Why Nonprofits Love Expirely
Example testimonials from nonprofit grant professionals
"We switched from tracking everything in Excel and it's been transformative. Expirely keeps our team organized, we haven't missed a deadline, and the AI writing assistant is incredibly helpful. Best decision we made this year."
"After evaluating several grant management platforms, Expirely offered the best features at a price we could actually afford. The Research Center alone has helped us identify new funders we never would have found otherwise."
"The team collaboration features are excellent. Multiple staff can work on proposals simultaneously, we share content snippets, and everyone can see the status of each grant in real-time. Much better than our old email-based system."
