CharityIQ is web software for UK charities covering grant discovery, AI-assisted application drafting, compliance, and impact reporting. Its Grant Finder matches UK registered charities with live opportunities using eligibility factors such as cause, beneficiaries, geography, income band, deadlines, and exclusions. Data comes from 360Giving, GrantNav, and direct funder feeds, with daily refreshes. Grant coverage is UK-wide, but automatic profile lookup currently uses the Charity Commission register for England and Wales; OSCR and CCNI lookups are listed as roadmap items. The AI grant writer drafts applications from charity data and funder criteria, links claims to sources, and provides inline editing and regeneration. A trustee sign-off workflow and audit trail support review before submission. Compliance tools include annual-return assistance, trustee-duty checks, deadline reminders, and drafting for SORP 2026-ready Trustees' Annual Reports. Impact reports support NPC, IRIS+, Outcomes Star, and theory of change, with PDF, Word, or web-link formats. A free Grant Finder is listed; paid plans start at £39/mo billed annually or £49/mo billed monthly for Starter.
Who it is for
