CUSTOMER STORY

Empowering a $1B+ Foundation to Scale their Grant Proposal Review Process with Vertesia

A leading philanthropic organization dedicated to funding, distributing, and measuring national conservation grants sought to incorporate Generative AI to improve the labor-intensive, manual grant review and issuance process.

The organization partnered with Vertesia to accelerate their grant proposal review process and address the following challenges:

  • 1000’s of submissions need to be reviewed, summarized, and scored by expert volunteers
  • Complex scoring rubric led to cumbersome evaluations
  • The process was highly-manual and took 8+ months to complete each program
  • Delays in grant approval decisions meant delays in funding
  • Expert volunteer burnout and churn
