Get the best results: how to provide your document
Preferred formats
- Text-based PDF of the NOFO/FOA (you can select/copy text), DOCX, or TXT.
- If you only have a scan, OCR it first (Adobe Acrobat → Scan & OCR → Recognize Text, 300–400 dpi).
- Include the opportunity number and Assistance Listing (CFDA/ALN) if available.
- Very long docs? Split into three parts: (A) Overview/Eligibility, (B) Narrative/Activities, (C) Forms & Appendices.
Quick check: copy a date or dollar amount from the PDF—if it pastes cleanly, the text layer is OK.
Optional Fit Score: add your org profile
- Upload a simple org profile (YAML) with your service areas, beneficiary focus, capacity, cost-share ability, etc.
- No template handy? Copy the example below and save as org-profile.yaml.

FAQ
Do I need a ChatGPT account? Yes — it opens in ChatGPT; a free account works. Can you score our fit without the org profile? You’ll get the grant summary and eligibility without it. Upload the org profile (YAML) to enable the 0–100 Fit Score with rationales. It says the PDF is scanned — what do I do? OCR it first (Adobe Acrobat → Scan & OCR → Recognize Text) or split into shorter parts. Then re-upload the searchable PDF. Is this legal/financial advice? No — use it to analyze and organize. Always verify against the official NOFO/FOA and agency guidance. Will it submit through Grants.gov for me? No. It prepares summaries and checklists; you submit via the agency’s process/portal.
