About Crafty

Small groups do a lot of good with not much money, and a grant application can feel like a test written for someone else. Most of the work is knowing what the funder wants to hear, in how many words, and in what order.

Crafty does that part. You describe your project in your own words, and it turns that into an application that follows the funder’s rules and reads like you wrote it on a good day.

Why one fund

We started with National Lottery Awards for All in England because it’s the fund most small groups apply to first. Doing one fund properly, with its real questions, word limits and rules, is more useful than doing every fund badly.

What it does and doesn’t do

Crafty uses AI to write, so it’s fast, but it only writes from what you tell it. When it needs a fact it doesn’t have, it leaves a highlighted gap for you instead of guessing. You read everything, change what you like, and submit it yourself on the Fund’s own portal. Whether you get the grant is the Fund’s decision, and no one can promise it.

Who makes it

Crafty is made by Maxed Labs Ltd, a small UK company. If you have a question, an idea or a complaint, email [email protected].
