This tracker vs. GrantHub

GrantHub, from Foundant Technologies, is a well-known paid platform for nonprofit grant work, built to run the whole grant lifecycle for a development team — prospect research notes, proposal drafting and deadlines, a shared document library, and reporting tasks, sold as an ongoing subscription described on foundant.com/products/granthub. It is the kind of tool a grants team reaches for when the job is running an entire program across several staff members.

That is a different job from the one this page does. This tracker has no prospect database, no proposal workflow, and no document library. It exists for the narrower task that starts after an award is already signed: keeping the reporting deadlines and restricted balance on the awards you already hold somewhere you will actually check, with nothing to sign up for.

QuestionWhere to answer it
Where should we look for our next grant, and how do we manage a proposal through drafting and submission? GrantHub or a comparable paid platform — prospect research and proposal workflow are jobs this page does not attempt.
When is the next progress or financial report due on an award we already have? This tracker — enter the award date and reporting interval, get the current due date, and see it flagged overdue or due soon, with no signup.
How much of an award is still unspent, across several awards at once? This tracker — it turns each award's amount and spend into a restricted balance and sorts the whole list by which report needs attention first.
Do we need a shared document library, team assignments, or a record of grant history across a multi-person development team? GrantHub or a comparable paid platform — this page has no accounts, no team features, and remembers nothing about your organization between visits except what your own browser stores locally.

This tracker is deliberately the opposite shape from a subscription platform: nothing to sign up for, nothing billed monthly, and nothing typed here ever leaves your browser. That makes it useful for one small organization that just needs to stop missing a report on the awards it already has, and the wrong tool for a development team building out a formal, multi-person grants program — that is exactly the job a paid platform like GrantHub is built for.

It needs no account and no sign-in: it is a static page, the arithmetic runs in your browser, and once it has loaded it keeps working with the connection off.

Common questions

Should I use this tracker or a paid platform like GrantHub?

They answer different questions. GrantHub, from Foundant Technologies, is a paid subscription platform built to run a nonprofit's whole grant lifecycle — prospect research notes, proposal tracking, a document library, and team collaboration across a program, described on Foundant's own site. This tracker does none of that. It is a free, browser-only page for a narrower job: once you already hold an award, keeping its reporting deadlines and restricted balance somewhere you will actually check, with no account, no team features, and nothing uploaded. An organization building out a formal, multi-person grants program is looking for the wrong tool here; a coordinator who already has awards and just needs the next report date is in the right place.
