and a refund if it gives you nothing worth acting on.
