3 Reasons Why Instrumentl is the Better Candid FDO

#1: Smart matching to active RFPs and foundation profiles:

While FDO puts the onus on you to identify good-fit funding opportunities, Instrumentl’s smart matching algorithm instantly pairs you with grants that best align with your project criteria. And there is no need to restart your search every time.

Create your project once and Instrumentl will continuously curate personalized funder recommendations based on your project. The result? 1.5x grant output and 3 hours/week saved in the first year of using Instrumentl.

#2: Robust Grant Tracking and Management

Instrumentl notifies you of all your upcoming deadlines and when funders change priority or submission requirements. FDO just can’t do this.

Zoom out and see your grant pipeline by year, application stage, and project to stay on track with your organizational goals. Impress your board with customizable PDF or CSV reports you can create in seconds.

#3: Easy collaboration across multiple users and projects

On Instrumentl, there's room for everyone. Invite teammates, create tasks, update statuses and stay in sync toward your next submission goal. Store all your your grant-related files in one place with Document Library.

Unlike FDO, Instrumentl has a modern user interface that anyone can master in an hour or less.
