    Illustrative example · built from connected sources

    Rosa’s new awning went up in September, and people on the corridor noticed. One customer posted that week: “Didn’t even know Rosa’s was still open until I saw the new awning.” The next week, fourteen merchants showed up to the façade workshop. Three more storefronts applied for the same grant. By December 31, 31 of the block’s 38 storefronts were open. A year earlier it was 24.

    Every line of that comes from something already on file: the corridor liaison’s notes, customers’ and merchants’ own posts, the workshop sign-in sheets. None of it was written for the report.

The grant workflow

Six steps.You do three.

You add the award letter. MissionAligned extracts the grant facts, builds the funder’s checklist, gathers the evidence and drafts the answers. The draft exists months before the deadline, so due day is a review, not a scramble.

Where it comes from

Sixteen sources.One record.

MissionAligned does not create a new data store. It assembles source-traceable inputs from the systems you already run, and keeps the source on every line.

Sixteen sources, from grant and award records to evidence-review metadata, feed one structured record: who, what, program, grant, type, evidence and source. That one record produces the grant report, the board packet, the funder update and the 990 narrative. The full list of sources is under “See all sixteen sources”.

One capture, every home it belongs to

Filed once.Answers three.

A capture is matched to a program. Every grant that funds that program can use it, in the words that funder asks for.

One post. Two programs. Three funders answered.

One capture, Rosa’s Instagram post on Tuesday at 9:14 (“New awning is up!” $4,180), is matched to two programs. Business Corridor answers the ACF-OCS CED Q3 report (“Physical improvements completed”, reviewed) and the City CDBG annual report (“Storefronts assisted”, needs review). Merchant Resilience answers the Kresge progress report (“Businesses stabilized”, needs review).

Operations, not just reporting

An easy first step with AI

AI files.People decide.

  • AI reads, files and drafts.
  • You review the draft; nothing is claimed until you approve it.
  • Every fact keeps its source.
  • Every AI you use gets better, because the data is already tied to your programs and grants.

The record shows evidence available for reporting. It never claims proven impact on its own.

Pricing
