RDProof

RDProof is a web app (with optional mobile companion) that helps economic development agencies, universities, and corporate innovation teams track whether R&D funding actually produces measurable outcomes. It ingests grant awards, project milestones, spend categories, patents/publications, hiring, and vendor payments, then ties them to standardized KPIs (jobs created, follow-on funding, commercialization signals, regional spillovers). The AI layer auto-classifies documents, flags missing evidence, and generates audit-ready quarterly reports with clear attribution logic. The honest reality: attribution is messy and stakeholders game metrics. RDProof doesn’t pretend to “solve causality”; it focuses on defensible evidence trails, consistency, and faster reporting. It also benchmarks projects against similar cohorts (sector, budget, region) so reviewers can spot outliers early and intervene before money is wasted.
