GrantGuard

GrantGuard is a web app (with optional mobile companion) that helps local governments and nonprofits stay compliant with grant requirements without drowning in spreadsheets. It centralizes award documents, reporting deadlines, allowable-cost rules, and evidence (invoices, timesheets, photos) into one place. The app generates a plain-language compliance checklist per grant, assigns tasks to owners, and flags missing documentation or late reporting. An AI layer can extract key obligations from PDFs, suggest required artifacts, and draft narrative report sections—while keeping a clear audit trail of what was generated vs. uploaded. Reality check: this won’t magically fix messy internal processes; it succeeds only if it’s dead-simple and integrates with existing finance workflows. The core value is reducing clawbacks, audit findings, and staff panic right before submission deadlines.
