AI Funding · Service 13
Most grant consultancies charge for the proposal. Whether the funding comes through or not, the project rarely gets built. We secure the money and, if you want, we build it.
We are your public funding partner: we find the call, prepare the application and manage the file all the way to payment. And, unlike everyone else, we can stay and build what the funding finances.
An assigned team, filtered intel on relevant calls, funding strategy planning and 360 management of the file all the way to payment. We work on success: our variable fee is only charged when your money lands. Implementing what the funding pays for is optional — and we are the only firm in the sector that offers it.
Promise: We secure the money and, if you want, we leave it running. Implementation is yours if you ask for it — and nobody else in the sector offers it.

OKSound familiar?
You paid a grant consultancy that handed you a memo. The funding came (or not). The project was never built.
The classic model has a structural problem: they charge for writing, not for the money arriving or anything getting built. It is the €50k slide deck stamped by a public body.
- Your company has 2-3 grant files archived from years ago — and nothing ever reached production.
- The consultancy you hired got paid for the memo regardless of the outcome.
- You get "available grants" emails with no filter — 95% do not apply to your case.
- Your innovation team spends more time hunting funding than actually building.
- You know there is European money for AI but you have no in-house capacity to identify it, submit and manage the file.
How we ship it
Recurring partner. Success-based variable. Implementation optional.
A model inspired by the major funding consultancies in the sector, with one key difference: we can execute what we finance. You do not have to hire us for that — but the option alone sets us apart.
Continuous advisory (fixed monthly fee)
Filtered intel on calls, strategic meetings, funding strategy planning, proposal preparation. Covers everything before submission.
Submission + file management (success-based variable)
When we submit a proposal and it is approved, the variable is only charged once the funding hits your account, and adjusted to the final amount received. Zero variable if you do not get paid.
Implementation of what is financed (optional)
When the funding is granted, you can hire us to build what the money pays for. We scope it as a separate project under the relevant service. It is the option nobody else offers.
Communication + sustainability (included where applicable)
For calls that require or score dissemination and impact, we execute it with an in-house team inside the funded proposal itself. Close to a no-brainer: the grant pays for it.
→ Anyone will write you a memo. Only we put our fee on success AND can build what the money pays for. The traditional grant consultancy sells the first half; we deliver the second — the only half that matters.
Honest filter
Is this for you?
We don't sell to everyone. Here's who it works for and who it doesn't — so you can decide with criteria before signing.
It's for you if…
- Mid-market or enterprise companies with R&D, AI or digital transformation projects that qualify for funding.
- CFOs / finance leads who want to add public money to the financial plan without opening a new department.
- Companies that have already tried to get grants with classic consultancies and ended up with a memo and no result.
- Organizations looking for a recurring partner, not a one-off engagement — this is a 12+ month relationship.
It's not for you if…
- Micro-companies / freelancers without continuous R&D activity — the recurring model does not justify the ticket.
- Companies that just want "one-off advice on a specific call" — not our model.
- Anyone after strictly zero invoicing until payment lands — the fixed advisory fee is invoiced regardless.
The concrete delivery
What exactly do you get?
What you receive when the service ships. No "discovery phases" billed separately, no "iterations" without scope.
- Continuous, filtered intel on relevant calls (regional, national, European)
- Strategic funding plan over 12-24 months aligned to your company roadmap
- Full preparation and submission of proposals (technical memo + financial memo)
- End-to-end management of the file: appeals, interim and final justifications, all the way to payment
- Assigned team (account lead + technical lead) with monthly review meetings
- Optional modules: implementation of what the funding pays for + communication/sustainability package for calls that require it
The promise: We secure the money and, if you want, we leave it running. Implementation is yours if you ask for it — and nobody else in the sector offers it.

Frequently asked questions
The classic consultancy charges for writing the memo. Whether the funding lands or not, whether the project gets built or not, is not their problem. We work on success (variable only when you get paid) and we can stay to build what the funding finances. Implementation is optional — but only we offer it.
Continuous intel on relevant calls for your sector, monthly strategic meetings, funding strategy planning and proposal preparation/submission (technical + financial memo). It is continuous advisory, not project-based.
Zero variable. We only charge a percentage when your company actually gets paid. The fixed monthly fee covers our continuous advisory work regardless of the outcome of each call.
6 months from signing with monthly fee. If during that period a project is submitted as a result of the collaboration, the term extends to a full year. Automatic 12-month renewal unless one month notice is given.
Yes. If you decide to hire us to build what the funding pays for, it is quoted as an implementation project under the relevant service (Infrastructure, Data, Security, etc.). It is not included in the funding variable — but it is usually paid for with the grant money itself.
Many European and national calls require or score communication, dissemination and impact/sustainability packages. We execute them with an in-house team inside the funded proposal itself, scoped to fit — and they are almost always paid for with the grant money.
