You won the federal award. Now the next deadline is coming.
You know what one federal application takes: 40 to 60 pages and about 116 hours. Winning adds the program itself and the reports, and the next deadline doesn’t move. NexGrant AI writes the complete application, fills in the SF-424 forms, checks it against the funder’s stated requirements and files it to Grants.gov after you approve it.
Sound familiar?
The program comes first
Reports, staff and the people you serve fill the week. The next application gets the hours that are left.
Rushed applications
Every application you rush is a renewal you risk.
A consultant per application
$15,000 to $25,000 buys one application, once.
One full-time writer files about 11 federal applications a year.
A federal application takes about 116 hours (von Hippel & von Hippel, PLOS ONE 2015, 195 applications). A full-time writer has about 1,880 working hours a year; with 70% of them spent writing, that is about 11 applications.
At a nonprofit, a writer at a $65,000 base salary (Grant Professionals Association, 2023 median) costs $92,990 a year fully loaded (BLS Employer Costs for Employee Compensation, March 2026).

Your team reviews. NexGrant AI writes and files.
In our own testing on 20 federal applications, staff time with NexGrant AI was under an hour per application, with the organization’s documents ready. That is our test, not a customer study.
Your team still reviews every page and approves before anything is filed.
Done for you:
- The complete application, from narrative to budget justification
- SF-424 and the other federal forms filled in
- Checked against the funder’s stated requirements before you see it
- Filed to Grants.gov after your approval
