Grant intelligence that levels the field
We're building the grant research tools that only the largest nonprofits could afford — and making them accessible to every organization with a mission worth funding.
The problem
Small nonprofits lose months searching for funders who were never going to fund them.
The traditional approach — hiring a $5K-$20K grants consultant or sifting through keyword databases — leaves most nonprofits guessing. They apply broadly, hear nothing, and burn time they don't have.
Our approach
Follow the money. Analyze what funders actually fund.
NeuralGrant applies AI and semantic search to publicly available IRS 990 data — over a decade of real giving records from every private foundation in the country. We match nonprofits to funders based on evidence, not keywords.
Leadership
Marko Bajic
Founder & CEO
Experienced engineering leader who spent years building large-scale data systems and saw an opportunity to apply AI where it could make a real difference — helping nonprofits find the right funders.
The idea started with a simple observation: every private foundation in America files detailed tax returns listing exactly who they fund and how much. That data is public, but it's locked in millions of XML documents that no individual nonprofit could ever search through.
NeuralGrant applies semantic search and AI analysis to this public IRS data — turning raw 990 filings into actionable grant intelligence. Instead of guessing which foundations might be a fit, nonprofits can see which ones already fund organizations like theirs.
Our approach
Real giving records
We analyze every IRS 990 and 990-PF filing to build a complete picture of who funds what, how much they give, and how their giving changes over time.
AI-powered matching
Our AI understands what nonprofits do and matches them to funders based on mission alignment and actual giving patterns — not just shared keywords.
Actionable intelligence
Fit scores, peer benchmarks, financial health indicators, and prioritized prospect lists — everything a nonprofit needs to focus on the right funders.

We are building AI-powered grant intelligence tools that help nonprofits find matching funders, benchmark against peer organizations, and strengthen their grant applications — all powered by deep analysis of public IRS 990 filings.
