Your business profile
One template. We populate it together: entity type, demographics, certifications, mission, programs, financials, prior funding. This becomes the source of truth the system runs against.
Most agencies invoice their clients. Easley Labs finds the funders who would rather pay us. The grant finder is a reusable system that scans 100+ funder sources, scores fit, and drafts your applications. Free with every engagement.
If you are a BIPOC founder, a woman-owned business, a veteran, a DBE, or any small business with a real story and a real impact, there is funding out there built specifically for you. Most of it goes unclaimed because finding it takes hours, applying to it takes hours, and most agencies don't bother.
Easley Labs bothers. The grant finder is the system that bothers automatically.
"Yeah, that's what they're doing. That's Elon Musk. That's these big big whatever. Kenneth is always saying you want to get the money."Tonya Milligan, founder of Rent-A-Theme, on the meeting where this strategy was confirmed
The system reads your business profile, scans 100+ funder sources, scores every match, and drafts the top 5 applications for you to review. You sign and submit. We refresh the pipeline every 90 days.
One template. We populate it together: entity type, demographics, certifications, mission, programs, financials, prior funding. This becomes the source of truth the system runs against.
The system scans government grant databases, foundation directories, demographic-specific funders, corporate sponsorship pages, and DBE set-asides. Curated source list updated every 90 days.
Drops anything you don't qualify for: wrong entity type, wrong geography, wrong mission focus, expired deadlines. No wasted applications.
Every remaining match gets scored 1 to 5 across four dimensions: fit, effort, deadline urgency, dollar range. Total out of 20. Anything 14+ is a strong target.
Spreadsheet plus markdown table. 15 to 25 ranked targets per cycle. Each tagged with a status: apply now, LOI first, sponsor outreach, relationship build, wait for next cycle.
Full LOI, application, or sponsorship pitch written using your business profile and the specific funder's prompts. Marked clearly where you need to fill in your own input.
You are always the signer. We do not submit on your behalf. Easley Labs revises drafts based on your edits, then it's yours to send.

Community giving aligned with senior isolation. Two pathways: faster sponsorship now, larger community benefit grant in year two via 501(c)(3) partner.
Multi-program platform. Build the profile once, apply to many. Goldman Sachs Black in Business alumni often qualify and win Hello Alice grants.
Plus 17 more ranked targets including Tory Burch Foundation, Goldman Sachs alumni, IFundWomen, Children's Hospital Colorado, UCHealth, Xcel Energy Foundation, DPS Foundation My Spark, Denver Office of Economic Development, Eisner Foundation (via partnership), Generations United, RRF Foundation for Aging, CDOT DBE Supportive Services, DIA DBE, King Soopers, and Wells Fargo Colorado.
If none of these apply but you have a real impact story and real revenue, we can still find corporate sponsorship targets. The grant finder pivots to brand activation pitches when grant eligibility is narrow.
The grant finder is part of how we deliver value. If we can shift the cost of building your website or running your pilot from your pocket onto a grant or sponsor, that is a better outcome for you and a better story for us.
If you sign with Easley Labs, the grant finder runs for you. Every 90 days, we refresh your pipeline. Every funded grant or sponsor becomes part of your case study library.
Send us your business name and a one-line description. We'll run a sample pass and reply within 48 hours with the top 5 funders we'd target. Free, no commitment, no follow-up unless you want one.
