Smart Funding Application Template

Last week I delivered a DIY Digital Solutions workshop to some artist and nonprofit members of Business & Arts NL, focusing on prototyping in Coda. I used the 100 dollar voting template to figure out pain points and what we should build, and the results were this funding application tool.

One thing I heard over and over was that it sucks to rewrite the same application section for every funder. So this tool does two things to help:

  1. it drafts sections using AI, based on the funder requirements and a selectable set of data from the org; and
  2. it lets orgs reuse sections from previous applications and redraft based on the current application.

Pretty solid template for a 2-3hr build, something that I should probably spend some more time on. Happy to answer any questions about how it works.
