The Problem

Researchers spent weeks manually searching for relevant grants across dozens of databases. Most opportunities were missed because of timing, eligibility mismatches, or simply not knowing they existed.

The Approach

An AI pipeline that ingests grant databases, extracts eligibility criteria using NLP, and matches against researcher profiles. Automated alerts for new opportunities. Application timeline tracking.

The Architecture

Python/FastAPI backend with LLM-powered parsing. PostgreSQL with pgvector for semantic search. ETL pipeline processes grant feeds nightly. The matching engine scores opportunities against researcher expertise and institution eligibility.

The Results

Searching dozens of databases by hand gives way to scored matches and automated alerts, with application deadlines tracked in one place.

Built with Python, LLM, PostgreSQL, FastAPI
