Question 1

What is Fundvert?

Accepted Answer

Fundvert is a funding discovery and application platform for African founders. It matches startups to grants, accelerators and investors they genuinely qualify for, drafts funder-tailored applications with AI, and tracks every submission in one pipeline.

Question 2

How does Fundvert match founders to funding?

Accepted Answer

Fundvert first runs an eligibility gate (sector, stage, region, requirements). For opportunities you are eligible for, it scores how well your startup aligns with what each funder actually rewards — producing a match percentage that reflects your likelihood of winning, not just qualifying.

Question 3

Does Fundvert write funding applications?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Fundvert drafts each application section using your documents and the specific funder’s priorities, applying researched best practices. It never fabricates metrics — missing facts are flagged for you to confirm rather than invented.

Question 4

Who is Fundvert for?

Accepted Answer

Fundvert is built for early-stage and growth-stage founders across Africa seeking grants, equity-free funding, accelerators, fellowships, and investment.

Question 5

How much does Fundvert cost?

Accepted Answer

Discovering opportunities and core matching are free. Some premium features — full match unlocking, expert calls, and application assistance — are paid, with pricing shown in the app.

Question 6

What types of funding can I find on Fundvert?

Accepted Answer

Grants, equity-free and non-dilutive funding, accelerators and incubators, fellowships, pitch competitions, angel and seed investment, venture capital, and development finance — across fintech, agritech, healthtech, edtech, cleantech and more.

Question 7

Which countries does Fundvert cover?

Accepted Answer

Fundvert focuses on opportunities open to founders across Africa — including Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, Rwanda, Egypt, Tanzania and Uganda — as well as global programmes that accept African startups.

Question 8

Is there funding for women founders or youth-led startups?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Fundvert surfaces opportunities specifically for women entrepreneurs, youth-led teams, and social-impact ventures, and weights your match score by how well you align with each funder’s priorities.

Question 9

How is Fundvert different from a generic AI chatbot?

Accepted Answer

Fundvert knows what each specific funder rewards and drafts your application to those priorities, applies funding best practices automatically, and refuses to fabricate metrics — flagging missing facts instead. A generic chatbot has none of that funder intelligence.
