FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about cost, eligibility, and how the AI grant writer works.

Is it free?
Checking your eligibility is completely free — no signup to see which grants you qualify for, and no catch. The AI grant-writing assistant, which helps you write your full application, is a one-time $29 per application — a small fraction of what a professional grant writer charges (often $1,500–$5,000). We keep eligibility free because most nonprofits never apply for security funding they're entitled to, and we want to fix that.
Can I get a refund?
In two situations. If something went wrong on our end — the charge went through but the writer didn't unlock, or the AI failed to produce your draft — email hello@securitygrants.com any time and we'll put it right or refund you in full. And if you change your mind before using it: email within 48hours of purchase, as long as you haven't generated a draft, and we'll refund the full purchase price ($29today). Once the writer has produced your draft it has delivered what you paid for, so we don't refund after that — except where the law requires. Refunds go back to your card through Stripe and usually show up within 5–10 business days.
How do you decide which grants apply to me?
The answers you give the eligibility assistant map against the eligibility rules for each grant in our catalog (currently 24 programs — federal NSGP-UA and NSGP-S, plus state and district programs in AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, GA, IL, ME, MD, MA, MN, NJ, NY, OH, PA, TN, TX, VA, WA). Those rules come straight from each grant's public program documents, and the eligibility decision is computed by the same rules engine the site has always used — the assistant just collects your answers, it doesn't guess.
What if I'm not sure about one of the answers?
The assistant only asks about hard eligibility gates — state, 501(c)(3) status, the type of threat your organization faces, and a few state-specific rules (e.g., whether you've already received a state security grant this fiscal year, in NJ). Give your best answer — you can start over anytime. Questions about things you can change — SAM.gov registration, a threat assessment — come later in the AI grant-writing assistant, so they don't block you from seeing what you qualify for.
What is the AI grant-writing assistant?
After your eligibility check, you can unlock the AI grant-writing assistant — a conversational tool that asks a few plain-English questions about your nonprofit and the threat you face, then writes each section of your application: a threat case grounded in real, cited local data; an itemized budget that adds up to allowable cost categories; and the sustainment plan reviewers look for. Before you submit, you can run the built-in pre-submission review — it scores your draft the way a grant reviewer would, flags any fabrication or non-allowable cost, and tells you exactly what to fix. You review, edit, and approve every word; nothing is submitted on your behalf. It's a one-time $29 per application — far cheaper than hiring a grant writer.
