Relief Applications

Grant Management & Donor Reporting: Turn the grant agreement into dates, tranches and reports to track.

The obligations are in the grant agreement, the deadlines in someone’s calendar and the figures in five spreadsheets.

The week a donor report is due, it gets retyped from all of them.

How it works

What each grant still needs from you.

  1. Award the grant. The fund, budget lines, reporting schedule, compliance matrix and logframe are created together.
  2. Keep track during the grant. Spend against time, obligations met or not, tranches ready to request, cash in hand.
  3. Write the report in the platform. The donor’s sections in the donor’s order, tables filled from your records, a first draft written from the data.
  4. Close it cleanly. A grant cannot close while a report, tranche or compliance gap is still open.

What it does.

Award
The fund, budget lines, reporting schedule, compliance matrix and logframe, created together.
Grant page
The grant’s life-cycle, what needs doing now, and each budget line against time.
Compliance register
Obligations area by area, with evidence and who checked.
Tranches and cash
Scheduled to reconciled, conditions read from the records, a 12-month cash forecast.
Amendments
No-cost extensions, budget revisions and scope changes, from draft to approved.
Donor report writer
The donor’s sections in the donor’s order, tables filled from your records.
Four-eyes rules
The author cannot approve their own report.
Reporting calendar
The reports you owe, across all your grants.
Clean closure
A grant cannot close while a report, tranche or compliance gap is open.

The full list

Grant page
Life-cycle strip (award, set-up, first funds, implementation, reporting, disbursements, compliance, closure), what needs doing now, budget line by line against time.
Compliance register
Obligations area by area (Met / In progress / Gap / N/A) with evidence and who checked.
Amendments
No-cost extensions, budget revisions, scope changes, from draft to approved.
Tranches and cash
Scheduled → Requested → Approved by donor → Received → Reconciled; conditions read from the records; a 12-month cash forecast.
Donor reports
Narrative and tables built from the records (logframe values, activities, people reached by sex/age/disability, budget vs expenditure, risks); “Draft from the data”; “Ready to leave?” checks; Word/PDF/Excel export; figures frozen once sent.
Four-eyes rules
The author cannot approve their own report; whoever records a receipt does not reconcile it.
Donor pages
Priorities, terms, report format, money by year, on-time reporting record.
Reallocations tested against the donor’s flexibility rules
Before anyone signs (see Finance).
Reporting calendar
All grants on one calendar, with what is due next.

What makes the difference

  • Donor reports are drafted from your own records.
  • A grant can only close once every obligation is met.
  • Spending ahead of progress (84% of the money for 45% of the work) is flagged during the grant.

With your AI agent

One question can cross several modules.

The grant holder edits the draft, the country director approves it, and a person sends it.

Before you book a demo.

Can we move money between budget lines mid-grant?

Yes, within the donor’s rules. A reallocation is tested against the donor’s flexibility rules before anyone signs. No-cost extensions, budget revisions and scope changes are recorded as amendments, each with its own approval.

Will figures change after a report is sent?

No. Figures are frozen once the report is sent, and its author cannot approve it. Whoever records a tranche receipt does not reconcile it either.

Can we start with Grant Management & Donor Reporting alone?

Yes. Each organisation starts with the base, then picks its modules. You can start with one and add others later.

Can we switch a module off later?

You can, and its data is kept. A module switched off disappears from menus and search, and switching it back on restores it.

Can you import from our spreadsheets and current tools?

Yes: people, projects, budgets, policies, files (including a one-time import or a live two-way sync with Google Drive), and the content of your existing workbooks. Connectors to your other systems are built as part of the project.
