From idea to submission: write stronger proposals with confidence

Grant Genius helps your team build coherent, convincing and evaluation-ready Horizon Europe proposals by guiding every stage of the writing process and letting you focus on content while we handle structure, formatting, and compliance.

The challenge

Writing a Horizon Europe proposal is one of the most demanding collaborative tasks in research.

Coherence

Keeping everything coherent

Evaluator fit

Understanding what evaluators expect and aligning with the call

Formatting

Formatting requirements eat up precious writing time

Collaboration

Coordinating multiple contributors is difficult

Our solution

Automatic formatting

Ensure a well-structured and formated proposal, without the hassle

Write directly into fields pre-mapped to Horizon Europe sections — the structure is handled for you. Focus on content; formatting is automated end-to-end.

Guided drafting interface

Stay aligned with the call

Understand what evaluators expect and check that every section addresses the call's requirements. Contextual guides, checklists, and AI support tailored to research proposals.

Manage repeated content

Build coherent proposals

Keep objectives, work packages, impact, resources and implementation fully aligned throughout the proposal. Define them once — updates propagate across the proposal.

Version control and diff

Collaborate without the chaos

Write together, collect feedback, track progress and keep everyone working from the same version. Export cleanly to DOCX, PDF, or LaTeX.

Export formats: DOCX, PDF, Markdown, LaTeX

Submit with confidence

Review your proposal, identify missing elements and complete final quality checks before submission.
