GRNTS helps startups navigate subsidies and public funding across local, regional, national, and EU programs. We turn a confusing ecosystem into a clear shortlist — with deadlines, requirements, and next steps.
The Netherlands and the EU invest heavily in innovation. There are vouchers, incentives, and grant programs at every level. Yet for founders, the landscape often feels like a maze: rules differ per program, documentation requirements are scattered, deadlines are easy to miss, and comparing options is time-consuming.
That’s why many valuable programs remain underused. Startups end up leaving cash on the table — funding that could directly support product development and growth. And while advisors exist, early-stage teams often can’t justify spending money without knowing their real chances of success.
GRNTS also surfaces simple signals that help you prioritize — for example demand-based indicators (“hotness”) derived from search interest, so you can spot what’s trending and time-sensitive.
GRNTS was initiated by Roderick Reichenbach (Quantify Group, The Hague) after repeatedly seeing the same pattern: navigating subsidies requires an unreasonable amount of expertise, and a reliable finder across all levels simply wasn’t there.
GRNTS is in beta and continues to expand coverage. The longer-term direction is to progressively automate more of the “grant knowledge” step by step — so founders get accurate matches and clearer guidance with less friction.
GRNTS is an AI-powered platform that helps startups discover, understand, and prioritize subsidies and grants across local, national and EU programs.
A clear summary, key requirements, deadlines, and links to official sources — so you can decide quickly whether it’s worth pursuing.
GRNTS helps founders get clarity first. For programs that require specialist expertise, the platform can connect founders with third parties in a transparent way.
Expanding coverage and making the matching and guidance increasingly automated — while keeping the information practical, comparable, and founder-friendly.
